9. Which of the following is not a true statement? A. The mechanical energy of an object is less than the kinetic energy of the object.
B. The mechanical energy of an object is greater than the potential energy of an object.
C. The kinetic energy of an object is the same as the potential energy of an object.

Hypothesis. why don’t you know this? i learned this stuff in like 5th grade

Ray 2 should cross through the focal point on the right side of the lens.

To compare speeds speeds of wagons we will use second newton's law. it states: f = m * ahere we can see that force depends on the acceleration. if we know acceleration for both wagons we can compare them to make conclusion of speeds of wagons.we have: m1 = 10lbm2 = 20lbf1 = 2*f2also: m2 = 2*m1for bill we have equation: f1 = m1 * a1for tom we have equation: f2 = m2 * a2after inserting identities we have: 2*f2 =m1 * a1f2 = 2*m1 * a2in order to make conclusions about speeds we will solve these equations for a and find their ratio: a1 = 2f2 / m1a2 = f2 / 2m1a1 / a2 = (2f2/m1) / (f2/2m1)a1 / a2 = (2f2*2m1) / (m1*f2)a1 / a2 = (4f2m1) / (m1f2)a1 / a2 = 4this ratio is bigger than 1 and this means that a1 is greater than a2. a1 is 4 times greater than a2. speed of bill's wagon is 4 times greater than speed of tom's wagon.
