1. Most PE, because PE is directly proportional to distance (height)
Height: 100 meters
Speed: 0 mph
2. Most KE, because KE is directly proportional to speed
Height: 10 meters
Speed: 40 mph
3. Most TE, average KE
Height: 10 meters
Speed: 40 mph
4. The skater gains thermal energy as she goes down the slope, because the speed of the skater increases, so it increases the total kinetic energy of the particles, and makes them vibrate faster, resulting in a higher temperature.
Explanation:
The sun is to solar energy as uranium is to <u>NUCLEAR</u> energy.
Answer:
Explanation:
mass of clay = m
velocity is u
By use of conservation of momentum
m x u - m x u = (m + m) x v
v = 0
So, they stick together and comes to rest.
The 1kg ball would exert the smallest force.
As force = mass x gravity, this means that the smaller the mass (kg), the lesser the force.
When the mass is lighter (1kg):
Force = mass x gravity
Force = 1 x 9.8
Force = 9.8N
Compared to when the mass is heavier (10kg)
Force = mass x gravity
Force = 10 x 9.8
Force = 98N
Where this proves that the lighter the mass, the smaller the force exerted.
