A ball starts from rest and rolls down a hill. The height of the hill is not known but when the ball is 3 meters above the ground it is moving at 5 m/s. a) What was the height of the hill? b) What is the total mechanical energy (PE +KE) of the ball at that point if the mass is 1 kg? ignore friction

Ablock of mass 1.5 kg slides down an inclined plane that has an angle of 15. if the inclined plane has no friction and the block starts at a height of 3 m, how much kinetic energy does the block have when it reaches the bottom? acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.8 m/s2. a. 6.8 j b. 50.9 j c. 0 j d. 44.1 j

During the apollo moon missions, astronauts were concerned about the effects of newton's third law of motion when: o a. they ejected waste water, because they were concerned that it would push them off course. o b. they reentered earth's atmosphere, because they were carrying heavy moon rocks. o c. they took off from earth, because a large force was required to generate large acceleration. o d. they detected incoming space debris, because the inertia of the debris could damage their ship.

Two blocks of aluminum (specific heat c=0.22 cal/g celsius) with masses of 1000 g and 100 g are at a temperature of 70 c. which block has more thermal (internal) energy? explain why?
