A 2 kg ball sits at the top of a 3.2 m hill How fast does it move at the bottom of the hill?
This is an application of energy equations. Take the equation where it sets the Gravitational Potential energy (GPE) equal to the kinetic energy equation (KE) because you are trying to find velocity or how fast it moves to the bottom of the hill. mgh = 1/2mv² I will assume you know what each letter stands for, and that 10 is gravity. 2(10)(3.2) = (.5)(2)v² 64 = (1)v² or just 64 = v² Take the square of 64, and that is your answer.

A downhill skier can travel 75 miles per hour how long would it take the skier to travel 150 miles at that speed?
2 hours.
Which energy changes take place when you eat a chocolate bar run up a hill and then roll down it?
The sugar in the chocolate bar is converted to kinetic energy in the muscles, and that energy takes you up the hill. But normally you do not get that energy back by rolling down the hill because it's all absorbed in friction that you use to keep your speed in check.
A down skier can travel 75 miles per hour how long would it take the skier to travel 150 miles at speed?
Two hours. 150 divided by 75=2.
You are towing a skier behind your boat Which of these is a safety precaution you should take?
Always check the path ahead for obstacles, ensure the skier is wearing a Coast Guard-approved water flotation device, never attempt sudden or sharp turns, and if the skier falls, stop immediately.
What kind of energy does it take to ring a hand bell?
The energy comes from the work done by the ringer in pulling the rope on the bell. This releases kinetic energy in the bell which swings and is hit by the clapper. This causes mechanical vibration in the bell and it emits sound waves.
