It is possible because the rubber ball has mechanical energy which is equal to potential energy.

<h3>What is mechanical energy?</h3>

Mechanical energy of an object is the total energy possessed by the object, including the potential energy and the kinetic energy.

M.A = K.E + P.E

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion.

<h3>What is potential energy?</h3>

Potential energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its position.

When kinetic energy (K.E) = 0

M.A = P.E

Thus, it is possible because the rubber ball has mechanical energy which is equal to potential energy.

What part of the electromagnetic spectrum can be seen by humans?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

Visible light

Explanation:

Electromagnetic spectrum is the classification of the electromagnetic waves based on their frequency and wavelength. In order from the shortest to the longest wavelength, we have

Gamma rays

X-rays

Ultraviolet

Visible light

Infrared radiation

Microwaves

Radio waves

All these waves are invisible to human eye, except for the visible light part. Visible light is perceived as a different color by the human eye, depending on the wavelength of the light. In particular, we have:

Violet: 380 - 450 nm

Blue: 450 - 495 nm

Green: 495 - 570 nm

Yellow: 570 nm - 590 nm

Orange: 590 nm - 620 nm

Red: 620 nm - 750 nm

PLEASE HELLLP what's the chemical equation for hydrogen and balance it. ​
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Chemical reactions are represented on paper by chemical equations. For example, hydrogen gas (H2) can react (burn) with oxygen gas (O2) to form water (H20). The chemical equation for this reaction is written as: The '+' is read as 'reacts with' and the arrow '' means 'produces'.

The freight cars a and b have a mass of 20 mg and 15 mg, respectively. if the cars collide and couple together, what is the velo
igomit [66]

Suppose car A is moving with a velocity Va, and car b with a velocity Vb,

According the principle of conservation of momentum:

Va x Ma + Vb x Mb = (Ma + Mb) V

V = (Va x Ma + Vb x Mb)/(Ma +Mb)

V = speed of cars after coupling

V = (Va x 20 mg + Vb x  15 mg)/(20 mg + 15 mg)

Put in the values of Va and Vb, and get the V
