First, we need to fight the weight of the balls instead of their mass.  We do this by multiplying their weight it kg by 9.8.  This gives us .98 N.  To find the potential energy of the rolling ball, we find its kinetic energy.  The formula for this is KE=mass*velocity^2*1/2.  

Plugging in our numbers, we have Kinetic energy = .1 * 1^2*1/2 which gives us .05 joules.

Now we find the potential energy of the ball on the shelf.  For this we do:

Potential energy = .1*9.8*1, and our answer is .98 joules.  Clearly, the ball on the shelf has more energy.

Julie's psychologist helped her get over her fear of spiders. Which goal of psychology has the phycologist met ?
lord [1]
<span>The four goals of psychology are: describe observed phenomena, explain them, predict what may occur as a result of them and control behaviour as a result. Julie’s psychologist has helped Julie control her behaviour - her fear response to spiders - so they have met the ‘control behaviour’ goal of psychology.</span>
