The gravitational potential energy of the object is 100 J.

Gravitational potential energy stored in an object is the work done in raising the object to a height <em>h</em> against the gravitational force acting on it.

The gravitational force acting on a body is its weight mg, where m is its mass and g, the acceleration due to gravity.

Work done by a force is equal to the product of the force and the displacement made by the point of application of the force.

GPE = mgh

The weight of the object is given as 20 J and it is raised to a height of 5 m.

GPE =(mg)*h = (20 N)*(5m)=100 J

The gravitational potential energy of the object is 100 J.

A girl throws a ball of mass 0.8 kg against a wall. The ball strikes the wall horizontally with a speed of 11 m/s, and it bounce
Karolina [17]

Answer:

F = 352 N

Explanation:

we know that:

F*t = ΔP

so:

F*t = MV_f-MV_i

where F is the force excerted by the wall, t is the time, M the mass of the ball, V_f the final velocity of the ball and V_i the initial velocity.

Replacing values, we get:

F(0.05s) = (0.8 kg)(11m/s)-(0.8 kg)(-11m/s)

solving for F:

F = 352 N

1) The object slows down due to kinetic friction.
2) The coefficient of kinetic friction is higher on a carpet than on the bare floor, therefore the object would slow down quicker on the carpet
