A 5kg ball is on top of the school building at a height of 40m above the ground. A. calculate the potential energy of the ball at that height.

B. How much power would it take to get the ball from the ground to that height in 1 minute.

C. If it is dropped what type of energy will the ball have as it approaches the ground.

D. What speed will the ball hit the ground

During physical science, ms. greene challenged her students to produce an energy transformation. james and jill wrapped a 4-inch nail with a coil of fifty turns of wire. they connected one end of the coil to one terminal of a knife switch. they connected the other terminal of the knife switch to the battery. finally, they connected the end of the coil to the other terminal of the battery. james held the tip of a 1-inch nail near the flat end of the 4-inch nail. jill closed the knife switch quickly and then opened it. the 1-inch nail was pulled toward the 4-inch nail. what is the best explanation of why the nail moved? a) electrical energy was converted to mechanical energy in the 1-inch nail. b) the 4-inch nail became an electromagnet and the magnetic force attracted the 1-inch nail. c) the electric current in the 4-inch nail was converted to mechanical energy in the 1-inch nail. d) the 4-inch nail had a positive charge and the 1-inch nail had a negative charge. opposites attracted.

How is zig zagging a form of acceleration?

Ahot-air balloon is 11.0 m above the ground and rising at a speed of 7.00 m/s. a ball is thrown horizontally from the balloon basket at a speed of 9.00 m/s. ignore friction and air resistance and find the speed of the ball when it strikes the ground.
