1 kg ball can have more kinetic energy than a 100 kg ball as increase in velocity is having greater impact on K.E than increase in mass.

<u>Explanation</u>:

We know kinetic energy can be judged or calculated by two parameters only which is mass and velocity. As kinetic energy is directly proportional to the (velocity)^2 and increase in velocity leads to greater effect on translational Kinetic Energy. Here formula of Kinetic Energy suggests that doubling the mass will double its K.E but doubling velocity will quadruple its velocity:

\text { Kinetic Energy }=\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}

Better understood from numerical example as given:

If a man A having weight 50 kg run with speed 5 m/s and another man B having 100 kg weight run with 2.5 m / s. Which man will have more K.E?

This can be solved as follows:

\text { Kinetic Energy of } \mathrm{A}=\frac{1}{2} 50 \times 5^{2}=625 \mathrm{J}

\text { Kinetic Energy bf } \mathrm{B}=\frac{1}{2} 100 \times 2.5^{2}=312.5 \mathrm{J}

It shows that man A will have more K.E.

Hence 1 kg ball can have more K.E than 100 kg ball by doubling velocity.

suter [353]

Answer:

e. Decreased; Increased

Explanation:

The market equilibrium refers to the condition in which the price and the quantity are in equilibrium if the conditions of supply (what the producers offer) and demand (what the consumers buy) don't change.

In this case we have that as the other kids decide to sell more lemonade the amount of lemonade is going to increase (equilibrium quantity) and because of this the price is going to decrease (equilibrium price).

Then when the other kids open theirown lemonade stand, the equilibrium price <u>descreased</u> and the equilibrium quantity <u>increased.</u>

People, especially adults, are inactive because of "passive" modes of transportation.
enot [183]

The drop in physical activity is partly due to inaction during leisure time and sedentary behaviour on the job and at home. Likewise, an increase in the use of "passive" modes of transportation also contributes to insufficient physical activity.

What relationship do you see between a star colour and temperature
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Stars emit colors of many different wavelengths, but the wavelength of light where a star's emission is concentrated is related to the star's temperature - the hotter the star, the more blue it is; the cooler the star, the more red it is
