Yes, The total amount of energy will always be constant. That is that GPE + KE = Total Energy - external forces(friction, sound, heat, etc.)

Which of the conservation law does not apply to an inelastic collision?

Both conservation laws are applied. The conservation of momentum and conservation of energy. However, in an inelastic collision, kinetic energy is not conserved. But total energy IS CONSERVED and the principle of conservation of energy does hold.


In everyday life where can apply simple pendulum?

You can apply a simple pendulum to measure time intervals, such as cooking time or timing activities like exercises or studying. Additionally, it can be used to demonstrate principles of physics in educational settings, such as learning about oscillation, frequency, and gravity.


How does the conservation law apply to energy conservation?

The conservation law applied to energy conservation states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another. This means that the total amount of energy in a closed system remains constant over time. Energy conservation involves reducing the amount of energy wasted or lost in various processes to preserve resources and minimize environmental impact.


How does the law of conservation of energy apply to machines?

The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed or transferred. In machines, energy input is converted into various forms, such as mechanical energy, thermal energy, or electrical energy based on the machine's function. Thus, the total energy input must equal the total energy output in a machine, in accordance with the law of conservation of energy.


How does the law of conservation of energy apply to the coal power plant?

The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another. In a coal power plant, the energy stored in coal is converted into thermal energy through combustion, which is then used to generate electricity. This process abides by the principle of conservation of energy.

What would happen if you let a pendulum go on swinging?

Obviously, it will stop after sometime , after swinging. It is because we cannot apply energy continuously to the swinging pendulum.

Does the law of conservation apply to death?

No, the law of conservation of energy does not directly apply to death as it pertains to the physical transfer and transformation of energy. However, matter and energy are not created or destroyed in death, but rather transformed, as the body decomposes and returns to the environment in various forms.

How does the law of conservation not apply to the energy of stars?

conservation laws do apply to stars, as mass/energy is conserved by the formula E(energy) = M(mass) x C squared (speed of light), this happens as a nuclear fusion reaction when the hydrogen molecules in the stars and fused to make Helium, some mass is lost (converted to energy). cheers


How does the law of conservation apply to a game of pool?

There are several laws of conservation; please clarify which one you mean. For example, there is the law of conservation of mass, of energy, of momentum, of rotational momentum, of electrical charge, and others.


In what situations does the law of conservation of energy not apply?

In general Conservation of Energy does not hold internal to a system, it only holds at the boundary of the system. This is where the limits of the system are. Internal to the system energy is not conserved. The situations where the Conservation does not apply is where the force is not zero or the first derivative of energy is not zero.
