The kinetic energy of an object is the energy of the object as it moves. It has more kinetic energy the faster it moves. Because a falling object is increasing in speed, it would also increase in kinetic energy. Hope this helps! :)

IT INCREASES AS IT STARTED TO FALL, 
The kinetic energy = K.E =  1/2 * m *V^2  
FROM THAT EQUATION,  IT SAYS THAT THE K.E INCREASES AS THE VELOCITY INCREASE , SINCE IT FALLS SO IT WILL ACCELERATES, THAT MEANS THE VELOLCITY INCREASES, SO THE K.E INCREASE

When a car's velocity is positive and its acceleration is negative, what is happening to the car's motion?
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Assuming rightward is positive, the velocity is positive whenever the car is moving to the right, and the velocity is negative whenever the car is moving to the left. The acceleration points in the same direction as the velocity if the car is speeding up, and in the opposite direction if the car is slowing down.

If a baseball pitch leaves the pitcher's hand horizontally at a velocity of 150 km/h by what percent will the pull of gravity ch
Slav-nsk [51]
<span>0.52% First, let's convert that speed into m/s. 150 km/h * 1000 m/km / 3600 s/h = 41.667 m/s Now let's see how much time gravity has to work on the ball. Divide the distance by the speed. 18 m / 41.667 m/s = 0.431996544 s Now multiply that time by the gravitational acceleration to see what the vertical component to the ball's speed that gravity adds. 0.431996544 s * 9.8 m/s^2 = 4.233566131 m/s Use the pythagorean theorem to get the new velocity of the ball. sqrt(41.667^2 + 4.234^2) = 41.882 m/s Finally, let's see what the difference is (41.882 - 41.667)/41.667 = 0.005159959 = 0.5159959% Rounding to 2 figures, gives 0.52%</span>

During the spin cycle of your clothes washer, the tub rotates at a steady angular velocity of 33.5 rad/s. Find the angular displ
zavuch27 [327]

Answer: angular displacement in rad = 3038.45 rad

angular displacement in rev = 483.589 rev

Explanation: mathematically

Angular velocity = angular displacement / time taken.

Angular velocity = 33.5 rad/s, time taken = 90.7s

33.5 = angular displacement /90.7

Angular displacement = 33.5 * 90.7 = 3038.45 rad

But 1 rev =2π

Hence 3038.45 rad to rev is

3038.45/2π = 483.599 rev
