Answer:

<u><em>The answer is</em></u>: <u>C. It becomes another form, mainly kinetic energy.</u>

<u />

Explanation:

Potential energy <em>is that which has a body due to the height at which it is. </em>

<em>For example, a pot placed in a window at a certain height</em> has potential energy.

<em>When a body falls from a certain height, and if we despise friction with the air, what happens is</em><u><em> </em></u><u>that its potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy</u>.

<u><em>The answer is</em></u>: <u>C. It becomes another form, mainly kinetic energy.</u>

Answer:

C. It is converted into another form, mainly kinetic energy

Explanation:

Potential energy is energy available to be used in an object that isn't currently moving. When an object begins moving, potential energy becomes kinetic energy.

A Car with drives into a solid object with 70 km/h, from which height would it fall if it was in free fall?​
Ilya [14]

Answer:

18.9 m.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 70 km/h

Height (h) =?

Next, we shall convert 70 km/h to m/s. This can be obtained as follow:

3.6 km/h = 1 m/s

Therefore,

70 km/h = 70 km/h × 1 m/s / 3.6 km/h

70 km/h = 19.44 m/s

Finally, we shall determine the height. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 19.44 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Height (h) =?

v² = u² + 2gh

19.44² = 0² + (2 × 10 × h)

377.9136 = 0 + 20h

377.9136 = 20h

Divide both side by 20

h = 377.9136 / 20

h = 18.9 m

Thus, the car will fall from a height of 18.9 m

Which number is not rounded correctly?
DedPeter [7]
The answer would be <span>B. 210.8 rounded to 210

When rounding, if the digit you are rounding is equal to or larger than 5, you round the number up. For example: 15 rounded up to 20. 99 rounded up to 100.

210.8 would be rounded up to 211 
because the 8 is greater than five, so you have to round it up.</span>

My homework says-
Amanda [17]
And I gather that instead of trying it on your own, you want me to do it for you.


The force of gravity between two objects always involves the product of
both of their masses.

"Weight" is the force of gravity between a planet and an object on its surface,
so it depends on both masses.

When a rock, a space probe, or an astronaut goes to a different planet, its/his
mass doesn't change, but the mass of the body they're standing on is different. 
So the weight of the rock or the astronaut is different from what it is on Earth.
