You are having a snowball fight with your best friend on a frosty winter day. You are standing on the roof of your 5 m tall house with a 0.4 kg snowball. You drop the snowball downward from rest toward your friend, who is making snow angels below you. Ignoring air resistance, solve for the gravitational potential energy of
the snowball before it is released.

a) 12.5 J

b) 19.6J

c) 5J

d) 2J

A23 kg log of wood begins from rest, 300 m up a sluice (a water track used to transport logs, think of it as an inclined plane with negligible friction) inclined at 20° to the horizontal. after it reaches the flat waterway at the bottom it collides elastically with a 100 kg block of wood initially at rest near the base of the incline. (a) how long does it take the 23 kg log to travel down the incline? (b) what is the speed of the 23 kg log at the bottom of the incline? (c) what are the velocities of both blocks of wood after the collision? (d) what is the total kinetic energy before the collision? (e) what is the kinetic energy of the 23 kg log after the collision? (f) what is the kinetic energy of the 100 kg block of wood after the collision? (g) what is the total kinetic energy after the collision? (h) compare the total initial and total final kinetic energies. is this consistent with what you would expect for elastic collisions? explain!

In which situation has the independent variable for the experiment been changed? check all that apply. changed from counting the number of duckweed at day 0 and day 14 to counting them every day changed from testing duckweed growth in beakers to testing duckweed growth in large outdoor tanks changed from testing the effect of ph on duckweed growth to testing the effect of light levels on duckweed growth changed from testing the effect of acid ph on duckweed growth to testing the effect of basic ph on duckweed growth
