Answer:

Height.

Explanation:

Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

$P.E = mgh$

Where,

P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

Hence, the property of the object (having a mass of 5 kilograms) which must differ to have different gravitational potential energies is the height from which they are falling from.

The object having the higher height would have a greater gravitational potential energy than the lower object.

Luden [163]

The first thing you should know for this case is the definition of distance.
d = v * t
Where,
v = speed
t = time
We have then:
d = v * t
d = 9 * 12 = 108 m
The kinetic energy is:
K = ½mv²
Where,
m: mass
v: speed
K = ½ * 1500 * (18) ² = 2.43 * 10 ^ 5 J
The work due to friction is
w = F * d
Where,
F = Force
d = distance:
w = 400 * 108 = 4.32 * 10 ^ 4
The power will be:
P = (K + work) / t
Where,
t: time
P = 2.86 * 10 ^ 5/12 = 23.9 kW
answer:
the average power developed by the engine is 23.9 kW

I need help on ideas for a science project.. (highschool ideas)

Nana76 [90]

A research question that would complete the third question you need that are related to the first 2 questions which are:

“what type of masks help prevent fog on glasses when breathing?”
“does a mask’s material affect the level of fog on glasses as an effect of breathing?”

Would be: "Are there any available masks that could prevent fog on glasses that could be improved upon"?

This new research question would help you find out if there is an already existing mask that could be made better.

<h3>What is a Research Question?</h3>

This refers to "a question that a research project sets out to answer". and seeks to give answers to particular phenomena.

Hence, we can see that the new research question Would be: "Are there any available masks that could prevent fog on glasses that could be improved upon"?

This new research question would help you find out if there is an already existing mask that could be made better.
