False. there's less gravitational force in space than on earth
Work is force multiplied by the distance the force moves the object
The railroad tracks will expand because the heat waves make them bigger
Answer:
The mechanical energy is converted to potential energy while the kinetic energy is zero
Explanation:
mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy. It is the energy associated with the motion and position of an object. The total mechanical energy is the sum of these two forms of energy.
The Law of Conservation of Energy: Energy cannot be created or destroyed, but is merely changed from one form into another. This means that potential energy can become kinetic energy, or vice versa, but energy cannot “disappear”.
The mechanical energy is converted to potential energy while the kinetic energy is zero
Answer: A Bowling Ball
Explanation:
A body possess kinetic energy due to virtue of its motion. It depends on the mass of the body and the speed with which it is travelling.
K.E = 0.5 mv²
K.E. ∝ m
It is given that the marble, bowling ball, basketball and baseball all are rolling with the same speed. This means that the greatest energy would be possessed by the body having greatest mass.
On an average the mass of a marble is about 50 g, mass of a bowling ball is 750 g, mass of baseball is 150 g and mass of basketball is 600 g. Since the mass of a Bowling ball is the greatest, it would possess the greatest kinetic energy.
