A 25-kg child sits at the top of a 4-meter slide. After sliding down, the child is traveling at 5 m/s. How much PE does he start

with? How much KE does he end with? How much energy is lost to friction?

Daniddmelo says it right there, don't know why he got reported.

The potential energy (PE) is mass x height x gravity. So it would be 25 kg x 4  m x 9.8 = 980 joules. The child starts out with 980 joules of potential energy. The kinetic energy (KE) is (1/2) x mass x velocity squared. KE = (1/2) x 25 kg x 5 m/s2 = 312.5 joules. So he ends with 312.5 joules of kinetic energy. The Energy lost to friction =  PE - KE. 980- 312.5 = 667.5 joules of energy lost to friction.

Please don't just copy and paste, and thank you Dan cause you practically did it I just... elaborated more? I dunno.

In a real machine, the work output is always less than the work input.<br> a. True<br> b. False
Artist 52 [7]
<span>In a real machine, the work output is always less than the work input is true. The answer is letter A. it follows the law of entropy where no energy can be converted completely into work. Under this law, Carnot’s theorem states that Carnot’s engine can perform 100% of work. However, no such engine has ever succeeded the conversion of work into 100%. The greatest efficiency so far is at 80%.  Because there will always be factors that could affect the conversion of work. </span>

Most reactive non-metals in order?
kompoz [17]
Nonmetals often share or gain electrons. The nonmetals in the periodic table increases as you move to the right and decreases as you go down. This is because, the smaller the atom, the reactive it gets due to less electron attached to the orbits of the atom. The reactivity of nonmetals is arranged in decreasing order.   <span>

The force of gravity on Jupiter is much stronger than the force of gravity on earth what is the answer?
Pachacha [2.7K]

This would be true. On Jupiter you would weigh 234 pounds if you were 100 pounds on Earth.
