A toy boat moves horizontally in a pond. The horizontal position of the boat in meters over time is shown below.

Ahockey puck sliding along frictionless ice with speed v to the right collides with a horizontal spring and compresses it by 3.0 cm before coming to a momentary stop.

What’s the kinetic energy of the object? use . erica is competing in the shot put event at a track meet. she hurls a shot with a mass of 4 kilograms at a speed of 9 meters/second. the shot’s kinetic energy is joules.

An experiment was performed on a 2-kg block. forces of 5, 10 and 15 newtons respectively were applied to the block for 5 seconds. describe the difference in acceleration between the three trials. a) the final accelerations will all be the same. b) the final acceleration will triple between the first and third trial. c) the final acceleration will be cut by 1/3 from the first to third trial. d) the final acceleration will increase nine time between the first and third trial.
