Speed of any freely falling object is always same. Provided, both are left to fall from the same height. If you perform this experiment in a perfect vacuum or near vacuum laboratory, both of them will reach ground with same velocity this is because there is no resistance to their motion. This is always true no matter where you go and perform this experiment.
It can be easily proved from conservation of mechanical energy. Why conserving energy? because there are no forces acting on the freely falling objects other than conservative force(mg).
Answer: The silver pellet will release heat
Explanation:
Based on the case scenario, the silver pellet has a higher temperature that the system of water and copper cup and is thereby added to the system. Because of the higher kinetic energy of the molecules of silver in the silver pellet, some of energy will be released to the water and copper cup system because the system will aim to achieve thermal equilibrium.
Yeah sure someone else in answering rn
I'm trying to think of something that will give you the biggest bang for your buck, meaning what would give you the most number of energy transformations in their use.
Wind energy uses those great big windmills that transform wind into electrical energy. The wind is caused by the sun (which has nuclear energy, light energy and the earth's rotation which is not related to the sun but is mechanical energy). To start with you use mechanical energy. That energy drives a generator that stores it's energy in a battery. You have changed electrical energy into chemical energy. The batteries, on a calm day take over and provide electrical energy that must be transported to the consumers using it. Proponents of wind energy say that it is pollution free. It's not exactly true. The batteries used have to be manufactured (not a clean industry) and when they wear out, they pollute the environment if they cannot be recharged with new battery plates and acid (chemical).
Added to which wind energy is very noisy (sound energy) which has been linked to serious diseases.
