Kinetic energy:
*the energy of a moving body*
rising water vapor.
the wings of flying hummingbird.
rolling marble.

Potential energy:
*the energy that is stored in a body so that any small change in position or state of the body, will result in this body movement by transforming all this potential energy into kinetic energy*
stone resting.
disconnected battery (the potential energy is what called voltage here)
stretched rubber band.

Hope this helps.

Nathan drops marbles down two ramps that have different lengths. It takes the marbles 10 seconds to reach the bottom of both ram

Sonbull [250]

<h2>Full Question:</h2>

Nathan drops marbles down two ramps that have different lengths. It takes the marbles 10 seconds to reach the bottom of both ramps.Which statement is TRUE?

answer choices

Marble 1 has a faster speed than Marble 2.

Marble 2 has a faster speed than Marble 1.

Both the marbles travel at the same speed.

There is not enough data to compare the speeds of marbles.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Marble 2 has a faster speed than Marble 1.

Option B.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The speed is defined as the distance covered per unit time. Here in the question, 2 balls cover equal distances in same time.

Time taken by the ball = 10 seconds.

Distance covered by 1st ball = 20 cm.

Distance covered by 2nd ball = 3cm.

So speed of the 1st ball = 2cm/sec.

Speed of the 2nd ball = 3 cm /sec.

So,it's very much evident that speed of 2nd Marble is much higher than the speed of the 1st marble.

Why is the escape speed for a spacecraft independent of the spacecraft's mass?

scoray [572]

In order to escape the gravitational pull of our planet, any object must have an escape velocity of 7 km/s or more, anything lower than that will be slowed down by the pull of gravity, and will eventually returned to the surface of our planet. It is independent of mass, any lighter or heavier object must attain the required escaped velocity to reach space.

Explains this: a light source can emit more than one type of light

Radda [10]

Answer:

The electromagnetic spectrum comprise a lot of waves length. Usually, different waves length are called as different lights, and a light source can emit in more than a different wave length, as the sun does, for example. The sun emit the visible light, UV light, infrared, etc.
