A Ball Is Lifted To Some Height And Then Dropped. Which Of The Following Decreases When The Ball Is Dropped?, A. Kinetic Energy, B. Elastic Potential

A Ball is lifted to some height and then dropped. Which of the following decreases when the ball is dropped?

A. Kinetic Energy
B. Elastic potential energy
C. Total Mechanical energy
D. Gravitational potential energy

 

Answer:

D. Gravitational potential energy

Explanation:

The total mechanical energy never change.

When the ball is lifted, it gains potential energy and loses kinetic energy. When the ball is dropped, it gains kinetic energy and loses potential energy. Since it is stated that the ball is dropped, meaning it does not depend on the objects shape but rather on its weight and height from the ground. This energy is called Gravitational Potential Energy.

Deforestation And The Burning Of Fossil Fuels Have Impacted Global Temperatures And Increased Atmospheric Co2 Levels. How Has This Affected Ocean Curr

Deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels have impacted global temperatures and increased atmospheric CO2 levels. How has this affected ocean currents and acidified the ocean? What are some consequences of ocean acidification?   Answer & Explanation: It affects our seawater by making it more acidic and causes carbonated ions to be relatively less abundant because our ocean absorbs 30% of CO2 in the atmosphere and when the level of CO2 increases, the CO2 in the ocean also increases which results to a series of chemical reactions that increases the production of hydrogen ions. Ocean acidification may lead to the destruction of marine life because the increase in the acidity of the seawater makes it harder for corals to build it skeletons which is particularly important beacuse they provide a home for many other sea creatures.
