<span>The correct option is C. Energy cannot be created or destroyed. This statement is known as law of conservation of energy, and it implies that whenever a certain form of energy does change, the loss of this form of energy must have converted into an another type of energy. A typical example is an object falling to the ground: initially, the object has gravitational potential energy. As the object falls down, it loses potential energy (since its altitude from the grounf decreases), but it acquires kinetic energy (because its velocity increases). In this example, potential energy has converted into kinetic energy, but the total energy of the object has remained constant.</span>
Potential energy is high and kinetic is equal i believe.
<span>Final Velocity = Vf = 0 m/s --------------> (Vf = 0 because ball's speed at its max height is 0)
Initial Velocity = Vi = ?
Total time (upward & downward) = 8.0 seconds
* Time upward = 4 seconds & ................( As time for ball upward & downward is equal )
* Time downward = 4 seconds..
Gravitational Acceleration = g = -9.8 m/s²
Use Equation;
Vf = Vi - gt
0 = Vi - 9.8 * 4
0 = Vi - 39.2
39.2 = Vi
=> Vi = Initial Velocity = 39.2 m/s</span>
Displacement = (distance between start and end points) in the direction of (direction from start to end point). Distance = (11.3-3.38)= 7.92 m. Direction = the negative 'x' direction.
