Questions Related to energy for everything

A wound spring has:

  1. chemical energy

  2. magnetic energy

  3. mechanical energy

  4. muscular energy


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

A wound spring has mechanical energy.

The form of energy that water stored in a dam primarily has is :

  1. muscular energy

  2. kinetic energy

  3. potential energy

  4. magnetic energy


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

the water in dam is stored is standing still, it isn't moving. 

Thus, it has potential energy.

Which of the following quantity is different from others ?

  1. Work

  2. Kinetic energy

  3. Force

  4. Potential energy


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Force has a unit of newton while K.E ,work and potential energy occurs due to some applied force,and their unit is joule.

The flowing water of a river possesses ...... energy.

  1. gravitational

  2. potential

  3. electrical

  4. kinetic


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Water, like many substances, contains two kinds of energy. The first kind of energy is called kinetic energy. This is energy that is used during the execution of processes, such as movement. Because of kinetic energy water can flow and waves can exist.
But water can also contain potential energy. This is energy that is stored in the water. Stored, but not used. This energy can become useful when water starts to flow. It will be transferred to kinetic energy and this will cause movement.
so it is clear that flowing water have kinetic energy .

so best possible answer is option D.

The form of energy stored in kerosene is :

  1. Chemical

  2. Heat energy

  3. Magnetic

  4. Mechanical


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

When kerosene burns its hydrocarbons react with oxygen and produces heat and light energy, so some chemical enwrgy is stored in the kerosene because energy can neither b created nor b destroyed.

So best option is option A.

When you climb a staircase, you spend______ energy and gain ____energy.

  1. Kinetic - potential

  2. Chemical - electrical

  3. Muscular - kinetic

  4. Muscular - potential


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

When someone climb staircase then he has to do so physical work, so some muscular energy is spemt, also if his relative position wrt earth chamges so some gain in kinetic energy of the body, body was initial at rest amd finaly at rest so no kinetic energy is gained or lost.

So best possible answer is option D.

Which of the following may no be conserved for an isolated system 

  1. Energy

  2. Potential energy

  3. Mechanical energy

  4. Kinetic energy


Correct Option: B,C,D
Explanation:

In an isolated system only $T.E$ is conserved $M.E$ can not be conserved in case of inelastic collision$.$ Some energy is converted into heat$.$ and sum of $P.E,K.E$ and lost energy remains const$.$

Hence,
option $b,c,d$ is correct answer.

Muscular energy is form of chemical energy. 

  1. True

  2. False


Correct Option: A

What energy does the person possess while climbing a hill?

  1. Potential Energy

  2. Kinetic Energy

  3. Only muscular energy

  4. Both (A) and (B)


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Both potential energy (due to going up against the force of gravity) and kinetic energy (because of movement of the body).

A fish swimming in water possess mechanical energy.

  1. True

  2. False


Correct Option: A
