What kind of energy is plate balancing on pole?
The kind of energy involved in balancing a plate on a pole is primarily potential energy. The plate has potential energy due to its height off the ground, and when balanced on the pole, it also has rotational potential energy. As the plate wobbles and shifts, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy and back into potential energy to maintain balance.
A pole -vaulter first converts kinetic energy into?
Elastic Potential Energy
What has more gravity the equator or north pole?
The North pole due to centrifugal force and its effects at the equator
What kind of energy does a pole vaulter have?
A pole vaulter has kinetic energy as they run with speed, potential energy as they use the pole to propel themselves upwards, and gravitational potential energy as they reach the peak of their jump.
Is it true that the suns radiant energy is strongest at the North Pole and the South Pole?
No, the sun's radiant energy is strongest at the Equator.
Why it is warmer at the equator at the north pole?
The equator receives more direct light sunlight than the north pole.
Are you more likely to survive in the north pole or the equator?
At the equator. Warmer climate, more plant and wildlife.
On June 21 why is there greater solar energy at the north pole than the equator?
On June 21, the North Pole experiences 24 hours of daylight due to the Earth's tilt towards the Sun. This means that the North Pole receives continuous sunlight and thus greater solar energy compared to the equator, which only receives sunlight during the day.
What energy changes occur in a pole vault?
In pole vaulting, the vaulter converts kinetic energy from their run into potential energy as they bend the pole and rise into the air. As the pole flexes, it stores elastic potential energy, which is then released to propel the vaulter upwards. At the peak of the vault, the potential energy is at its maximum before converting back into kinetic energy as the vaulter descends. Overall, the energy transformation is a dynamic interplay between kinetic, potential, and elastic energies throughout the vaulting process.
Which describes the relationship between potential and kinetic energy when a pole vaulter's pole has reached its maximum bend point?
When a pole vaulter's pole reaches its maximum bend point all the energy if the system is being stored as potential energy in the pole. Etotal = PE + KE. At this point KE is 0 so PE=Etotal. However, as the pole straightens out again, the stored PE is released as KE.
Is Antarctica to the south of the equator?
Yes. The arctic is at the north pole. The antarctic is at the south pole. The south pole is below the equator. The north pole is above the equator.
What energy conversions occur in a pole vaulter?
When the pole vaulter just passes over the bar, he/she is almost stationary, and certainly at the maximum height reached above the ground, so apart from a very small amount of kinetic energy as a result of passing over the bar, all the energy put into the vault is bound up in gravitational potential energy. During the approach, the jumper runs up so has acquired kinetic energy. Then during the vault he/she exerts force on the pole to gain height, and to convert the horizontal kinetic energy into a vertical direction. This force comes from the chemistry of the muscles of the body. So the overall conversion is from kinetic energy plus muscular chemical energy into gravitational potential energy, which is then converted back to kinetic energy on the descent.
