A 1.5 kg bird is gliding at a height of 12 m with a speed of 3.8m/s. What is the kinetic energy of the bird, to the nearest joul
Georgia [21]

A 1.5 kg bird is gliding at a height of 12 m with a speed of 3.8m/s. The kinetic energy of the bird is 10.83 joules.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy can be defined as,The kinetic energy (KE) of an object is the energy that the object possesses due to its motion.

The Kinetic energy can be calculated by using formula,

Kinetic Energy: KE = 1/2 (mv 2)

Where, m = Mass, v = Velocity.

Here in this case the bird mass is 1.5kg and is gliding with velocity 3.8m/s

hence, KE= 1/2*(1.5)×(3.8)^2

                   =0.5×1.5×3.8×3.8

                   =10.83Joules

A roller coaster is stationary at the top of a ramp.
Serjik [45]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The roller coaster is stationary so the kinetic energy would be zero, but it is at the top of ramp so the potential energy would be high as its gravitational  so it would have to be A

A negative test charge will accelerate toward regions of ________ electric potential and ________ electric potential energy.
dalvyx [7]

Answer: higher and lower

Explanation:

 charge in an electric field will experience a force in the direction of decreasing potential energy. Since the electric potential energy of a negative charge is equal to the charge times the electric potential the direction of decreasing electric potential energy is the direction of increasing electric potential.
