Answer:

As it goes down, <u>weight</u> does work on the toboggan and it ends up converting <u>gravitational potential</u> energy to <u>kinetic</u> energy.

1. weight

2. <u>gravitational potential</u> energy to <u>kinetic</u> energy.

Explanation:

As it goes down, <u>weight</u> does work on the toboggan and it ends up converting <u>gravitational potential</u> energy to <u>kinetic</u> energy.

work done by toboggan = weight × distance

W = mg and the distance is down the icy slope

By using law of conservation of energy, energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be conserve from one form to another in a closed system.

Toboggan converts gravitational potential energy (mgh) to kinetic energy(¹/₂mv²)

if you dig a hole through the earth, from one hemisphere to the other, and drop a tennis ball into it, would it get stuck at the
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Depending on which hemisphere it is, like western to eastern, It would most likely get stuck at the center. You would also have to put more things into thought like acceleration, velocity, and speed.

BUT since the question asked "would it pop out the other side?", I'm assuming it's talking about northern to southern hemisphere. so in that case it would pop out the other side since gravity makes things go downwards.

Why are circuit breakers and fuses important?
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

A fuse and circuit breaker both serve to protect an overloaded electrical circuit by interrupting the continuity, or the flow of electricity. ... Fuses tend to be quicker to interrupt the flow of power, but must be replaced after they melt, while circuit breakers can usually simply be reset.

A baseball travels 200 metes in 6 seconds, what is the baseball’s velocity?
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

33.33 m/sec

Explanation:

A baseball travels 200 metes in 6 seconds,

what is the baseball’s velocity?

use the formula: velocity = distance over time

where (d) distance = 200 m

and (t) time = 6 sec.

plugin values into the formula:

v = d / t

  = 200 m / 6 sec

  = 33.33 m/sec.

therefore, the baseball's velocity is 33.33 m/sec
