A pole -vaulter first converts kinetic energy into?

Elastic Potential Energy


Which describes the relationship between potential and kinetic energy when a pole vaulter's pole has reached its maximum bend point?

When a pole vaulter's pole reaches its maximum bend point all the energy if the system is being stored as potential energy in the pole. Etotal = PE + KE. At this point KE is 0 so PE=Etotal. However, as the pole straightens out again, the stored PE is released as KE.


What is the scientific term of polarity?

Polarity means, what kind of pole, which would either be an electrical pole with a positive charge and a negative charge, or a magnetic pole with a south pole and a north pole.


Where does thermal energy come from when a fire fighter slides down a pole?

When a firefighter slides down a pole the thermal energy comes from the friction between the two objects.


What will the speed of the upper end of a 3.25 m long pole be just before it hits the ground if the pole is balanced vertically on its tip if it starts to fall and its lower tip does not slip?

I believe the way you calculate this is to write up an equation for total energy when it is falling: on the one hand, there is the kinetic energy of the center of mass; on the other hand, the rotational energy (you need to know the moment of inertia of a pole for this). The total energy when it is falling must be a function of the speed (or rotational speed), and this total energy must be equal to the potential energy the pole had before it started to fall.

How do you win the balancing contest on reality tv island?

For the challenge "Balanced Diet" on Reality TV Island, fruit will be added to your pole that will cause it to tip over. To prevent this, move your cursor inside the balancing circle -- move the cursor toward the side AWAY from the side you are leaning toward. Keep your cursor there until the pole returns to near the center of the circle. Beware : the next change will usually tip the pole the other way, and you will have to move quickly to the opposite side. If the pole leaves the circle, it falls and you lose.
