An object that is 0.5 m above the ground has the same amount of potential energy as a spring that is stretched 0.5 m. Each distance is then doubled. How will the potential energies of the object and the spring compare after the distances are doubled? The gravitational potential energy of the object will be two times greater than the elastic potential energy of the spring. The elastic potential energy of the spring will be four times greater than the gravitational potential energy of the object. The elastic potential energy of the spring will be two times greater than the gravitational potential energy of the object. The potential energies will remain equal to one another.

You and a friend (alex) are at a a tree-top adventure park .. . part of the course requires you to climb up a rope. you both climb the same rope in the same amount of time. however, the tension in the rope is greater when alex climbs. who did the most work? alex did - more tension means more force - more force means more work was done you did - less tension means less force - less force means more work was done to find the work done, the force exerted and distance moved are multiplied. a couch is moved twice before you are happy with its placement. the same force was used to move the couch both times. if more work is done the first time it is moved, what do you know about the distance it was moved? when more work was done, the couch was moved less. when more work was done, the couch was moved further. when more work was done, the couch wasn't moved at all. when more work was done, the couch was moved the same distance.

Which statement is true? a. kepler's laws apply only to the motion of earth. b. kepler's laws can be used to predict eclipses. c. kepler's laws are true for a central force that is directly proportional to distance. d. kepler's laws can be deduced from newton's laws of motion and gravity.
