6 THE CONSERVATION OF ENERGY (Christiaan 1660)

A Mechanical
energy is not conserved when Kinetic
friction forces are
present (also if drag forces
are
presentl .

Ax : distance the
object stid which is
independent of the observer
.

* We would line to consider other when mechanical not conserved, and it's
common cases
energy is

not because of kinetic friction .

-

energy is
completely
destroyed .

A We make a distinction between


energy and mechanical energy because we
study the world

around us -
the MACROSCOPIC WORLD .

In the
microscopic world made
of particles line electrons
, protons ...
there is
nothing but mechanical

energy and its always conserved .

Our
mecroscopic perspective misses this
particles, we can't see them
,
we can't control them .
There are

many ways in which


energy escapes the
macroscopic objects we deal with .
This is
why our
objects may lose
energy after some
processes
