<span>when it returns to its original level after encountering air resistance, its kinetic energy is
decreased.
In fact, part of the energy has been dissipated due to the air resistance.
The mechanical energy of the ball as it starts the motion is:
</span>

<span>where K is the kinetic energy, and where there is no potential energy since we use the initial height of the ball as reference level.
If there is no air resistance, this total energy is conserved, therefore when the ball returns to its original height, the kinetic energy will still be 100 J. However, because of the presence of the air resistance, the total mechanical energy is not conserved, and part of the total energy of the ball has been dissipated through the air. Therefore, when the ball returns to its original level, the kinetic energy will be less than 100 J.</span>

We are given the gravitational potential energy and the height of the ball and is asked in the problem to determine the mass of the ball. the formula to be followed is PE = mgh where g is the gravitational acceleration equal to 9.81 m/s^2. substituting, 58.8 J = m*9.8 m/s^2 * 30 m; m = 0.2 kg.
The reason why icebergs float in the ocean has to do with temperature. Icebergs are colder than the ocean water and therefore the cold water is less dense than the warm water and this causes the Iceberg to float.
