Question 2.2. A book is given a sudden push to make it slide along a desktop. If the initial speed of the slide is doubled, by what factor is the distance that the book slides changed?
(Points : 1)
0.5
0.25

4.0
Question 3.3. A 720 kg roller-coaster car starts off from Location A. Assuming friction does not impede the car's motion, what will be the change in its potential energy by moving from Location A to Location B?
(Points : 1)
7.1 × 103 J
6.1 × 104 J
6.0 × 105 J
7.8 × 105 J
Question 4.4. A 20 kg cart is moving at 2.0 m/s when a 5.0 N force is applied for a distance of 6.0 m in the direction the car is moving. What is the kinetic energy of the cart at the end of the 6.0 m?
(Points : 1)
40 J
70 J
10 J
30 J
Question 5.5. A 0.145 kg baseball is thrown from a platform above the ground at a 10 m/s. The ball is moving 15 m/s when it strikes the ground. From what height above the ground was the ball thrown?
(Points : 1)
6 m
10 m
5 m
1 m
Question 6.6. An extremely elastic ball loses only 20 percent of its kinetic energy in a bounce. If such a ball were dropped from a height of 5.0 m, how high would the ball bounce?
(Points : 1)
1.0 m
2.0 m
4.0 m
5.0 m

Hmmm...
- mechanical energy sometimes changes into thermal energy
