c. kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy d. elastic potential energy

5. The heated water is an instance of nonmechanical energy, because its mass is not displaced with a velocity or with respect to a
zero position, as would be the case for the various types of mechanical energy. The bicycle and football both have masses in
motion, so they have kinetic energy. The wound spring has been displaced from its relaxed position and so has elastic potential
energy, while the football is above the ground and therefore has a gravitational potential energy associated with it.

2. No, the roller coaster will not reach the top of the second hill. If the total mechanical energy is constant, the roller coaster
will reach its initial height and then begin rolling back down the hill.
3. a. yes b. no c. yes, if air resistance is disregarded

4. Answers may vary. The downward-sloping track converts potential energy to kinetic energy. Levers employ kinetic energy to
increase potential energy. Springs and elastic membranes convert kinetic energy to elastic potential energy and back again.
Mechanical energy is not conserved; some energy is lost because of kinetic friction.

3. Power equals energy transferred divided by time of transfer.

4. A powerful engine is capable of doing more work in a given time. The force and speed delivered by a powerful engine is large
relative to less powerful engines.

Chapter 5 review, PP. 184-188

1. No, a change in speed corresponds to a change in kinetic energy, which cannot occur without work (either positive or negative)
being done on the object.
2. a. yes, positive b. no c. yes, positive d. yes, negative

3. No, force would decrease, but distance would increase, which would keep work constant.
4. The tension is perpendicular to the bob’s motion, so it does not do work on the bob. The component of the bob’s weight that is
perpendicular to the bob’s motion does not do work on the bob, but the component that is in the direction of its motion does.
5. The car leaving longer skid marks was moving faster.
6. yes; no; yes, the ball’s weight and air resistance.

11. a. no b. yes c. yes

12. No, kinetic energy cannot be negative because mass is always positive and the speed term of the equation is squared.
13. yes, because potential energy depends on the distance to an arbitrary zero level, which can be above or below the object

15. The gravitational force does not do work on the satellite because the force of gravity is always perpendicular to the path of the
motion. The satellite’s speed must be constant.

17. Work must be done against gravity in order to climb a staircase at a constant speed. Walking on a horizontal surface does not
require work to be done against gravity.
18. The work done by friction equals the change in mechanical energy, so the particle’s speed decreases.

26. a. nonmechanical b. mechanical c. mechanical d. mechanical e. both

27. As the athlete runs faster, KE increases. As he is lifted above the ground, KE decreases as PEg and PEelastic increase (PEelastic
comes from the bent pole). At the highest point, KE = 0 and PEg is at its maximum value. As the athlete falls, KE
increases and PEg decreases. When the athlete lands, KE is at its maximum value and PEg = 0.

28. The ball will not hit the lecturer because, according to the principle of energy conservation, it would need an input of energy to
reach a height greater than its initial height. If the ball were given a push, the lecturer would be in danger.

29. a. Athlete does work on the weight. PEg increases.

b. No work done on the weight. PEg is constant.
c. Athlete does negative work on the weight. PEg decreases.

30. at the ball’s lowest height; at its maximum height

31. no, because energy wouldn’t be conserved

32. two, gravitational potential energy and elastic potential energy; yes, because total mechanical energy is conserved if there is no
dissipation of energy
