Friction or drag from immersion in a fluid damps the motion of an object attached to a spring, eventually bringing the object to rest. QUESTION In the case of friction, what percent of the mechanical energy was lost by the time the mass first reached the equilibrium point

A1000-kg weather rocket is launched straight up. the rocket motor provides a constant acceleration for 16-s, then the motor stops. the rocket altitude 20-s after launch is 510-m. you can ignore any effects of air resistance. a. what was the rocket’s acceleration during the first 16-s? b. what is the rocket’s speed as it passes through a cloud 5100-m above the ground?

Will give brainliest! which statement best describes the difference between strong nuclear forces and weak nuclear forces? weak nuclear forces are involved when certain types of atoms break down. strong nuclear forces are responsible for holding atoms' nucleus together. weak nuclear forces hold bonds between atoms together. strong nuclear forces hold together the nucleus of an atom. strong nuclear bonds prevent atoms from falling apart. weak nuclear bonds prevent compounds from falling apart. strong nuclear forces are involved in breaking electrons from their shells. weak nuclear forces hold protons in the nucleus.
