Imagine that you fill a balloon at sea level (1.0 atm) with 18 L of air. You are taking the balloon to Denver, Colorado, for a birthday party. Colorado is the “Mile High State,” and Denver has an air pressure
of 0.85 atm. When you get to the party, what will the volume of the balloon be?

dang that balls went far

according to jean piaget, in what stage of cognitive development are children able to understand conservation task?

b. preoperational

just took it

answer: the potential energy decreases from 379 j to 243 j

explanation:

for the law of conservation of energy, the total energy in a system must be conserved. the total energy of the system is given by the sum of kinetic (k) and potential (u) energy:

e = k + u

the total energy is e=675 j, and this does not change.

initially, the kinetic energy is k=296 j, so the potential energy is

at the end, the kinetic energy is k=432 j, so the potential energy is

so, we see that the potential energy has decreased from 379 j to 243 j.
