Answer:

c)wind

Explanation:

Wind from the given choices will have the greatest amount of kinetic energy.

Kinetic energy is the energy due to motion of a body. It is different from the energy at rest in a body.

  • Wind is air in motion.
  • Wind energy is a form of kinetic energy in motion.

A book on a table, a slice of pizza and a person at the top of the stairs are all at rest and will possess potential energy.

A 1400 kg wrecking ball hangs from a 20-m-long cable. the ball is pulled back until the cable makes an angle of 30.0 ∘ with the
anastassius [24]

From the geometry of the problem, the 20 m-long cable creates the hypotenuse of a right triangle, with the extended of the other two sides of size 20 m * cos(30 deg), which is around 17.3 m. Therefore, the ball has increased by 20 m - 17.3 m = 2.7 m. 

The potential energy will have altered by m*g*h, which is 1400 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 1.6 m , or about 37044 joules.

A gymnast is swinging on a high bar. The distance between his waist and the bar is 0.905 m, as the drawing shows. At the top of
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

5.959 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of gymnast

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

h_i = Initial height

h_f = Final height

From conservation of Energy

\frac{1}{2}mv^2+mgh_f=\frac{1}{2}mu^2+mgh_i\\\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}mv^2+mg0=\frac{1}{2}m0^2+mgh_i\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh_i\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2gh_i}

h_i=2r

v=\sqrt{4gr}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{4\times 9.81\times 0.905}\\\Rightarrow v=5.959\ m/s

Velocity of gymnast at bottom of swing is 5.959 m/s

what occurs when force is applied over a certain distance and motion is in the same direction as the force?
faltersainse [42]

An object in motion will continue to move in the same direction and with the same speed unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. states that forces occur as equal and opposite pairs. The strength of the force is related to the mass of the objects and the distance between them.
