The kinetic molecular theory of matter states that: ... Molecules in the solid phase have the least amount of energy, while gas particles have the greatest amount of energy. The temperature of a substance is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles.
Answer: velocity = -0.65 speed =0.65
Explanation:
Velocity =speed+direction speed =distance/time
From the geometry of the problem, the 20 m-long cable creates
the hypotenuse of a right triangle, with the extended of the other two sides of
size 20 m * cos(30 deg), which is around 17.3 m. Therefore, the ball has increased
by 20 m - 17.3 m = 2.7 m.
The potential energy will have altered by m*g*h, which is 1400 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 *
1.6 m , or about 37044 joules.
