many types of energy. Mechanical Energy is the energy of motion that does the work like the wind turns a windmill. In physics‚ mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy present in the components of a mechanical system. It is the energy associated with the motion and position of an object. The law of conservation of energy states that in an isolated system that is only subject to conservative forces‚ like the gravitational force‚ the mechanical energy is constant. If

Mechanical advantage is a measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool‚ mechanical device or machine system. Ideally‚ the device preserves the input power and simply trades off forces against movement to obtain a desired amplification in the output force. The model for this is the law of the lever. Machine components designed to manage forces and movement in this way are called mechanisms. An ideal mechanism transmits power without adding to or subtracting from it. This means the ideal

Investigation Introduction In this essay I will be investigating upon the chosen sport of volleyball. In regards to this chosen sport‚ I will then create a fitness program which will assist me in excelling in the position of outside hitter (also known as the ‘power’)‚ in which the job of the outside hitter to is spike (or tip) the ball over the net when an offensive play is called.

This is fine for the television crews‚ but it really does not inform the public‚ or help parents who are wondering whether their child could be autistic‚ or
