A. when it reaches the top of its flight

potential energy increases as the height of the object does, and the highest point of a ball's flight is when it reaches the top.

Answer:

A.when it reaches the top of its flight

Explanation:

The potential energy of an object is given by:

U=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

h is the heigth at which the object is located above the ground

Therefore, we see that the higher the object, the larger its potential energy: this means that the ball will have the greatest potential energy at the top of its trajectory.

A 9.0 kg bowling ball races down the lane at 15 m/s before striking a bowling pin (at rest) with a mass of 0.85 kg. If the 0.85
artcher [175]

Answer:

v = 10.75\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The system ball-pin is modelled by the Principle of Moment Conservation:

(9\,kg)\cdot (15\,\frac{m}{s} ) + (0.85\,kg)\cdot (0\frac{m}{s} ) = (9\,kg)\cdot v + (0.85\,kg)\cdot (45\,\frac{m}{s} )

The velocity of the bowling ball after the collision is:

v = 10.75\,\frac{m}{s}

What do you understand by  leverage?

The employment of various financial instruments or borrowed cash, or leverage, is an investing strategy that aims to improve an investment's potential return. The level of debt a company utilizes to finance its assets is another definition of leverage.

It offers a range of funding options so that the company can reach its desired earnings. Leverage is a crucial investing strategy because it enables businesses to establish a ceiling for the growth of their operations.

Leverage can be used, for instance, to support financially a new business. Purchasing fixed assets or borrowing money in the form of a loan from another business or person can serve as examples of leverage.

a 4kg metal block absorbs 5000j of energy and increases to a temperature of 22°c. the metal has a specific heat capacity of 250j
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

17 °C

Explanation:

From specific Heat capacity.

Q = cm(t₂-t₁)................. Equation 1

Where Q = Heat absorb by the metal block, c = specific heat capacity of the metal block, m = mass of the metal block, t₂ = final temperature, t₁ = Initial temperature.

make t₁ the subject of the equation

t₁ = t₂-(Q/cm)............... Equation 2

Given: t₂ = 22 °C, Q = 5000 J, m = 4 kg, c = 250 J/kg.°c

Substitute into equation 2

t₁ = 22-[5000/(4×250)

t₁ = 22-(5000/1000)

t₁ = 22-5

t₁ = 17 °C
