Answer:

Explanation:
Kinetic energy, 
while potential energy, PE= mgh where m is the mass, v is the velocity of the ball, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.
The question requires kinetic energy hence we use the 
Since the figures are not given, we maintain that 
Answer:
Yes the frequency of the angular simple harmonic motion (SHM) of the balance wheel increases three times if the dimensions of the balance wheel reduced to one-third of original dimensions.
Explanation:
Considering the complete question attached in figure below.
Time period for balance wheel is:


m = mass of balance wheel
R = radius of balance wheel.
Angular frequency is related to Time period as:

As dimensions of new balance wheel are one-third of their original values


That's the description of the SOLID phase of matter.
