प्रश्न
When an arrow is shot from a bow, it has kinetic energy in it. Explain briefly from where does it get its kinetic energy?
उत्तर १
When the string of a bow is pulled, some work is done, which is stored in the deformed state of the bow in the form of its elastic potential energy. On releasing the string to shoot an arrow, the potential energy of the bow changes into the kinetic energy of the arrow, which makes it move.
उत्तर २
A stretched bow possessed potential energy on account of a change in its shape. To shoot an arrow, the bow is released. The potential energy of the bow is converted into the kinetic energy of the arrow.
