If frictional forces and air resistance were acting upon a falling ball, the kinetic energy of the ball just prior to striking the ground be:

Achild has maximum walking speed of 1.6 m/s. what is the length of the child's legs? 0.26 m

Which type of reaction is shown in this energy diagram? energy products activation energy reactants time o a. endothermic, because energy is released to the surroundings o b. exothermic, because energy is absorbed from the surroundings o c. exothermic, because energy is released to the surroundings o d. endothermic, because energy is absorbed from the surroundings

Amerry-go-round of radius r, shown in the figure, is rotating at constant angular speed. the friction in its bearings is so small that it can be ignored. a sandbag of mass m is dropped onto the merry-go-round, at a position designated by r. the sandbag does not slip or roll upon contact with the merry-go-round. how would you rank the following different combinations of m and r on the basis of the angular speed of the merry-go-round after the sandbag "sticks" to the merry-go-round from largest to smallest. a) m = 10kg, r = 0.25r b) m = 20kg, r = 0.25r c) m = 10kg, r = 0.50r d) m = 10kg, r = 1.0r e) m = 15kg, r = 0.75r f) m = 40kg, r = 0.25r
