Answer:

C. C

Explanation:

The ball will have its greatest kinetic energy just before it touches the ground which is at point C.

Kinetic energy of a body is the energy due to the motion of the body. As a body moves and its speed increases as a result of acceleration, then the kinetic energy will increase more.

As the body starts from rest, at point A, through B and C, the velocity increases drastically due the pull of the earth.

So, point C will show the greatest velocity and hence the most kinetic energy by the body.

A 60 kg pupil runs for 600m in 1 minute uniformly calculate kinetic energy​
AURORKA [14]

velocity = traveled distance ÷ time of the traveled distance is seconds

velocity = 600 ÷ 60

velocity = 10 m/s

_________________________________

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 × mass × ( velocity )^2

KE = 1/2 × 60 × ( 10 )^2

KE = 30 × 100

KE = 3000 j

Which of the following is a characteristic of a mixture
BARSIC [14]
I believe you forgot to add the choices. I will tell you some of the characteristics of mixtures and I hope you find one of them in the choices you have.

A mixture is a physical combination between two or more elements. No chemical reaction is involved in the formation of mixtures.
The components of the mixture can be separated using physical methods such as filtration, boiling and condensation.
Examples of mixtures include mixture of sugar and water or mixture of salt and sugar.

What is the total number of pounds of carbon dioxide that 2 trees remove from the air each<br> year?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

On average, one acre of new forest can sequester about 2.5 tons of carbon annually. Young trees absorb CO2 at a rate of 13 pounds per tree each year. Trees reach their most productive stage of carbon storage at about 10 years at which point they are estimated to absorb 48 pounds of CO2 per year.
