Hey! If this is on big ideas get a app called “Slader” It has answers to all math problems just like up the book you use > save it > type in the section you are doing > and look for the problems you are doing.
A baseball traveling at 100 mph has more kinetic energy than a baseball traveling at 50 mph because the kinetic energy = 1/2 x mass x velocity. Since the baseballs should have the same mass, the velocity is what will determine which ball has more kinetic energy. Since the 100 mph baseball has a higher velocity than the 50 mph baseball, it has more kinetic energy.
Answer:
3.95 m
Explanation:
m = 1 kg, h = 100 m, k = 125 N/m
Let the spring is compressed by y.
Use the conservation of energy
potential energy of the mass is equal to the energy stored in the spring
m x g x h = 1/2 x ky^2
1 x 9.8 x 100 = 0.5 x 125 x y^2
y^2 = 15.68
y = 3.95 m
