539000J


PE = mgh


PE = 500kg * 9.8m/s * 110m


PE = 539000J

As an object moves from point A to point B only two forces act onit: one force is nonconservative and does -30 J of work, the ot
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

To solve this problem we will apply the principles of energy conservation. On the one hand we have that the work done by the non-conservative force is equivalent to -30J while the work done by the conservative force is 50J.

This leads to the direct conclusion that the resulting energy is 20J.

The conservative force is linked to the movement caused by the sum of the two energies, therefore there is an increase in kinetic energy. The decrease in the mechanical energy of the system is directly due to the loss given by the non-conservative force, therefore there is a decrease in mechanical energy.

Therefore the correct answer is A. Kintetic energy increases and mechanical energy decreases.

Which equations could be used as is, or rearranged to calculate for frequency of a wave? Check all that apply.
amm1812
-- Equations  #2  and  #6  are both the same equation,
and are both correct.

-- If you divide each side by  'wavelength', you get Equation #4,
which is also correct.

-- If you divide each side by  'frequency', you get Equation #3,
which is also correct. 
With some work, you can rearrange this one and use it to calculate
frequency.

Summary:

-- Equations #2, #3, #4, and #6 are all correct statements,
and can be used to find frequency.

-- Equations #1 and #5 are incorrect statements.

Take a long look at the moon. What evidence do you see that indicates that it is NOT tectonically active Explain.

<span>Without plate tectonics, new mountain belts could not form. Earth would be a Waterworld with occasional shield volcanoes emerging briefly above the waves. If regular catastrophic convective overturn occurred, as on Venus, life would have a precarious foothold indeed.
