The correct answer is:
An apple falling from a tree is transitional kinetic energy
Explanation:
The energy of motion of a body, according to the work it would do if it were produced to rest. The translational kinetic energy depends on motion through space, and for a determined body of regular mass is equal to the output of half the mass times the intersection of the speed. and translational (the energy due to a motion from one position to another.
Answer: Option (e) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
There are three types of kinetic energy which are vibrational, rotational and translational kinetic energy.
A plucked string on a guitar will produce sound and it represents vibrational kinetic energy.
The moving blades of a ceiling fan shows the rotation of blades and it represents rotational kinetic energy.
A spinning top also displays rotation therefore, it represents rotational kinetic energy.
A tuning fork struck on a rubber block will produce sound and it will vibrate. Therefore, it represents vibrational kinetic energy.
An apple falling from a tree shows that apple is linearly falls on the ground therefore, it represents translational kinetic energy.
Thus, we can conclude that an apple falling from a tree is the best example which represents translational kinetic energy.
