The answer is c, because ball is falling so its gravitationl potential energy decreases, but it kinetic energy increases. Energy is always conserved.

The greatest speed recorded by a baseball thrown by a pitcher was 162.3 km / h, obtained by Nolan Ryan in 1974. If the ball leav
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

0.96 m

Explanation:

First, convert km/h to m/s.

162.3 km/h × (1000 m/km) × (1 hr / 3600 s) = 45.08 m/s

Now find the time it takes to move 20 m horizontally.

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

20 m = (45.08 m/s) t + ½ (0 m/s²) t²

t = 0.4436 s

Finally, find how far the ball falls in that time.

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) (0.4436 s) + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) (0.4436 s)²

Δy = -0.96 m

The ball will have fallen 0.96 meters.

If a 50 kg student is standing on the edge of a cliff. Find the student’s gravitational potential energy if the cliff is 40 m hi
Oduvanchick [21]

you can find it using the equation: potential energy=mass*gravitational acceleration*height.


energy=50kg*9.8N/kg*40m=19600Nm=19600J or 19.6kJ


Sometimes they use 10 instead of 9.8 for the g constant.
