As the ball rises it DECREASES kinetic energy which means it INCREASES in gravitational potential energy
Leno4ka [110]3 years ago

Explanation :

The kinetic energy of an object, KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Potential energy of an object, PE=mgh

Where,

m is the mass of an object

v is the velocity of an object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height above the reference level

When Eric throws a basketball straight up in the air, the kinetic energy at maximum height will be zero or we can say that the kinetic energy decreases to zero. The potential energy of basketball is increasing due to increase in height.

a man is twice as old as his son.Five years ago the ratio of their ages was 9:4.Find the sum of their ages​
elena-s [515]

Answer:

75years

Explanation:

Let the Father's age be represented by 2x

Let the Son's age be represented by x

Five years ago;

Man's age will be = 2x - 5

Son's age will be = x - 5

If the ratio of their ages five years ago was 9:4, then;

2x - 5/x-5 = 9/4

4(2x - 5) = 9(x - 5)

8x - 20 = 9x - 45

- Collect like terms

-20 + 45 = 9x - 8x

25 = x

Hence, the son's age = 25 years

If x = 25, the father's age (2x) will be 2 × 25 = 50years

The sum of their ages will be = 25years + 50years = 75years

A man pushes a lawn mower with a force of 200N across 50N meters of his lawn. How much work did the man perform?
krok68 [10]
Work is equal to force times distance or W = Fn x d

In this situation, you would use the following equation:
W= 200N x 50N

W= 10,000N

The man performed 10,000N of work.
