A soccer ball rolling toward a goal potential or kinetic energy?

Your foot exerts a force on the ball, causing it to accelerate, and the ball exerts the same force on your foot, which does not cause you to accelerate because that force is transmitted through you into the planet Earth that you are standing on, which is so massive that it is not noticeably affected.

∙ 14y agoPotential Energy is represented by U=mgh (U being potential energy, m being mass, g being gravity, and h being height). The equation for Kinetic Energy is K=.5*m*v2 (K being kinetic energy, m being mass, and v being velocity). Thus potential energy depends on the height of something and kinetic energy depends on the speed of something. Because the soccer ball is rolling on the ground, it would have no height (and h=0, therefore potential energy=0) and the ball would have a speed or velocity. Because of this, it would be kinetic energy.

Why was deodorant invented?
deodorant was invented for bad odors suck as playing soccer , basketball , football and teniis
Is the soccer ball a heterogeneous mixture or homogeneous mixture?
it is a hetero because u can clearly see that the parts are not mixed together.
What is the discontinuity of matter?
Matter is discontinous and broken. It is composed of tiny discrete particles called atoms. These atoms are held together by strong attractive forces called bonds--this is what gives matter its appearance of continuity. This is the foundation for the dual nature of light. Just as Louis DeBroglie explains...matters such as base ball and soccer ball are two big to exhibit wavelike properties that's why their particulate properties are observed. And, particles such as elctrons, light, and energy are too small to exhibit particulate properties that's why their wavelike properties are observed. Hence: light, energy and electrons are all kinds of matter. Gideon Ifianayi Professor of Chemistry
How does kenetic and potential energy affect soccer in general?
In soccer, you have a soccer ball. The ball has potential energy. When you kick the ball, the potential becomes kinetic energy and the ball moves. However, your foot has potential energy as well (all matter has potential energy because all matter has the potential to move). When you kick with your foot that potential energy becomes kinetic energy. When the soccer ball is on the ground it actually has no potential energy because potential energy is only associated with height. When the ball is kicked however the kinetic energy from the player is passed on to the ball. That kinetic energy makes the ball move. If the ball is kicked into the air then the kinetic energy is passed on and some of that kinetic energy transforms into potential energy and kinetic.
A soccer player kicks a ball into the air and it lands far down the field Which energy conversion occurs as the ball falls from its highest point?
When a soccer player kicks a ball into the air, its kinetic energy is drained through air resistance and by the force of gravity. At its highest point, the ball has all of its vertical kinetic energy converted into potential energy. As the ball falls, this potential energy is converted back into kinetic energy. It should be noted that through the entire process of rising and falling the ball maintained horizontal kinetic energy being dissipated by resistance until it hit the ground and stopped.
Example of kinetic energy?
Anything that had potential energy then converted to kinetic energy. A good example would a ball. If you are playing bowling and you are swinging the ball backwards and about to through it foward, the ball has potential energy. Once you release it, and while the ball is falling it has kinetic energy. The energy of the changes from potential to kinetic energy. Hope this helps XD
Can energy change form and why?
energy can change form. it can change from kinetic to potential, or kinetic into heat or vise versa. the reason why is because you start out with a type of energy, such as being still and then moving. in that case you are going from potential to kinetic. energy can neither be created nor destroyed. there is always energy in everything you do such as kicking a soccer ball which creates heat on the ground, and then kinetic, and then {finally} sound energy. i might not of answered your question exactly how you wanted it to be answered...sorry for the inconvenience.Etcgirl :)
How does shooting a soccer ball have to do with science?
When you shoot or kick a soccer ball you are transferring energy. when your feet swings back it is storing energy .This is called potential energy and When you kick the ball and the ball flies this is called kinetic energy.Potential energy -stored energyKinetic energy- energy of motion
What decreases kinetic energy?
Kinetic energy is the energy that an object has when it is in motion, so anything that will stop the motion of an object will decrease it's kinetic energy. The motion of an object can be stopped by any outside force acting on the object, whether sudden (think of stopping a rolling soccer ball with your foot -- that's decreasing it's kinetic energy), or continuous (the friction of that ball against the air and ground will eventually cause it to stop rolling on its own). In the vacuum of space where there is no air to create friction a projectile will continue moving at the same speed without stopping and without decreasing its kinetic energy.
Examples of both kinetic and potential energy?
chemical and electromagnetic
What science energy do you give to a soccer ball when you kick it?
Kinetic Energy
Do a soccer ball have energy?
Yes. Air pressure in the ball. Kinetic energy if moving.
A soccer ball rolling across a field has energy of motion?
Is that a ? no it's not!
A soccer player sprinting down the field demonstrates which form of energy?
kinetic
Does rolling soccer ball needs more force to stop than a rolling bowling ball?
Any amount of force can stop either kind of ball. But a greater force is required to stop a bowling ball than to stop a soccer ball IN THE SAME TIME, because the bowling ball has more mass, and therefore more momentum and more kinetic energy.
