It's gravitational potential energy at the top will roughly equal it's kinetic energy when it was released (a little is lost to air resistance). Note this will assume the release point is zero potential energy. (we are free to define it that way, just letting you know). Gravitational potential energy is mgh.
mgh=25J
h=25J/(0.5kg x 9.81m/s^2) = 5.097m
So it goes about 5.1 meters above the point where it was released
Tornadoes are more common in the united states than in the other countries. united states received a total of 1,200 tornadoes annually, four times the amount seen in europe. most tornadoes in the united states occur east of the rocky mountains. the great plains, the midwest, the mississippi valley and the southern united states, are all areas that are vulnerable to tornadoes.
<span>Density can be determined by the
mass of an object and how much it takes up space (volume). It is represented by
the formula D = M/V where D is the density in kg/m^3 or lb/ft^3, M is the mass
in kg or lb and V is the volume in m^3 or ft^3. The answer would be A. For example, you are given the mass of an
object of 40.5kg and a volume of 15m^3. Find its density.</span>
D = M/V
D = (40.5 kg)
/ (15 m^3)
<span>D = 27/10 or
2.7 kg/m^3 </span>
Answer: The truck has a greater kinetic energy
Explanation:
The initial velocities of both the truck and car are the same. Likewise, the final velocity is the same. The change in kinetic energy is dependent only on mass. The truck has a greater mass, therefore, the change in its kinetic energy is greater.
