At the highest point: kinetic energy is 0 due to the speed  is 0

So the total mechanical energy is 20

Assume no frictions present, then the mechanical energy is conserved

So at the lowest point, kinetic energy = mechanical energy - potential energy

Answer will be 20 - 0.5 = 19.5 J

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Let R1= resistance of 4ohms

R2= resistance of 8ohms

Equivalent resistance R will be

R=R1 + R2

=> 4+8=12ohms

The current through the two resistors will be the same since they are connected in series. Notwithstanding, the voltage will drop to appreciate the change.

A small child has a wagon with a mass of 10 kilograms. The child pulls on the wagon with a force of
Sholpan [36]
F=ma
where:
F - force
m - mass
a - acceleration 

We transform this formula to get a:
a= \frac{F}{m}
a=\frac{2}{10}\frac{N}{kg}=0.2\frac{m}{s^{2}}

Mary was looking out of the window she saw lightening and then heard thunder a few seconds later explain why she saw lightening
alekssr [168]

Explanation:

It is based upon the fact that " The light travels faster then sound." As the speed of light is faster then the speed of sound, light travels 300,000 km per second and sound travels 1192 km per hour. That is why we observe the lightening first and hear the the sound of thunder later.

        You can do this experiment by yourself. Once you see the lightening start counting the seconds until you hear the sound of thunder.Then divide the seconds by 5, you will find out how many miles away the lightening strike was.
