A brick is dropped from rest from the top of a building through air (air resistance is present) to the ground below. how does th

e brick's kinetic energy just before reaching the ground compare with the gravitational potential energy at the top of the building? set zero height at the ground level. the comparison cannot be made since the information of air resistance is not given. kinetic energy just before reaching the ground < gravitational potential energy at the top of the building kinetic energy just before reaching the ground = gravitational potential energy at the top of the building kinetic energy just before reaching the ground > gravitational potential energy at the top of the building

The correct option is this: KINETIC ENERGY JUST BEFORE REACHING THE GROUND IS LESS THAN THE GRAVITATIONAL POTENTIAL ENERGY AT THE TOP OF THE BUILDING.
When the object was on the top of the building, it has potential energy. This potential energy was converted to kinetic energy when the object started falling. In the process of falling, friction was present, which means that some of the energy will be converted to heat as a result of the friction. Therefore the kinetic energy of the falling object will be less than its potential energy, because some of the energy has been spent on friction.<span />

Lady_Fox [76]
     Your answer would be true. Because if we didn't have those pieces of evidence, we wouldn't know about a lot of the ancient civilizations that we know today without that. Small pieces of evidence like that can help us to determine how they lived, or what they used to do, or even what they ate.

Answer:

C-D

Explanation:

As you can see from the graph, the distance from A to B was from 0 m to 6 m in a duration of 3 seconds.

Divide 6 meters by 3 seconds to find the speed:

6 ÷ 3 = 2 m/s

B-C is not moving due to a straight line as said in the graph, so speed is

0 m/s.

There is also C-D since the car traveled from a distance of 9 meters

(6 -(-3) = 9) in 3 seconds too. (NOTE: The graph line going down does not mean it is slowing down, but rather going to a certain distance like going backwards)

Divide 9 meters by 3 seconds to get the speed:

9 ÷ 3 = 3 m/s

Between A-B, B-C, and C-D, C-D has the fastest speed recorded with 3 m/s.

A-D does not count here as the line has no connection between point A and point D.

Cheers!
