A1-lb block and a 100-lb block are placed side by side at the top of a frictionless hill. each is given a very light tap to begin their race to the bottom of the hill. in the absence of air resistance, what can you conclude about the outcome of the race?
a)the 1-lb block wins the race.
b)the 100-lb block wins the race.
c)the two blocks end in a tie.
d)there’s not enough information to determine which block wins the race

b.transmitters send radio waves, and receivers capture radio waves.

magnets not strong enough

explanation:

answer: the potential energy decreases from 379 j to 243 j

explanation:

for the law of conservation of energy, the total energy in a system must be conserved. the total energy of the system is given by the sum of kinetic (k) and potential (u) energy:

e = k + u

the total energy is e=675 j, and this does not change.

initially, the kinetic energy is k=296 j, so the potential energy is

at the end, the kinetic energy is k=432 j, so the potential energy is

so, we see that the potential energy has decreased from 379 j to 243 j.
