The kinetic energy of the small ball before the collision is
KE = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²
= (1/2) (2 kg) (1.5 m/s)
= (1 kg) (2.25 m²/s²)
= 2.25 joules.
Now is a good time to review the Law of Conservation of Energy:
Energy is never created or destroyed.
If it seems that some energy disappeared,
it actually had to go somewhere.
And if it seems like some energy magically appeared,
it actually had to come from somewhere.
The small ball has 2.25 joules of kinetic energy before the collision.
If the small ball doesn't have a jet engine on it or a hamster inside,
and does not stop briefly to eat spinach, then there won't be any
more kinetic energy than that after the collision. The large ball
and the small ball will just have to share the same 2.25 joules.
Answer: D.) 39,200 J
Via the equation of potential energy PE = mgh where m is mass, g is the average gravity on earth and h is the height. In this case m = 400 kg, g = 9.8, h = 10 m thus:
P.E.= 39,200 Joules
The answer is wind forces and Earth’s rotation
Answer:
Weight at the surface of Jupiter's moon Io is 8.13 N .
Explanation:
Given :
Acceleration due to gravity at the surface of Jupiter's moon is 
.
Weight of watermelon in earth , 
.
Acceleration due to gravity at the surface of earth is 
.
We know , weight is given by :
Therefore , mass at the surface of Jupiter's moon Io is :
Hence , this is the required solution .
Answer:
Reflection involves a change in direction of waves when they bounce off a barrier. Refraction of waves involves a change in the direction of waves as they pass from one medium to another.
