Answer:

When you hold the ball in the air, the ball has gravitational potential energy. Realizing it will turn the potential energy into kinetic energy. When the ball touches the ground, the kinetic energy will turn into elastic potential energy. When it bounces back up, it will turn into kinetic energy. When the ball is in that position where the ball was being held, it will have gravitational potential energy and repeat the cycle.

Explanation:

Terms to know:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy of an object that possesses because of its position in a gravitational field.

Elastic potential energy is energy stored as a result of applying a force to deform an elastic object.

Kinetic energy is the energy that objects posess due to motion.

Answer:

When a ball bounces, it initially gains speed or kinetic energy—the energy of motion. When it reaches Earth, it collides head-on with an incredibly massive object that is, from your perspective, at rest. The ball slows down, deforms temporarily and shoots back up.

Which compound is most likely to contain ionic bonds? which compound is most likely to contain ionic bonds? mgf2 ch4 n2o?

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer is: MgF₂, magnesium fluoride.
Magnesium fluoride is salt, ionic compound, because magnesium is metal from 2. group of Periodic table of elements and has low ionisation energy and electronegativity, which means it easily lose valence electons, fluorine is nonmetal with greatest electronegativity, which meand it easily gain electron, so magnesium cation (Mg²⁺) and fluorine anion (F⁻) are formed.

Which properties determines the element that an atom Is?

balandron [24]

Answer:

The answer would be C. Number of protons in the atom.

Explanation:

On the periodic table, you see the element, with a big number at top, and a small number below the element name/abbreviation.

The big number is the amount of protons of the atom, which define each atom. The smaller number represents the atomic mass of the atom.

Which color of light has the greatest energy

ozzi

Answer:

violet

Explanation:

Waves with a short wavelength have the most energy. Red waves have a relatively long wavelength (in the 700 nm range), and violet waves are much shorter - roughly half that. Because violet waves have the shortest wavelength of the visible light spectrum, they carry the most energy (google)
