Answer:

D) Some of the light passes through, and some of the light is absorbed or scattered by the object.

Explanation:

When light strikes translucent materials, only some of the light passes through them. The light does not pass directly through the materials. ... When light strikes an opaque object none of it passes through. Most of the light is either reflected by the object or absorbed and converted to heat.

Propose a hypothesis for how the position of the ball will affect the amount of its gravitational pull energy

Ray Of Light [21]

<em><u>throwing a ball up initially has a lot of kinetic energy because it is moving upwards ( kinetic energy is energy which a body possesses by virtue of being in motion.) this all then get converted to gravitational potential energy, and for a moment it is stationary before it begins to fall again. by the time it has returned again, all the gravitational potential energy has turned back into kinetic.</u></em>

A force of 30n is applied to a screwdriver to pry the lid off of a can of paint. The screwdriver applies 75n of force to the lid

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

The mechanical advantage of the screwdriver that is being described above is equal to 75N. This means that for every 30N that is applied on the screwdriver, this simple machine would in turn apply 75N of force to the lid of the can.

The data table below shows the distribution of the energies of a pendulum 0.60 s into its motion. What is the missing value?

ohaa [14]

The total energy (also called mechanical energy) is the sum of the kinetic energy and potential energy:
$TE = KE + PE$
For this pendulum, we see that at t=0.60 s the total energy is TE=0.918 J while the potential energy is 0.054 J, so the kinetic energy (the missing value in the table) is
$KE=TE-PE=0.918 J - 0.054 J =0.864 J$
