Answer:

When a seagull picks an oyster up into the sky and then lets it drop on the rocks below to open the shell; where is the oyster's potential energy greatest? Where is its kinetic energy greatest?

Potential energy is greatest at maximum height; kinetic energy is greatest just before the oyster strikes the ground.

Answer:

Potential energy is greatest right before the bird drops it. Kinetic energy is greatest the instant before the oyster hits the ground

Explanation:

Potential energy is the energy stored in an object you store energy in an object by raising it higher in the air.

Kinetic energy is moving energy as the oyster falls it loses the stored energy and it goes into the moving energy which is kinetic.

A Meteorite Strikes On October 9, 1992, a 27-pound meteorite struck a car in Peekskill, NY, leaving a dent 22 cm deep in the tru

Answer:

Acceleration of the meteorite, a=-38409.09\ m/s^2

Explanation:

It is given that,

A Meteorite after striking struck a car, v = 0

Initial speed of the Meteorite, u = 130 m/s

Distance covered by Meteorite, s = 22 cm = 0.22 m

We need to find the magnitude of its deceleration. It can be calculated using the third equation of motion as :

a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}

a=\dfrac{-(130)^2}{2\times 0.22}

a=-38409.09\ m/s^2

So, the deceleration of the Meteorite is -38409.09\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

Displacement vectors of 4 km north, 2 km south, 5 km north, and 5 km south combine to a total displacement of
valentinak56 [21]

south = -(north)

Displacement = (4 km north) + (2 km south) + (5 km north) + (5 km south)

Displacement = (4 km north) - (2 km north) + (5 km north) - (5 km north)

Displacement = (4 - 2 + 5 - 5) km north

<u>Displacement = 2 km north </u>
