Answer/Explanation:

The highest point of potential energy is A, when the ball rolls down the hill potential energy decreases and kinetic energy decreases, but the total energy is constant no matter what. This means the energy does not go away but instead is transferred to a different form.

A: most potential and least kinetic

B: losing potential gaining kinetic

C: losing more potential and gaining more kinetic

D: most kinetic and least potential

E: Gaining  potential and losing kinetic

F: Gaining more potential and losing more kinetic

G: more potential than kinetic but not the most potential

Answer:

Explanation:

As the ball moves from point A to C, the ball will accelerate. This is because the ball's potential energy is being converted into kinetic energy. At point A when the ball starts moving, its potential energy is at its maximum while its kinetic energy is at its minimum (but non-zero as the ball starts to move.) At point C, the ball's potential energy is less than its maximum while its kinetic energy is now more than its minimum.

Why do scientist study the natural world to find solutions to human<br> problems?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Science can not solve all of our problems. While scientific understanding can help battle things like disease, hunger, and poverty when applied properly, it does not do so completely and automatically. Furthermore, there are many areas of life where science can have little impact. Let us look at some of the reasons why this is so.  First of all, there is a huge difference between knowing something and acting on it. Science is concerned with accumulating and understanding observations of the physical world. That understanding alone solves no problems. Individual people have to act on that understanding for it to help solve problems. For instance, science has found that regular exercise can lower your risk of heart disease. Knowing this fact is interesting, but it will do nothing for your personal heath unless you act on it and actually exercise. And that's the hard part. Reading an article about exercise is easy. Getting into an actual routine of regular exercise is harder. In this sense, science really solves no problems at all. Problems are only solved when people take the knowledge (or tool, or pill, or whatever) provided by science and use it. In fact, many of humanity's biggest problems are caused by lack of action, and not lack of knowledge.

Take world hunger, for example. There is currently enough food produced on the earth every year to comfortably feed every single person. The world produces about 700 trillion grams of rice each year. With seven billion people on the planet, 365 days in the year, and about 40 grams per typical serving of rice, there is enough rice on the planet to feed every single last person seven servings of rice every day. And this is just rice. Similar numbers hold up for wheat, corn, meat, etc. Science has done an amazing job in the last 50 years of making farms productive. And yet, millions of people in the world still suffer starvation. Why? Because of actions. If all it took was science to solve problems, no one would go hungry anymore because there is enough food. We could fill books with the analysis of human actions that cause world hunger if we wanted to.

An ideal gas in a sealed container has an initial volume of 2.50 L. At constant pressure, it is cooled to 21.00 ∘C, where its fi
goblinko [34]

<u>Answer:</u> The initial temperature of the system comes out to be 147 °C

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the initial temperature of the system, we use the equation given by Charles' Law. This law states that volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}

where,

V_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial volume and temperature of the gas.

V_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final volume and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

V_1=2.50L\\T_1=?K\\V_2=1.75L\\T_2=25^oC=(25+273)K=294K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{2.50L}{T_1}=\frac{1.75L}{294K}\\\\T_1=420K

Converting the temperature from kelvins to degree Celsius, by using the conversion factor:

T(K)=T(^oC)+273

420=T(^oC)+273\\T(^oC)=147^oC

Hence, the initial temperature of the system comes out to be 147 °C
