Application of work energy theorem |
|
Answer» Answer: see below.. Explanation: Work-Energy THEOREM is very useful in analyzing situations where a rigid body moves under several forces. As we know that a rigid body cannot store potential energy in its lattice due to rigid structure, it can only POSSESS KINETIC energy. Thus the work done by any force acting on a rigid body is EQUAL to the change in its kinetic energy. This is the basis of work energy equation for rigid bodies. |
