Difference in energy can help us determine amount of work that was done, and in a thermo-isolated system it can be expressed as:
$$
W=E_1-E_2
$$
Where a positive work means that a work has been done by a body, and will therefore have lower final energy that the initial one and vice versa.
The form of energy in a wound-up watch spring is mainly elastic potential energy.\
noindent
A mechanical watch is driven primarily by gears but source of its energy is still wound-up watch spring. Thus, the forms of energy in a mechanical watch are rotational kinetic energy and elastic potential energy.\
noindent
Most of the energy generated by wound-up watch spring is converted to rotational kinetic energy that drives arms of the watch. However, due to friction, some of it is converted to thermal energy

b. Same. Even though the relative measurements of height is different, the change in height, measured at the two different reference level, is the same thus the change in potential energy is also the same.

$$
K = dfrac{1}{2} mv^{2}

Since both the mass $m$ and the squared velocity $v^2$ can’t be negative, the kinetic energy will always be positive.

Increasing the sprinter’s velocity by a factor of 3
$$
frac{1}{2}m(3v)^2 = frac{1}{2}m(9v^2) = 9left(frac{1}{2}mv^2right) = 9KE
$$
Thus, $boxed{text{the kinetic energy increases by a factor of 9}}$
First one is that the ability to bend allowed pole-vaulters to change their trajectory more smoothly therefore $textbf{decreasing the losses of energy}$ due to the sudden changes of direction of movement and secondly:
The elasticity of the fiberglass poles allowed them to $textbf{store more elastic potential energy}$ that came in the form of horizontally directed kinetic energy into the gravitational potential energy that was vertically directed allowing the vaulters to conquer bigger heights.
b. Since the collision is inelastic (the smashed clay ball stick to the hockey puck), the kinetic energy is not conserved.
b. Kinetic energy is not conserved


(b) The kinetic energy of the block decreases as it moves upward the slope and gain potential energy. At the top of the slope, the potential energy is at the maximum and the kinetic energy is 0.
(b) The work applied by the breaks is less than the kinetic energy of the car. Thus, the car’s wheels still skid despite the breaks being applied.
(b) The work applied by the breaks to stop the car from moving is greater than or equal to the kinetic energy of the car.
$$
W=E_k
$$
Kinetic energy can be expressed as:
$$
E_k=frac{mv^2}{2}
$$
From this equation we can see that for the same velocity, greater kinetic energy will have an object with $textbf{higher mass}$. In our case that is $textbf{truck}$, which means that we need to put in more work for the truck to reach that velocity than we have to for a car.
There are two significant mechanisms of that transformation; one is by $textbf{plastic deformation}$ of material, and the other is by $textbf{vibration}$ of molecules in the material. Both of the mechanisms in the end result in the energy being dissipated as a $textbf{heat}$.
Therefore we can write the total energy equation as:
$$
E_{total}=E_k+E_p
$$
Total energy of a system $textbf{doesn’t change}$ by itself, but if we set the limits of our system in a way that it includes the work being done on our system we can see that the total energy needs to increase:
$$
W=Delta E_{total}
$$
With positive work (work done on a system) the total energy of that system increases. With potential energy decreasing, the only possible solution is that $textbf{kinetic energy increases}$ by the sum of the amounts that potential energy decreases plus the amount of the work done.
Therefore we can write the total energy equation as:
$$
E_{total}=E_k+E_p
$$
Total energy of a system $textbf{doesn’t change}$ by itself, but if we set the limits of our system in a way that it includes the work being done on our system we can see that the total energy needs to increase:
$$
W=Delta E_{total}
$$
With positive work (work done on a system) the total energy of that system increases.
We cannot however determine what happens to the kinetic energy because we don’t know the amount of work done on the system and the increase in potential energy which leaves the next equation with insufficient data:
$$
Delta E_k=W – Delta E_p
$$
W =Delta Kinetic Energy + Potential Energy
$$
The skater with larger mass will have larger kinetic energy thus the work needed to stop it must also be larger. Since the stopping distance is directly proportional to work done by the friction as shown in the equation below, the skater with the larger mass will have longer stopping distance.
$$
W = Fd
$$
b. Yes, since no work is done by the tension of the string on the mass, there is no change in its kinetic energy.
b. Yes
b. Dropping an object at a certain height. The potential energy stored by raising the object at a certain height is converted to kinetic energy as it drops.
c. Winding wound-up watch spring. The work is done by winding the wound-up watch spring, which, in turn, stores elastic potential energy.
d. An ideal gas pushing a piston upward. The work is done by the kinetic energy of the molecules of the ideal gas on the piston as it moves upward. This significantly reduces the kinetic energy of the ideal gas without decreasing its potential energy.

$$
When we insert equations for kinetic and potential energy we get:
$$
0.5cdot mv^2=mgh
$$
$$
h_0=frac{v^2}{2g}
$$
When we insert twice the bigger velocity we get:
$$
h=frac{(2v)^2}{2g}
$$
$$
h=4cdot frac{v^2}{2g}
$$
We can notice that we have $h_0$ and isolate it:
$$
boxed{h=4cdot h_0}
$$
Which means that height needs to be $textbf{four times greater.}$
h=4cdot h_0
$$
Since the kinetic energy of the roller coaster at the bottom of the track is equal to its potential energy at the top of the track, we can express it as follows
$$
KE_{text{max}} = PE_{text{max}}
$$
$$
frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh
$$
noindent
Isolating $h$ on one side of the equation
$$
h = frac{v^2}{2g}
$$
noindent
By doubling the speed of the roller coaster
$$
frac{(2v)^2}{2g} = frac{4v^2}{2g} = 4 left( frac{v^2}{2g} right) = 4h
$$
noindent
Thus, to double the speed of the roller coaster, the height of the top of the track must increase by a factor of 4
First we determine the kinetic energy of the ball thrown straight down (we will refer to this as the first ball). The maximum kinetic energy of the first ball can be expressed as
begin{equation}
KE_1 = mgh + frac{1}{2}mv^2
end{equation}
noindent
We then compute for the kinetic energy of the ball thrown straight up (we will refer to this as the second ball). The maximum kinetic energy of the second ball can be expressed as
begin{equation}
KE_2 = mg(h+d)
end{equation}
noindent
where $d$ is the distance travelled by the ball as it was thrown straight up. We will compute for this as follows
begin{equation}
d = vt – frac{1}{2}gt^2
end{equation}
noindent
Since we know that $v = gt$, then we can plug in $t = frac{v}{g}$ to Equation (3)
$$
d = vleft( frac{v}{g} right) – frac{1}{2}gleft( frac{v}{g} right)^2
$$
$$
d = left( frac{v^2}{g} right) – frac{1}{2}gleft( frac{v^2}{g^2} right)
$$
$$
d = left( frac{v^2}{g} right) – left( frac{v^2}{2g} right)
$$
begin{equation}
d = frac{v^2}{2g}
end{equation}
noindent
Pluggin in Equation (4) to Equation (2), we now have
$$
KE_2 = mg(h+frac{v^2}{2g})
$$
begin{equation}
KE_2 = mgh + frac{1}{2}mv^2
end{equation}
noindent
Comparing Equation (1) and (5), we can conclude that the kinetic energies of the balls are the same. Since the kinetic energies and the masses of the ball is similar, their speeds as they strike the ground is also the same.

E_k=frac{mv^2}{2}

When we insert values we get:
$$
E_k=frac{1600cdot 12.5^2}{2}

Inserting values in SI units we get:

$$
$$
boxed{E_{k1}=2250,,rm{J}}
$$
$$
E_{k2}=frac{mv_2^2}{2}
$$
Inserting values we get:
$$
E_{k2}=frac{45cdot 5^2}{2}
$$
$$
boxed{E_{k2}=562.5,,rm{J}}
$$
$$
frac{E_{k1}}{E_{k2}}=frac{2250}{562.5}
$$
$$
boxed{frac{E_{k1}}{E_{k2}}=4}
$$
We can se that the ratio is $4$ which is square of the increase of velocity ($2$) which makes sense because the velocity is under the square in the equation for the kinetic energy.
E_{k1}=2250,,rm{J}
$$
$$
E_{k2}=562.5,,rm{J}
$$
$$
frac{E_{k1}}{E_{k2}}=4
$$
The kinetic energy:
$K_a = (1/2) m v_a^2$
$K_a = (1/2) * (45) * (10.0)^2$
$K_a = 2250 J$
b)
$K_b = (1/2) m v_b^2$
$K_b = (1/2) * (45) * (5.0)^2$
$K_b = 563 J$
c)
$ratio = dfrac{K_b}{K_a} = dfrac{563}{2250} = dfrac{1}{4}$
The kinetic energy is proportional to $v^2$ and the ratio of $v_b$ to $v_a$ is $dfrac{1}{2}$, therefore the ratio of the $dfrac{K_b}{K_a}$ will be $(dfrac{1}{2})^2 = dfrac{1}{4}$.
b) 563 J
c) $dfrac{1}{4}$
$$
E_{comb}=frac{(2m)v^2}{2}

The mass is taken as $2m$ since that is their combined mass. Now we can insert values:

E_{comb}=frac{(2cdot 45)cdot 10^2}{2}
$$
$$
boxed{E_{comb}=4500,,rm{J}}
$$
$$
m_{comb}=2cdot m
$$
Because we combined masses of both girls and each of them weights $m$. Now we can proceed to the ratio:
$$
frac{m_{comb}}{m_{Katia}}=frac{2cdot m}{m}
$$
We don’t even have to insert values to get:
$$
boxed{frac{m_{comb}}{m_{Katia}}=2}
$$
$$
frac{E_{comb}}{E_{Katia}}=frac{0.5cdot (2cdot m)cdot v^2}{0.5cdot mcdot v^2}
$$
We can eliminate $0.5$ multiplier, $m$ and $v^2$ to get:
$$
boxed{frac{E_{comb}}{E_{Katia}}=2}
$$
E_{comb}=4500,,rm{J}
$$
$$
frac{m_{comb}}{m_{Katia}}=2
$$
$$

$$
boxed{E_{kf}=2.55cdot 10^8,,rm{J}}
$$
$$
E_{kf}=frac{mv^2}{2}

From this we can get speed:
$$

textbf{Given:} \
$m_1 = 5.00 times 10^{-3} text{g}$ \
$m_2 = 10.00 text{kg}$ \
$u_1 = 100.0 frac{text{m}}{text{s}}$ \
$u_2 = 0 frac{text{m}}{text{s}}$
$v_1 = -99 frac{text{m}}{text{s}}$ for Part (b) \
textbf{Calculation:}\
We calculate the change in momentum of the bullet using the equation below
begin{equation}
Delta p_1 = m_1v_1 – m_1u_1
end{equation}
To solve for $u_1$, we can express the conservation of momentum of the system as follows
$$
m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = (m_1 + m_2)v_1
$$
Isolating $u_1$ on one side of the equation
$$
v_1 = frac{m_1u_1 + m_2u_2}{m_1 + m_2}
$$
Plugging in the given values, we have
$$
v_1 = frac{(5.00 times 10^{-3}) cdot (100.0) + (10.0) cdot (0)}{(5.00 times 10^{-3}) + ((10.0))}
$$
$$
v_1 = -0.0500 frac{text{m}}{text{s}}
$$
Plugging in the given values and the calculated $v_1$ into Equation (1)
$$
Delta p_1 = (5.00 times 10^{-3})(-0.0500) – (5.00 times 10^{-3})(100.0)
$$
$$
boxed{Delta p_1 = -0.500 text{kg} cdot frac{text{m}}{text{s}}}
$$
textbf{(b)} \
Plugging in the given values to Equation (1)
$$
Delta p_1 = (5.00 times 10^{-3})(-99) – (5.00 times 10^{-3})(100.0)
$$
$$
boxed{Delta p_1 = -0.995 text{kg} cdot frac{text{m}}{text{s}}}
$$
The block end up with a greater speed in $boxed{text{Case (b)}}$. Since the loss of momentum to the bullet is larger in Case (b) than in Case (a), the momentum transferred to the block is also larger. Since momentum is directly proportional to velocity, the velocity of the block in Case (b) is also larger than in Case (a)
(b) $Delta p_1 = -0.995 text{kg} cdot frac{text{m}}{text{s}}$

From Chapter 10, we know that efficiency is given by the equation below
$$
e = frac{W_o}{W_i} times 100
$$
$$

$$
Isolating $d_e$ on one side of the equation, we have
$$
d_e = frac{F_rd_r}{eF_e} x 100
$$
Plugging in the given values
$$
d_e = frac{(15) cdot (0.33)}{(75) cdot (0.10)} x 100
