Sound waves need different media in order to travel. This travels by the movement of the atom transferred to another up to its destination. The speed of sound is greatest in solids since the molecules of solid are closely packed together, followed by liquid and they are slowest in gases.
It is called weathering. there are three different types of weathering, physical weathering, chemical weathering, and biological weathering. Your particular question is caused by chemical weathering.
The change in potential energy when the block falls to ground is -480J.
The maximum change in kinetic energy of the ball is 480 J.
The initial kinetic energy of the ball is 0 J.
The final kinetic energy of the ball is 0.148J.
The initial potential energy of the ball is 0.187 J.
The final potential energy of the ball is 0 J.
The work done by the air resistance is 0.039 J.
<h3>Change in potential energy when the block falls to ground</h3>
ΔP.E = -mgh
ΔP.E = -Wh
ΔP.E = - 40 x 12
ΔP.E = -480 J
<h3>Maximum change in kinetic energy of the ball</h3>
ΔK.E = - ΔP.E
ΔK.E = - (-480 J)
ΔK.E = 480 J
<h3>Initial kinetic energy of the ball</h3>
K.Ei = 0.5mv²
where;
- v is zero since it is initially at rest
K.Ei = 0.5m(0) = 0
<h3>Final kinetic energy</h3>
K.Ef = 0.5mv²
K.Ef = 0.5(0.0091)(5.7)²
K.Ef = 0.148 J
<h3>Initial potential energy of the ball</h3>
P.Ei = mghi
P.Ei = 0.0091 x 9.8 x 2.1
P.Ei = 0.187 J
<h3>Final potential energy</h3>
P.Ef = mghf
P.Ef = 0.0091 x 9.8 x 0
P.Ef = 0
<h3>Work done by the air resistance</h3>
W = ΔE
W = P.E - K.E
W = 0.187 J - 0.148 J
W = 0.039 J
