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

An upright object 2.80 cm tall is placed 16.0 cm away from the vertex of a concave mirror with a center of curvature of 24.0 cm.
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

f = 12 cm

Explanation:

<u>Center of Curvature</u>:

The center of that hollow sphere, whose part is the spherical mirror, is known as the ‘Center of Curvature’ of  mirror.

<u>The Radius of Curvature</u>:

The radius of that hollow sphere, whose part is the spherical mirror, is known as the ‘Radius of Curvature’ of  mirror. It is the distance from pole to the center of curvature.

<u>Focal Length</u>:

The distance between principal focus and pole is called ‘Focal Length’. It is denoted by ‘F’.

The focal length of the spherical (concave) mirror is approximately equal to half of the radius of curvature:

f = \frac{R}{2}

where,

f = focal length = ?

R = Radius of curvature = 24 cm

Therefore,

f = \frac{24\ cm}{2}

<u>f = 12 cm</u>

A company is creating a new mosquito repellent, and needs to figure out how much is needed to stop mosquito bites. They find vol
Jlenok [28]

The independent variable is the different amount of repellent each person is given. This is because it does not depend on any variable. The dependent variable is what they are measuring, which would be the number of bites on each volunteer.
I hope this helps! :)

What is one watt ? Write the relation of watt with kilowatt , megawatt , and horsepower .​
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

The watt (the power) is equal to the relationship between the work and the time in which that work is performed.

P = W/t

where:

W = work [J] (units of Joules)

t = time [s].

Now 1000 [W] are equal to 1 [kW]

And 1000000 [W] are equal to 1 [MW]

The horsepower is the unit of power in the imperial system of units.

And 745.7 [W] are equal to 1 [Hp]

A 600 kg car is at test and then accelerated to 5m/s , what is its original kinetic energy
ycow [4]

Answer:

0 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is defined as:

KE = 1/2 m v²

where m is mass and v is velocity.

The car starts at rest, so it has zero velocity.  Therefore, its initial kinetic energy is 0 J.
