<span>when it returns to its original level after encountering air resistance, its kinetic energy is decreased. 
In fact, part of the energy has been dissipated due to the air resistance.

The mechanical energy of the ball as it starts the motion is:
</span>E=K = 100 J
<span>where K is the kinetic energy, and where there is no potential energy since we use the initial height of the ball as reference level.
If there is no air resistance, this total energy is conserved, therefore when the ball returns to its original height, the kinetic energy will still be 100 J. However, because of the presence of the air resistance, the total mechanical energy is not conserved, and part of the total energy of the ball has been dissipated through the air. Therefore, when the ball returns to its original level, the kinetic energy will be less than 100 J.</span>

What is the difference between current and voltage besides their units of measurement
kondor19780726 [428]
"Voltage" is the "pressure" that makes electrons want to leave where they are
and head in some direction, if there's conducting material in that direction.

"Current" is the rate at which they all migrate in that direction.

We can catch a rolling ball but not a flying bullet?? give reason
Triss [41]

Answer:

yeah this statement is tru

Explanation:

it is because the speed of the bullet is more than the speed of rolling ball .so from this reason we cannot catch a bullet.

The velocity of a body is given by the equation v= a + bx, where 'x' is displacement. The unit of b is .......
valina [46]

Answer:

s^ -1    ( or    1/sec)

Explanation:

Velocity is given in units of displacement / sec

like feet /sec   or   m/sec    

so b would have units of   s^-1

(or perhaps a more general term would be   time^-1)

A 1500kg car traveling at 25m/s skids to a stop. The force of friction between the tires and the road is 10500N. How far does th
ale4655 [162]

44.64m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the car = 1500kg

Initial velocity = 25m/s

Frictional force = 10500N

Unknown:

Distance moved by the car after brake is applied = ?

Solution:

The frictional force is a force that  opposes motion of a body.

To solve this problem, we need to find the acceleration of the car. After this, we apply the appropriate motion equation to solve the problem.

     -Frictional force = m x a

the negative sign is because the frictional force is in the opposite direction

m is the mass of the car

 a is the acceleration of the car

    a = \frac{frictional force}{mass} = \frac{10500}{1500} = -7m/s²

Now using;

   V² = U² + 2as

   V is the final velocity

   U is the initial velocity

   a is the acceleration

   s is the distance moved

  0² = 25² + 2 x 7 x s

  0 = 625 - 14s

  -625 = -14s

      s = 44.64m
