50 points i need a 2-kg bowling ball sits on top of a building that is 40 meters tall. it falls to the ground. think about the amounts of potential and kinetic energy the bowling ball has:
• as it sits on top of a building that is 40 meters tall.
• as it is half way through a fall off a building that is 40 meters tall and travelling 19.8 meters per second.
• as it is just about to hit the ground from a fall off a building that is 40 meters tall and travelling 28 meters per second.

1. does the bowling ball have more potential energy or kinetic energy as it sit on top of the building? why?

2. does the bowling ball have more potential energy or kinetic energy as it is half way through its fall? why?

3. does the bowling ball have more potential energy or kinetic energy just before it hits the ground? why?

4. what is the potential energy of the bowling ball as it sits on top of the building?

5. what is the potential energy of the ball as it is half way through the fall, 20 meters high?

6. what is the kinetic energy of the ball as it is half way through the fall?

7. what is the kinetic energy of the ball just before it hits the ground?

How do the measurements of charge at the different locations on the sphere compare to each other? the charge measurements are different at all locations on the sphere. the charge measurements are virtually not the same at all locations on the sphere except for the charge at the very top and at the very bottom that are equal. the charge measurements are virtually the same at all locations on the sphere except for the charge at the very top. at the top, the conductive sphere has a small disk that is made of different material. the charge measurements are the same at all locations on the sphere. what happens to the charge on the conductive sphere when it is connected to a source of charge such as the electrostatic voltage source? nothing will happen because no charge goes around the surface of the sphere. the charge on the conductive sphere spreads out over the surface of the sphere; being greater in some specific locations on the sphere. the charge on the conductive sphere spreads out uniformly over the surface of the sphere. the charge on the conductive sphere spreads out non-uniformly over the surface of the sphere.
