The total amount of potential and kinetic energy in an object is called mechanical energy. true or false

Afisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surface of the water. it takes a time of 2.20 s for the boat to travel from its highest point to its lowest, a total distance of 0.670 m . the fisherman sees that the wave crests are spaced a horizontal distance of 5.80 m apart. (a) how much is the wavelength? (b) find the period of the wave. (c) how fast are the waves traveling? (d) what is the amplitude a of each wave?

Acalorimeter uses the principle that thermal energy flows from hotter material to colder material until both reach the same

Astone is thrown with a speed v0 and returns to earth, as the drawing shows. ignore friction and air resistance, and consider the initial and final locations of the stone. which one of the following correctly describes the change δpe in the gravitational potential energy and the change δke in the kinetic energy of the stone as it moves from its initial to its final location? options a.δpe = 0 j and δke = 0 j b.δpe is positive and δke is negative c.δpe = 0 j and δke is positive d.δpe is negative and δke is positive e.δpe = 0 j and δke is negative
