t during the bounce? (b) what is the ball's speed just as it leaves the ground after the bounce? (c) where did the energy go?

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>

What is matter? Give a grade 10/11/12 understanding.
lara [203]

Matter can be many things, but is mostly made of atoms. Atoms are small things that cannot be seen directly, as lights either passes through it or alters it. However, we know that atoms are made of 3 parts, those being the proton, neutron, and electron.

Protons have a positive electromagnetic charge.

Neutrons have no charge.

Electrons have a negative charge equal to the protons positive charge.

Protons and neutrons make up what's called the nucleus, which is orbited by the electrons.

Protons and neutrons also share another thing in common, that being their composition.

Until relatively recently, we thought that these were the smallest particles in the universe, and indestructible. However, modern discoveries have revealed that they are actually made of quarks and gluons.

These are actually indestructible, being part of the group that is elementary particles.

Make the following conversion. 34.9 cL = _____ hL. 0.349 0.0349 0.00349 349,000
AnnyKZ [126]
Hey there!

Here is your answer:

<u><em>The proper answer to this question is option C "</em></u><span><u><em>0.00349".</em></u>

Reason:

</span><span><u><em>1 L = 100 cL. Or 1 cL = 0.01 L</em></u>

</span><span><u><em>34.9 cL = 34.9 / 100 L = 0.349 L</em></u>

</span><span><u><em> 1 hL = 100 L. 0.349 L = 0.349 / 100 hL = 0.00349 hL</em></u>

<em>Therefore the answer is option C!</em>

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!

What is the velocity of an object that has been in free fall for 1.5s?
Crank

Answer:

D. 15 m/s downward

Explanation:

v = at + v₀

v = (-9.8 m/s²) (1.5 s) + (0 m/s)

v = -14.7 m/s

Rounded to two significant figures, the answer is D, 15 m/s downward.

A baseball is moving at a speed of 2.2m/s when it strikes the catchers glove. The paddding of the glove is compressed by 24mm be
Andre45 [30]

Average acceleration of the baseball: -101 m/s^2

Explanation:

Since the motion of the baseball is a uniformly accelerated motion, we can use the following suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the displacement of the object

For the baseball in this problem, we have:

u = 2.2 m/s is the initial velocity

v = 0 is the final velocity (it comes to a stop)

s = 24 mm = 0.024 m is the displacement of the ball while decelerating

Therefore, we can solve for a to find the acceleration:

a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\frac{0-2.2^2}{2(0.024)}=-101 m/s^2

where the negative sign means the baseball is slowing down.
