You don't need both. GPE is the gravitational potential energy caused by the fact that an object is not touching the ground of the earth. KE is caused by an object moving. This problem says that the bowling ball "sits" meaning that you only need the GPE because it's not moving and it is not touching the surface. You would use the GPE equation to find how much Potential energy an object has. If you want its velocity,  you would set the answer to the GPE equation equal to the KE equation to find its velocity.

kramer

Explanation:

<em>The height of the pendulum is measured from the lowest point it reaches (point 3). </em>

At 1, the kinetic energy of the pendulum is zero (because it is not moving), and it has maximum potential energy.

At 2, the pendulum has both kinetic and potential energy, and how much of each it has depends on its height—smaller the height greater the kinetic energy and lower the potential energy.

At 3, the height is zero; therefore, the pendulum has no potential energy, and has maximum kinetic energy.

At 4, the pendulum again gains potential energy as it climbs back up,  Again how much of each forms of energy it has depends on its height.

At 5, the maximum height is reached again; therefore, the pendulum has maximum potential energy and no kinetic energy.

Hope this helps :)

7. Which best describes the energy change th pushes a large rock down a hill?
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Gravitational Energy is the energy of position or place. A rock resting at the top of a hill contains gravitational Potential energy. Hydropower, such as water in a reservoir behind a dam, is an example of gravitational potential energy.

A shot-putter accelerates a 7.2 kg shot from rest to 17 m/s . what work did the shot-putter do on the ball?
garri49 [273]
<span>1.0x10^3 Joules The kinetic energy a body has is expressed as the equation E = 0.5 M V^2 where E = Energy M = Mass V = Velocity Since the shot was at rest, the initial energy is 0. Let's calculate the energy that the shot has while in motion E = 0.5 * 7.2 kg * (17 m/s)^2 E = 3.6 kg * 289 m^2/s^2 E = 1040.4 kg*m^2/s^2 E = 1040.4 J So the work performed on the shot was 1040.4 Joules. Rounding the result to 2 significant figures gives 1.0x10^3 Joules</span>

Solar winds have an influence all the way to about 160 AU from the Sun. About how many kilometers is that?
Mumz [18]

Answer: A. 24,000,000,000 km

Explanation: An Astronomical Unit  commonly abbreviated as AU is the average distance between Earth and the Sun and is about 150 million kilometers.

Astronomical unit is mainly used to measure distances within our solar system.

1 AU is equal to  150\times 10^6 km

Thus 160 AU  is equal to \frac{150\times 10^6}{1}\times 160=24000\times 10^6km=24000000000km
