Answer:
437 J
Explanation:
Parameters given:
Weight of child, W = 230 N
Height of swing, h = 1.9 m
Gravitational Potential Energy is given as:
P. E. = m*g*h = W*h
m = mass
h = height above the ground
W = weight
P. E. = 230 * 1.9
P. E. = 437 J
The answer you are looking for is A
The formula to find the kinetic energy is:
Ek= 1/2 × m × v^2
1. Ek= 1/2×15×3^2
= 67.5 J
2.Ek= 1/2×8×4^2
=64 J
3.Ek= 1/2×12×5^2
= 150 J
4.Ek= 1/2×10×6^2
= 180 J
So the fourth dog has the most kinetic energy.
Answer:
