Answer:

The answer is it bounces towards a single spot.

Explanation:

Light bounces off of mirrors, meaning the light is a reflection on a smooth surface. Reflection on smooth surfaces reflect in a single direction.

two objects were lifted by machine one object had a massive 2 kg it was lifted at a speed of 2 m/s the other had a massive 4 kg

rosijanka [135]

Kinetic energy =(1/2) (mass) (speed²)

First object: KE = (1/2) (2 kg) (2m/s)² = 4 joules during the lift.

Second object: KE = (1/2) (4kg) (3 m/s)² = 18 joules during the lift.

The second object has more kinetic energy while it's being lifted
than the first object has while it's being lifted. Once they reach their
final heights and stop, neither object has any kinetic energy.
