James and Juan were at the highest point in the football stadium, dropping water balloons on people below. Many of the balloons

did not break, so the boys added more water to the balloons. What impact did adding water have on the balloons' potential energy? A) It had no impact; it just made the balloons bigger. B) The gravitational potential energy increased because the mass increased. C) The gravitational potential energy decreased because the diameter increased. D) The gravitational potential energy remained constant because they did not increase the height.

When you add more water to the balloon, it makes it heavier. Therefore it would weigh the balloon down ( increasing mass) and increasing the energy to plummet down. So the answer is B.

A 0.717kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant 19.32N/m. While the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it wit
hjlf

Answer:

15.38 m.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the block is equal to potential energy of spring at maximum compression

1/ 2 m V² = 1 /2 K X²

m is mass of block , V is its velocity , K is spring constant and  X is maximum compression or its amplitude.

X = V\times\sqrt{\frac{m}{K} }

Putting the values

x = 79.856\times\sqrt{\frac{.717}{19.32} }

= 15.38 m.

Make changes in your environment that will discourage target behavior and encourage healthier choices.
VladimirAG [237]

Answer with Explanation:

If my target behavior is "smoking" then I'd suggest to ban places which allows smoking areas. This is a very effective way in order to address the behavior. People who violates this law will also be penalized and if they continue to violate it, then they will have to be brought to court. In such way, smoker's attention will be diverted to healthier activities. Instead of smoking outside, they can go jogging in order to relieve themselves from stress. They can also spend quality time with their family.

If they practice this every day, then it will gradually become a normal part of their routine until they totally give up smoking.

What is a watt second
Rzqust [24]
1 watt is a RATE of using energy ... 1 Joule per second. If you use energy at the RATE of 1 watt and keep it up for 1 whole second, you've used 1 whole Joule of energy. 1 watt-second = 1 Joule .
