Concept explainers
The energy transformed by the friction as the child slides down the slide.
Answer to Problem 29SSC
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The mass of the child,
The height of the slide,
The velocity of the child at the bottom of the slide,
Formula used:
The kinetic energy of an object of mass
And, the gravitational potential energy of an object of mass m and at height
Conservation of Mechanical Energy is given as,
Calculation:
Let the energy transformed by friction is
Using the given values in above,
Conclusion:
Thus, the energy transformed by the friction as the child slides down the slide is
