Suppose a skydiver (mass =100kg) is falling towards the earth. when the skydiver is 80 m above the earth he is moving at 60 m/s at this point calculate the skydivers kinetic energy

at positions a, g kinetic energy is maximum.

at position d, potential energy is maximum.

d) physical means can be used to separate the components of air.

note: the given question is incomplete.

complete question is given below.

which is an example of kinetic energy?

a. the energy stored in ethanol  

b. a hockey puck sliding across the ice  

c. a compressed spring  

d. a ball sitting at the top of a ramp

solution: the kinetic energy is the energy posses by the virtue of the motion of the object.

in the given options, a, c and d are the example of potential energy because it is the energy posses by the virtue of the rest of the object. but option b has the kinetic energy as the object is in motion.

hence, a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the apex example of kinetic energy.

so, the option (b) a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the correct option.
