A 0.50 kilogram ball is held at a height of 20 meters. What is the kinetic energy of the ball when it reaches halfway after being released?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you know the definition of kinetic and potential energy?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

49 joules 98 joules 1.0 × 102 joules 1.1 × 102 joules these are my choices for the answers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of the object

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The definition of kinetic energy is mgh. You lose 1/2 of that to kinetic energy. So your kinetic energy is mgh/2. Plug in values of m g and h to find your answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

m= mass of object g= acceleration due to gravity h= height released from

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk how to do that i was just kinda hoping for the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Don't expect always the answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i wasnt except for this question otherwise i would of asked a teacher how to do it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just plug the values of m and h and u know already g and use the equation mgh to find the kinetic energy.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did n still didnt find the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What's M? What's G? What's H?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Multiply those and divide by 2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk what all of those are

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Someone help me that actually knows physics

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Weight of bell (0.50) * Acceleration due to gravity (9.8) * Height released from (20) / by 2 and you have your answer.
