In what year was kinetic energy discovered by sir Isaac newton?

Kinetic energy was discovered by analyzing equations from Newton's law. In its present meaning, the recognition of kinetic energy dates back to the nineteenth century when Gaspard-Gustave Coriolis published a paper showing the mathematics of kinetic energy in 1829.


What is Heat of combustion for paper?

The heat of combustion for paper, which primarily consists of cellulose, is approximately 15-18 MJ/kg (megajoules per kilogram). This value can vary depending on the specific type of paper and its moisture content. When paper combusts, it releases energy through a chemical reaction with oxygen, producing carbon dioxide and water as byproducts. This property is significant in assessing the energy potential of paper waste in recycling and energy recovery processes.


Where does energy come from when paper burns?

Well think, if you burn a piece of paper, then energy is involved. Chemical energy is taking place when you burn a piece of paper. However, two more types of energy are also taking place. Thermal and radiant energy are also taking place because the fire burning the paper creates light (radiant energy) and it also gives off heat (thermal energy).


When we shred paper are the atoms taking in energy?

A little bit. To shred the paper takes energy to separate the physical structure of the paper. Some of that is absorbed by the atoms in the paper warming it up slightly.


What Chemical Reaction releases energy as the burning of paper?

combustion

Is a rubber band being stretched and being broken kinetic energy changing to potential energy?

Not really. You are breaking it, so you are simply using your kinetic energy on it. However, using a rubber band like a slingshot is. While the rubber band is tight, it contains potential energy. You transferred your kinetic energy to it as potential energy. When you release the rubber band and it does work such as shooting a wad of paper, that is converting potential energy into kinetic.


What are the names of the forces involved in flying paper airplanes?

Lift, weight, drag, skill and luck (to give it the right amout of kinetic energy).


What energy transformation occurs in stapling paper?

The mechanical energy from pressing down on the stapler gets transformed into potential energy as the staple is loaded into the stapler. When the stapler is activated, the potential energy in the staple is converted into kinetic energy to drive the staple through the paper.


What energy transformation takes place when you write?

The potential energy stored in your muscles is converted to kinetic energy as you move your hand to write. This kinetic energy is then converted to mechanical energy as your hand moves the pen on the paper to form letters and words.


Does a piece of paper have energy?

Yes, it is made of plant fibres (cellulose which is a sugar polymer) so it has chemical energy which will be released as heat if it is burned. It also has mass and that mass harbours potential energy in any gravitational field. If it falls towards the ground for any distance this potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy, the energy of mass in motion. It will also have a temperature (the micro kinetic energy of the vibration of its component atoms and molecules).


A paper airplane with mass 0.1 kg is flying 1.5 m above the ground with a speed of 2 ms. What is the total mechanical energy of the paper airplane?

The total mechanical energy of the paper airplane can be calculated as the sum of its kinetic energy (KE) and potential energy (PE). KE = 0.5 * mass * velocity^2 and PE = mass * gravity * height. Since the paper airplane is moving, it has kinetic energy. The total mechanical energy is KE + PE.


What kind of energy is a stapler?

A stapler requires mechanical energy to operate. When the handle is pressed down, it converts the mechanical energy into potential energy stored in the spring, which is then released to drive the staple through the paper.


What is one example of rolling friction?

rolling paper becuse it produce kinetic friction and kinetic energy


What energy transfered in a paper spiral?

In a paper spiral, energy is transferred in the form of mechanical energy as the paper spiral unwinds and falls due to gravity. This mechanical energy is converted into kinetic energy as the spiral moves.


2009 tnpsc group 2 question paper?

when the speed of a body is doubled its kinetic energy becomes kinetic energy = 1\2 mv^2 speed = velocity kinetic energy = 1\2 m (2)^2 kinetic energy = 2 m so hence the answer is kinetic energy is quadrapole.


What type of energy does a pencil have when you are writing?

A pencil would contain kinetic energy while it is moving, potential energy because it could be dropped and release energy that way, chemical energy because the chemical and atomic bonds in it could break and release energy, and slight heat energy because the friction of the graphite on the paper would cause frictional heating.
