Answer:

At the maximum height

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its position in the gravitational field.

Mathematically, it is given by:

PE=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height of the object relative to the ground

From the formula, we see that the potential energy is directly proportional to the height of the object above the ground: therefore, the larger the value of h, the larger the potential energy of the object.

Therefore, the object has the maximum potential energy when it is at the highest position above the ground.

pshichka [43]

Answer:

d = 69 .57 meter

Explanation:

First case

Speed of car ( v )  = 20.5 mi/h  = 9.164  M/S

distance ( d ) = 11.6 meter                                       ( m = mass of the car )

Work done = 0.5 m v²  = 0.5 * 9.164² * m J  = 41.99 m J

Force = ( workdone /distance ) = ( 41.99 m / 11.6 )   =  3.619 m N

Second case

v = 50.2 mi/h = 22.44135 m/s

d = ?

Work done = 0.5 * 22.44² * m J = 251.7768 * m J

Since the braking force remains the same .

3.619 m = ( 251.7768 m / d )

d = 69 .57 meter

Explain the molecular concept of thermal energy.
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The temperature of an object increases when the molecules that make up that object move faster. Thermal energy is energy possessed by an object or system due to the movement of particles within the object or the system.

Which illustrates the law of conservation of matter? A. producers because they create new matter B. decomposers because they des
Klio2033 [76]

D. compost bins because they recycle matter into a new form

Explanation:

  • The law of conservation of matter is about the creation and how matter is being transferred. According to the law, the matter cannot be destroyed. The matter should always be transferred from one form to another in the universe. There is never destruction of matter happens. There is also one more point to it, as it cannot be destroyed it also cannot be created.
  • Here in the options, option A tells us the creation which is not possible, option B says about the destruction of matter which is not true according to the law, C is about storing the matter which will not happen because its get transferred and D is the correct option because it talks about the recycle/ transfer of matter.
