When you throw a ball, the work you do to accelerate it equals the kinetic energy the ball gains. if you do twice as much work w
nata0808 [166]
It doesn't because when u threw it the first time, u notice that the ball eventually came to a stop because of the force that was acting upon it. Although when u throw it harder it will start out faster than the first time u threw it because u put more kinetic energy onto the ball. But the same thing happens with this ball that happened to the second ball, they both have a type of force acting upon them.

A 3.06kg stone is dropped from a height of 10.0m and strikes the ground with a velocity of 7.00m/s. What average force of air fr
xxTIMURxx [149]
<span>22.5 newtons. First, let's determine how much energy the stone had at the moment of impact. Kinetic energy is expressed as: E = 0.5mv^2 where E = Energy m = mass v = velocity Substituting known values and solving gives: E = 0.5 3.06 kg (7 m/s)^2 E = 1.53 kg 49 m^2/s^2 E = 74.97 kg*m^2/s^2 Now ignoring air resistance, how much energy should the rock have had? We have a 3.06 kg moving over a distance of 10.0 m under a force of 9.8 m/s^2. So 3.06 kg * 10.0 m * 9.8 m/s^2 = 299.88 kg*m^2/s^2 So without air friction, we would have had 299.88 Joules of energy, but due to air friction we only have 74.97 Joules. The loss of energy is 299.88 J - 74.97 J = 224.91 J So we can claim that 224.91 Joules of work was performed over a distance of 10 meters. So let's do the division. 224.91 J / 10 m = 224.91 kg*m^2/s^2 / 10 m = 22.491 kg*m/s^2 = 22.491 N Rounding to 3 significant figures gives an average force of 22.5 newtons.</span>

3. Is the relationship between the gravitational force and the mass directly proportional or
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Directly Proportional

Explanation:

Gravitational force can be calculated with the equation F = g(m1 * m2)/ r^2

So if we increase mass, force will also increase because mass is in the numerator.

What shape is the orbit of the planets
Sergio [31]
The shapes of the planetary orbits are all slightly slightly slightly eccentric
ellipses.  If you saw a drawing of the orbit of any planet on paper, you
couldn't tell the difference from a perfect circle.

Most COMETs, on the other hand, have very squashed, greatly elongated
orbits. When they're out, they go way way out, and when they're in, they
can be closer to the Sun than Mercury is.
