The Kinetic energy of an object is given by:
E_k= \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Where m is the mass of the object (kg) and v is the velocity of the object (ms-1)

Substituting in:
E_k= \frac{1}{2}*3000*30^2 = 1350000J
Therefore the Kinetic energy of the object is 1.35MJ

The vibrations along a transverse wave move in a direction _________.
GrogVix [38]

Answer: perpendicular to it oscillations.

Explanation: A transverse wave is a wave whose oscillations is perpendicular to the direction of the wave.

By perpendicular, we mean that the wave is oscillating on the vertical axis (y) of a Cartesian plane and the vibration is along the horizontal axis (x) of the plane.

Examples of transverse waves includes wave in a string, water wave and light.

Let us take a wave in a string for example, you tie one end of a string to a fixed point and the other end is free with you holding it.

If you move the rope vertically ( that's up and down) you will notice a kind of wave traveling away from you ( horizontally) to the fixed point.

Since the oscillations is perpendicular to the direction of wave, it is a transverse wave

KonstantinChe [14]
<span>Answer is: A. water cycle.
Under influence of sunlight (energy), water evaporates (liquid phase transform into gas phase). Gas, after contact with bottle, turns into liquid phase again (condensation). That is happening with water in nature also (</span><span>water moves from one reservoir to another).</span>
