Answer:

First option, third option, fourth option, and the fifth option.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is energy an object has when it's motion, the greater the speed the greater the kinetic energy. For example, a car moving and increasing in speed is kinetic energy since the object is in motion. If the car stops and parks in a parking lot that is potential energy. Potential energy is the amount of energy an object has when it's at rest or not in motion.

So, the answer for this question is as followed first option or "energy can be stored in the position of an object." Third option or "Energy can be stored in the position of the particles that make up a substance." Fourth option or "Energy exists as movement of the particles of a substance." The last answer will be the fifth option or "Energy is greater in faster-moving particles than in slower-moving particles."

Hope this helps.

Let's cut through the weeds and the trash
and get down to the real situation:

A stone is tossed straight up at 5.89 m/s .
      Ignore air resistance.

Gravity slows down the speed of any rising object by 9.8 m/s every second.
So the stone (aka Billy-Bob-Joe) continues to rise for

   (5.89 m/s / 9.8 m/s²) = 0.6 seconds.

At that timer, he has run out of upward gas. He is at the top
of his rise, he stops rising, and begins to fall.

His average speed on the way up is (1/2) (5.89 + 0) = 2.945 m/s .

Moving for 0.6 seconds at an average speed of 2.945 m/s,
he topped out at

(2.945 m/s) (0.6 s) = 1.767 meters above the trampoline.

With no other forces other than gravity acting on him, it takes him
the same time to come down from the peak as it took to rise to it.

   (0.6 sec up) + (0.6 sec down) = 1.2 seconds until he hits rubber again.

A 100-kg spacecraft is in a circular orbit about Earth at a height h = 2RE .

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of the Gravitational Force and the centripetal force by equilibrium,

$F_g = F_c$

$\frac{GmM}{r^2} = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

Where,

m = Mass of spacecraft

M = Mass of Earth

r = Radius (Orbit)

G = Gravitational Universal Music

v = Velocity

Re-arrange to find the velocity

$\frac{GM}{r^2} = \frac{v^2}{r}$

$\frac{GM}{r} = v^2$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}$

PART A ) The radius of the spacecraft's orbit is 2 times the radius of the earth, that is, considering the center of the earth, the spacecraft is 3 times at that distance. Replacing then,

$v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(5.97*10^{24})}{3*(6.371*10^6)}}$
