We can calculate this with the law of conservation of energy. Here we have a food package with a mass m=40 kg, that is in the height h=500 m and all of it's energy is potential. When it is dropped, it's potential energy gets converted into kinetic energy. So we can say that its kinetic and potential energy are equal, because we are neglecting air resistance:
Ek=Ep, where Ek=(1/2)*m*v² and Ep=m*g*h, where m is the mass of the body, g=9.81 m/s² and h is the height of the body.
(1/2)*m*v²=m*g*h, masses cancel out and we get:
(1/2)*v²=g*h, and we multiply by 2 both sides of the equation
v²=2*g*h, and we take the square root to get v:
v=√(2*g*h)
v=99.04 m/s
So the package is moving with the speed of v= 99.04 m/s when it hits the ground.
Answer:
I think it has something to do with both inertia and gravity?
Energy is the capacity to do work. Energy exists in various forms in the entire universe.
It may be light,sound,electric,magnetic,kinetic,potential,thermal energy etc.
As per the law of conservation of energy, it is neither created not destroyed. It can change from one form to another form.The total energy of the universe is always constant.
The process in which energy will change from one form to another form is called energy conversion.
There is also another terminology for energy conversion called energy transformation.
Energy transference is the process in which energy will be transferred from one body to another body.
Hence the correct answer to this question will be conversion and transformation
The force that opposes motion to moving parts is F<span>riction</span><span>

Your teacher is right. The moon can be seen early in the morning sometimes and late at night. Different phases are only visible on certain days as one day might be full quarter, the next full moon, the next first quarter, etc.
