Answer: there is zero kinetic energy but there is Gravitational Potential Energy (GPE) and GPE = 8826.3 J
Explanation:
They traveling at -0.37/ms^
A. Impulse is simply the product of Force and time.
Therefore,
I = F * t --->
1
where I is impulse, F is force, t is time
However another formula for solving impulse is:
I = m vf – m vi --->
2
where m is mass, vf is final velocity and vi is initial
velocity
Therefore using equation 2 to solve for impulse I:
I = 2000kg (0) – 2000kg (77 m/s)
I = -154,000 kg m/s
B. By conservation of momentum, we also know that Impulse
is conserved. That means that increasing the time by a factor of 3 would still
result in an impuse of -154,000 kg m/s. So,
I = F’ * (3 t) = -154,000 kg m/s
Since t is multiplied by 3, therefore this only means
that Force is decreased by a factor of 3 to keep the impulse constant,
therefore:
(F/3) (3t) = -154,000 kg m/s
Summary of Answers:
A. I = -154,000 kg m/s
B. Force is decreased by factor of 3
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
a) The change in energy is the difference between the final energy and the initial energy.
ΔE (energy change) = Ef (final energy) - Ei (initial energy)

The negative sign shows that energy is lost to the environment. Hence 0.334 J is lost to the environment.
b) According to the law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be created or destroyed but transformed from one form to another.
The oscillating object loses energy due to wind resistance, friction between the spring and the object. Given that the air is frictionless, hence the energy loss is due to friction which is converted to heat.
