Please help me with the unit assessment i have no idea any of the answers
At the ground the ball will always have velocity along the direction of gravity. If upward motion is taken positive it will always have negative velocity at the ground because, if the ball was given an initial upward velocity then gravity will decelerate it and bring it down with a negative final velocity. If the ball is given an initial downward velocity then the ball will be further accelerated by gravity in the downward direction only, again maintaining negative direction. The magnitude however in both cases will be different. the final velocity at the ground will have higher magnitude in case of elevator moving downwards.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Answer A: A surface wave is a wave that travels along the surface of a medium.
Answer B, C: Electromagnetic waves are waves that have no medium to travel whereas mechanical waves need a medium for its transmission.
Answer D: The sentence in the answer D does not fit to the blank in the definition ( of the question )

Hope this answer can help you.
Answer:
1.56 J
Explanation:
The potential energy only depends on the vertical height from the ground level.
We consider the ground level to have zero P.E.
So when it is 2 m above the ground level,
P.E. = mgh
= 0.078×10×2
= 1.56 J
Answer:
Kinetic energy is energy possessed by a body by virtue of its movement. Potential energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position or state. While kinetic energy of an object is relative to the state of other objects in its environment, potential energy is completely independent of its environment.
