8.Question 8You have shopping cart full of groceries and that cart is on a ramp. You are exerting an uphill force on the cart, so that the net force on the cart is zero. What energy transfer is occurring?1 pointIf the cart is moving, you are transferring energy to the cart.If the cart is moving uphill, you are transferring energy to the cart. If the cart is moving downhill, the cart is transferring energy to you.You are transferring energy to the cart, whether the cart is moving or motionless.No energy is being transferred between you and the cart.
Solution
Para responder a esta pregunta, es importante entender los conceptos de fuerza y transferencia de energía. Vamos a analizar cada opción:
-
"If the cart is moving, you are transferring energy to the cart."
- Esta opción es parcialmente correcta. Si el carrito se está moviendo, podría ser que estés transfiriendo energía al carrito, pero no necesariamente siempre es así.
-
"If the cart is moving uphill, you are transferring energy to the cart. If the cart is moving downhill, the cart is transferring energy to you."
- Esta opción es más precisa. Si el carrito se está moviendo cuesta arriba, estás transfiriendo energía al carrito para vencer la gravedad. Si el carrito se está moviendo cuesta abajo, la gravedad está haciendo el trabajo y el carrito podría estar transfiriendo energía a ti.
-
"You are transferring energy to the cart, whether the cart is moving or motionless."
- Esta opción no es correcta. Si el carrito está inmóvil y la fuerza neta es cero, no hay transferencia de energía.
-
"No energy is being transferred between you and the cart."
- Esta opción es incorrecta si el carrito se está moviendo. Si hay movimiento, hay transferencia de energía.
La opción más correcta es la segunda: "If the cart is moving uphill, you are transferring energy to the cart. If the cart is moving downhill, the cart is transferring energy to you."

The diagram shows the potential energy and kinetic energy of a roller coaster cart at a point located at the top of a large hill. If the cart is initially stationary it will have zero kinetic energy. Based on the height of the first hill the cart has 520 kiloJoules of potential energy.The point marked X represents the bottom of the hill where the cart's potential energy is equal to 0 Joules, but the kinetic energy is 480 kiloJoules.Based on the Law of Conservation of Energy which explanation provides support for what MOST LIKELY occurred?A 60 kiloJoules of kinetic energy were gained due to gravitational acceleration.B 40 KiloJoules of heat energy were released to the surroundings due to friction.C 420 KiloJoules of potential energy were transferred to heat energy.D 40 KiloJoules of chemical energy from fuel were released as heat energy.
