a. Second ball of mass 3m has the larger kinetic energy than the first ball of mass m

\texttt{ }

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Let's recall the Kinetic Energy formula:

\boxed {E_k = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 }

<em>Ek = kinetic energy ( J )</em>

<em>m = mass of object ( kg )</em>

<em>v = speed of object ( m/s )</em>

\texttt{ }

Acceleration is rate of change of velocity.

\large {\boxed {a = \frac{v - u}{t} } }

\large {\boxed {d = \frac{v + u}{2}~t } }

<em>a = acceleration (m / s²)v = final velocity (m / s)</em>

<em>u = initial velocity (m / s)</em>

<em>t = time taken (s)</em>

<em>d = distance (m)</em>

Let us now tackle the problem!

\texttt{ }

<u>Given:</u>

mass of first ball = m

mass of second ball = 3m

<u>Asked:</u>

ratio of kinetic energy of the balls = Ek₁ : Ek₂ = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

Ek_1 : Ek_2 = \frac{1}{2}m_1 v_1^2 : \frac{1}{2}m_2 v_2^2

Ek_1 : Ek_2 = \frac{1}{2}m_1 (2gh) : \frac{1}{2}m_2 (2gh)

Ek_1 : Ek_2 = m_1gh : m_2gh

Ek_1 : Ek_2 = m_1 : m_2

Ek_1 : Ek_2 = m : 3m

Ek_1 : Ek_2 = 1 : 3

Ek_2 = 3Ek_1

\texttt{ }

<h3>Conclusion:</h3>

Second ball of mass 3m has the larger kinetic energy than the first ball of mass m

The potential energy that the ball has at the top of the tower is its kinetic energy when it hits the ground. The second ball has more potential energy at the top, because you did more work on it to carry it up there. So it has more KE at the bottom. (A)

kiruha [24]

Answer:

C.) The same as one

Explanation:

Because the Ferris wheel has two bars at the side that keep it in place so it doesn't roll away. The Ferris wheel only moves in one place. If the ferris wheel did roll then you would have a greater than one. If it did roll it would be dangerous.

What happends when you slowly pull out the paper while theirs a coin on top​
HACTEHA [7]
The coin would probably slowly slide down whichever end it is closer to, weigh down the end of the paper, and fall off. It kinda depends on how you hold the paper though, because if it is directly in middle, and you hold it on both ends, it will stay on the paper.

Given the following specific heat capacities, which material was have the largest change in temperature if 10 grams of each subs
Ilya [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Comment

You could calculate it out by assuming the same starting temperature for each substance. (You have to assume that the substances do start at the same temperature anyway).

That's like shooting 12 with 2 dice. It can be done, but aiming for a more common number is a better idea.

Same with this question.

You should just develop a rule.  The rule will look like this

The greater the heat capacity the (higher or lower) the change in temperature.

The greater the heat capacity the lower the change in temperature

That's not your question. You want to know which substance will have the greatest temperature change given their heat capacities.

Answer

lead. It has the smallest heat capacity and therefore it's temperature change will be the greatest.
