With what minimum speed must you toss a 200 g ball straight up to just touch the 14-m-high roof of the gymnasium if you release
Brut [27]
When they say use energy, you want to use

Total energy = potential energy + kinetic energy = mgh + 1/2mv²

I assume you mean 200 g ball,

so, we know the total distance traveled is going to be 13 - 1.3 = 11.7 m

If the ball just makes it to the top ( 13 m ) , then the ball will stop moving and the kinetic energy will be 0,

therefore, the potential energy at the top will be the total energy of the system = mgh

from this, we say that mgh = 1/2mv² solve for v

<span> v = sqrt (2gh) = 15.2 m/s </span>

Write a hypothesis about how the height of the cylinder affects the temperature of the water. Use the "if . . . then . . . becau
AnnyKZ [126]
The statement that can be used to answer this  question is:

"If the cylinder is brought higher then, its temperature when brought down becomes higher because a greater amount of potential energy is converted to thermal energy."

The potential energy is converted to thermal energy when the object is released the velocity becomes higher because of the acceleration due to gravity.
