An object is released from rest high above the surface of the earth. When it has fallen halfway to the surface, its kinetic ener

gy is KE1. After it has fallen twice as far, just before it hits the surface of the earth, its kinetic energy is KE2. 1) How does KE2 compare to twice KE1

Answer:

There will be an increase in the kinetic energy

Explanation:

A falling object converts the gravitational potential energy to the kinetic energy. The potential energy is then converted to kinetic energy followed by the conversation:

E_{p} = E_{k}

where Ep and Ek are potential and kinetic energies respectively.

This potential energy is then converted to kinetic energy. Halfway, the kinetic energy is equal to KE1.

However, the kinetic energy is given by the equation:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

As the velocity increases, the kinetic energy increases. Hence KE2 will be greater than KE1

When you let the air go out of a balloon the balloon moves or shoots like a rocket. Would this happen if there was no surroundin
Pie

Answer:

The balloon would still move like a rocket

Explanation:

The principle of work of this system is the Newton's third law of motion, which states that:

"When an object A exerts a force on an object B (action), object B exerts an equal and opposite force (reaction) on object A"

In this problem, we can identify the balloon as object A and the air inside the balloon as object B. As the air goes out from the balloon, the balloon exerts a force (backward) on the air, and as a result of Newton's 3rd law, the air exerts an equal and opposite force (forward) on the balloon, making it moving forward.

This mechanism is not affected by the presence or absence of surrounding air: in fact, this mechanism also works in free space, where there is no air (and in fact, rockets also moves in space using this system, despite the absence of air).
