Energy Smart

lion_sim_bob asked:


Rows of wind-powered generators are used in various windy locations to generate electric power. Does the power generated affect the speed of the wind? Would locations behind the windmills be windier if the windmills weren’t there? Discuss this in terms of energy conservation.

Peter Griffin asked:


I understand that energy is converted from one form to another and that the law of conservation of energy states that energy is not created or destroyed. However, I do not understand how energy is conserved if it seems to eventually dissipate. For example, when a top spins kinetic energy is not lost because it is transformed into thermal energy due to friction. When the top eventually stops and when the ground cools and everything seems to have reverted back to what it was before, how is energy still conserved?

Assume that at the top of a pole vault, the athlete’s speed is zero. The safety mat is 0.40m thick!

Apply the law of conservation of energy to determine the maximum speed with which the athlete lands after clearing the crossbar set at 4.6m

I realize that it might be a bit difficult because this will require both physics and sports knowledge, none of which I acquire
