Conservation of Energy

In physics, the rule of the conservation of energy states that energy doesn’t disappear from the atmosphere; instead, it changes its form from one type to another. Energy is one of the most important physical quantities in nature, and it cannot be created or destroyed — only transformed.

You walk along the beach towards a dock while your friend rows a boat towards the same dock on a flat lake. Your friend's boat approaches the dock on a straight course, but also rotates about its center-of-mass since your friend is not pulling evenly on the oars. If you knew your own velocity (vwalker), the magnitude of boat's angular velocity (thetaboat), and radius vector from yourself to your friend in the boat (rfriend) at any given time, you could use the following equation to calculate the your friend's velocity: vfriend = vwalker + (thetaboat)k x rfriend where k is a unit vector in the vertical direction. True False
