When an object in simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement, its <u>acceleration</u> is also at a maximum.
<u><em>Reason</em></u><em>: The speed is zero when the simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement, however, the acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. The velocity reverses the direction at that point therefore its rate of change is maximum at that moment. thus the acceleration is at its maximum at this point</em>

Answer:
(a) 5.43 x 10⁵ J
(b) 3.07 x 10⁵ J
(c) 45 °C
Explanation:
(a)
= Latent heat of fusion of ice to water = 3.33 x 10⁵ J/kg
m = mass of ice = 1.63 kg
= Energy required to melt the ice
Energy required to melt the ice is given as
= m
= (1.63) (3.33 x 10⁵)
= 5.43 x 10⁵ J
(b)
E = Total energy transferred = 8.50 x 10⁵ J
Q = Amount of energy remaining to raise the temperature
Using conservation of energy
E = + Q
8.50 x 10⁵ = 5.43 x 10⁵ + Q
Q = 3.07 x 10⁵ J
(c)
T₀ = initial temperature = 0°C
T = Final temperature
m = mass of water = 1.63 kg
c = specific heat of water = 4186 J/(kg °C)
Q = Amount of energy to raise the temperature of water = 3.07 x 10⁵ J
Using the equation
Q = m c (T - T₀)
3.07 x 10⁵ = (1.63) (4186) (T - 0)
T = 45 °C
Since we know that
Gravitational potential energy = mass × height ×gravity
then
GPE = 1.5 kg x 0.500 m x 9.8m/s^2
therefore
GPE = 7.35 J
Does height or distance affect impact?
You can test that and do your project about that or you can grow algae
