The change in the kinetic energy refers to the work done in displacing a body, thus, the change in the kinetic energy of an object refers to the work done on the object.
The correct formula to use is:
W = Initial kinetic energy - Final kinetic energy;
Where, W = change in kinetic energy
Final kinetic energy and initial kinetic energy = 1/2 MV^2
Initial velocity = 15 m/s
Final velocity = 13.5 m/s
Initial mass = 0.650 kg
Final mass = 0.950 kg
W = 1/2 [0.650* (15 *15)] - 1/2 [0.950 * (13.5 * 13.5)]
W = 146.25 - 173.13 = 26.88
Therefore, the change in kinetic energy is 26.88 J.
The negative sign has to be ignored, because change in kinetic energy can not be negative.

We can solve the problem by using the first law of thermodynamics:
where
is the variation of internal energy of the system
Q is the heat added to the system
W is the work done by the system
In this problem, the variation of internal energy of the system is
While the heat added to the system is
therefore, the work done by the system is
The 120 decibel sound has more amplitude than the 100 decibel sound.
In Physics, the relation between amplitude and intensity is that the intensity of the wave is directly proportional to the square of its amplitude.
The answer is the FIRST OPTION
Work occurs when a force is applied to an object and the object moves in the direction of the force applied <span />
