Understanding wind movement is increasingly important as wind power becomes more common. Wind turbines are driven by air and create electricity, so faster air means more power. Air close to Earth's surface doesn't move as quickly because it is slowed by friction with Earth's surface. Wind turbines are tall in order to access the faster-moving air above Earth's surface. Which of the following options describe the features of the ideal location to erect wind turbines in order to generate the most electricity? Select the two that apply.
Work is done on an object to increase its total energy. Which one of the following is true?
A. Both the kinetic energy and potential energy can be larger B. The total work done must be equal to the energy lost to heat and sound C. If the potential energy increases, then the kinetic energy must decrease D. The object must have a larger speed and smaller height above the ground
A ball is rolled horizontally off a table with an initial speed of 0.24 m/s. A stop watch measures the ball's trajectory time from table to the floor to be 0.20 s. How far away from the table does the ball land? (g = 9.8 m/s2 and air resistance is negligible)
a. 0.24 m b. 0.048 m c. 0.39 m d. 0.15 m e. 0.47 m
