In mechanical systems, energy exists in various forms and transitions through work and power. Match each physical scenario on the left with its corresponding energy classification or power characteristic on the right.
- A compressed coil spring inside an automotive shock absorberElastic potential energy stored through mechanical deformation
- A transport aircraft cruising at a steady altitude and airspeedSimultaneous presence of gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy
- Friction brake pads clamping a spinning wheel rotor to a stopDissipation of mechanical kinetic energy into thermal energy
- An electric hoist doing of lifting work every secondMechanical power delivery rated at ()
Cevap
The compressed spring matches with elastic potential energy stored through mechanical deformation; the cruising aircraft matches with simultaneous gravitational potential and kinetic energy; the friction brake pads match with the dissipation of kinetic energy into thermal energy; and the electric hoist lifting rate matches with a mechanical power delivery of 2 kilowatts.
Each scenario correctly illustrates a fundamental principle of work, energy, and power: deformation stores elastic potential energy; elevated motion embodies simultaneous kinetic and gravitational potential energy; frictional braking converts kinetic energy to heat; and a work rate of 2,000 joules per second represents 2,000 watts (2 kW) of power.
