The ball has the greatest potential energy when it reaches the top of its flight. Option C is correct.

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

The potential energy of a body or object is due to its position. The ball has the greatest potential energy when it reaches the highest point.

U = mgh

Where,

U - potential energy

m - mass

g - gravitation acceleration

h - height

Since the mass and gravitation acceleration is constant hence potential energy will be directly proportional to the height of the ball.

Therefore, the ball has the greatest potential energy when it reaches the top of its flight.

The line graph below shows the number of downloads of two songs after
daser333 [38]

Answer: D

1200

Explanation:

Song 1 is spotted with a cube sign.

At 3 minute, trace the spot to the vertical axis. And you will notice that it a little bit above 10.

Since it is above 10, let assume it is equal to 12.

The number of song downloaded are in hundreds. Therefore, multiply the 12 by 100

12 × 100 = 1200 downloads

Approximately, song 1 has 1200 downloads at minute 3

After the big bang, atoms in gas clouds experienced a greater gravitational pull to each other than atoms in other regions of th
allsm [11]
Answer:
These are the two statements with scientific facts that explain the described phenomenon
<span>
Gravitation between two objects increases when the distance between them decreases.</span>

When the mass of an object increases, its gravitational pull also increases.

Justification:

Those two facts are represented in the Universal Law of Gravity discovered by the scientific Sir Isaac Newton (1642 to 1727) and published in his book <span>Philosophiae naturalis principia mathematica.</span>

That law is represented by the equation:

F = G × m₁ × m₂ / d²

The product of the two masses on the numerator accounts for the fact that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of the masses, which is that as the masses increase the attraction also increase.

The term d² (square of the distance that separates the objects) in the denominator accounts for the fact that the gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance; that is as the separation of the objects increase the gravitational force decrease.

A 3.0 kg box is sliding along a frictionless horizontal surface with a speed of 1.8 m/s when it encounters a spring. (a) Determi
krok68 [10]

Answer:

a) k = 2231.40 N/m

b) v = 0.491 m/s

Explanation:

Let k be the spring force constant , x be the compression displacement of the spring and v be the speed of the box.

when the box encounters the spring, all the energy of the box is kinetic energy:

the energy relationship between the box and the spring is given by:

1/2(m)×(v^2) = 1/2(k)×(x^2)

    (m)×(v^2) = (k)×(x^2)

a) (m)×(v^2) = (k)×(x^2)

                 k = [(m)×(v^2)]/(x^2)

                 k = [(3)×((1.8)^2)]/((6.6×10^-2)^2)

                 k = 2231.40 N/m

Therefore, the force spring constant is 2231.40 N/m

b) (m)×(v^2) = (k)×(x^2)

             v^2 = [(k)(x^2)]/m

                 v =  \sqrt{ [(k)(x^2)]/m}

                 v = \sqrt{ [(2231.40)((1.8×10^-2)^2)]/(3)}

                    = 0.491 m/s
