What happens to an object's gravitational potential energy as it falls from some height?​

Physics
1 answer:
saveliy_v [14]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Decreases

Explanation:

As an object falls from some height, the gravitational potential energy of the object decreases.

Potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body.

The potential energy is mathematically expressed as:

   Potential energy  = mass x acceleration due to gravity x height

So, potential energy is directly proportional to mass and height.

The higher the mass and height, the more the potential energy.

Gwar [14]
Newtons 1st law of motion states that the object will continue to move at its present speed and direction until an outside force acts upon it.
 
So unless the objects inside the car are restrained, they will continue moving at whatever speed the car is traveling at, even if the car is stopped by a crash.

The value of the surface area of the cylinder is equal to the value of the volume of the cylinder. Find the value of x.
max2010maxim [7]

The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula v=pi r^2h, where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is the height.

<h3>What Does a Cylinder's Surface Area Look Like?</h3>

The overall area or region that the surface of a cylinder covers is referred to as its surface area. A cylinder's total surface area includes both the area of the curved surface and the area of the two flat surfaces because there are two flat surfaces and one curved surface. A cylinder's surface area is measured in square units like m2, in2, cm2, yd2, etc.

<h3>What is the cylinder's total surface area?</h3>

The sum of the curved surface areas makes up the cylinder's overall surface area.
