a) At a position of 2.0m, the Initial energy is
all made up of the potential energy=m*g*hi<span>
and meanwhile at 1.5 all its energy is also potential energy=m*g*hf
The percentage of energy remaining is E=m*g*hi/m*g*hf x 100
and since mass and gravity are constant so it leaves us with
just E=hi/hf
which 1.5/2.0 x100= 75% so we see that we lost 25% of the
energy or 0.25 in fraction
b) Here use the equation vf^2=vi^2+2gd
<span>where g is gravity, vf is the final velocity and vi is the
initial velocity while d is the distance travelled
so in here we are looking for the vi so let us isolate that
variable
we know that at maximum height or peak, the velocity is 0 so
vf is 0
therefore,</span></span>
vi =sqrt(-2gd) <span>
vi =sqrt(-2x-9.81x1.5) </span>
<span>vi =5.4 m/s
<span>c) The energy was converted to heat due to friction with the
air and the ground.</span></span>
They use Newton to measure force
Force = mass * acceleration = 1500kg * 8m/s²
4A. PE = MxGxH. (You can consider g as 9.8 / 10m/s as well)
509 J = 12x10xH
509 J = 120xH
H = 509/120
H = 4.24 m
Hope u got the answer....pls rate the answer if it is helpful for u....and I'm sorry I could not understand B part so I didn't do it.
Thank you
Answer:
Option C
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is the energy that the body possesses by virtue of its motion.
The formula for Kinetic energy is given by 
Using this formula let us find kinetic energy for the bodies given and find out which is the greatest
A) KE = 
B) KE =
C) KE = 
D) KE = 
Comparing these we find that 9mv^2 is the highest.
Hence option C is the answer.
