It's B.  Gravity is the force causing the car to accelerate.  As it goes down the hill the gravitational potential energy it had at the top of the hill is converted into kinetic energy.  That is, the car gains kinetic energy as a result of its increased speed, the kinetic energy is not causing the car to accelerate.  It is only a function of its current speed.

A block with mass 0.470 kg sits at rest on a light but not long vertical spring that has spring constant 85.0 N/m and one end on
a_sh-v [17]

Answer: elastic potential energy = 20.27 J

Explanation:

Given that the

Mass M = 0.470 kg

Height h = 4.40 m

Spring constant K = 85 N/m

The maximum elastic potential will be equal to the maximum kinetic energy experienced by the block.

But according to conservative of energy, the maximum kinetic energy is equal to the maximum potential energy experienced by the block of mass M.

That is

K .E = P.E = mgh

Where g = 9.8m/s^2

Substitutes all the parameters into the formula

K.E = 0.470 × 9.8 × 4.4

K.E = 20.27 J

Where K.E = maximum elastic potential energy stored in the spring during the motion of the blocks after the collision which is 20.27J.

A shotputter throws the shot with an initial speed of 15.6 m/s at a 30.0 degree angle to the horizontal. Calculate the horizonta
vfiekz [6]
To calculate the horizontal distance traveled by the shot if it leaves the athlete's hand at a height of 2.20 above the ground we can get the root of the quad equation for time are t=-0.24 or t =1.84 taking the t = 1.84, so the equation will be:
x = 15.6cos(30) * 1.86, x = 24.79m
