Answer:        

By the law of conservation of mechanical energy, in the absence of any drag, when the rock falls towards the ground, the potential energy gets converted to kinetic energy. Once the rock hits the ground, it does not move. This is because, the energy is dissipated as sound or heat (to the environment). The total energy remains conserved. Only the form of energy changes.

Answer:

a

The speed is   s =  5.857 m/s

b

The distance is  D = 22.4  \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The speed of the banana is  v =  16 \ m/s

   The distance from my  location is  d =  8.2  \ m  

     The time taken is  t = 1.4 \ s

The speed of the ice cream is

          s =  \frac{d}{t}

substituting values

        s =  \frac{8.4}{1.4}

        s =  5.857 m/s

The distance of separation between i and Valdimir is the same as the distance covered by the banana

   So  

          D =  v * t

substituting values

        D = 16 *  1.4

        D = 22.4  \  m

Which material is used to reduce friction ?
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:MOST COMMON METHOD IS USING A LUBRICANT -

A lubricant is a substance, usually organic, introduced to reduce friction between surfaces in ... medical examination. It is mainly used to reduce friction and to contribute to a better and efficient functioning of a mechanism. ... For lubricant base oil use, the vegetable derived materials are preferred

OTHER METHODS-

There are a number of ways to reduce friction:

Make the surfaces smoother. ...

Lubrication is another way to make a surface smoother.

Make the object more streamlined.

Reduce the forces acting on the surfaces.

Reduce the contact between the surfaces.

What happens to kinetic energy when you increase the mass?
Rus_ich [418]

Increasing mass increases kinetic energy. This can be seen in the equation KE = 1/2 (m) (v)^2
