Question
Chapter 6, Problem 6.4P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:The energy transformation that occurs when you lift your textbook and drop it onto a desk needs to be explained.
Concept introduction:According to law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be created or destroyed;it can only transfer from one to another. The total energy of the universe is constant. Mathematically it is expressed as follows:
