Look at this relationship
GPE lost= KE gained + nonconservativework
so figure the air fricion losses from the changes in energy.
Hello,
During a lab where you race 2 cars downward on a 30* angle slope, we got graphics of the different energies in play. (Gravitational, kinetic and Total in depending on time). Afterwards, we need to answer this question: Calculate non-conservative work exerted by the force of air resistance for both cases (meaning for both cars).
So my question is, are the asking me to calculate
Wnc = deltaE?
thank you
