Explain how energy is conserved when you throw a ball into the air and then catch it?

When it is in your hand you have potential energy, then when you throw it you use mechanical, it has kinetic in the air, then slowly shanges to potential in the air, then all the way potentail energy in your hand.

∙ 10y agoEnergy is always conserved. That means that it can't be created or destroyed.
If some energy seems to suddenly show up, you can always find where it came
from if you look around. And if some energy seems to suddenly disappear, you
can always find where it went to if you look around.
When you hold the ball high off of the ground, it has potential energy. When
you drop it, it loses potential energy as it falls lower, but it gains kinetic energy
as it travels faster. The sum of its potential and kinetic energy at any instant
of time is always the same. The energy you gave it when you lifted it high is
conserved. (You got that energy from food you ate, and used your muscles
to lift the ball high and give it potential energy. The food you ate got that
energy from the sun. No new energy was ever created.)

How is energy conserved when you throw a ball into the air and then catch it?
The summation of potential and kinetic energy is constant
What type of energy transformation occurs when you throw a ball in the air and catch it?
well im not 100% sure but id probably say kinetic energy.
When you throw a ball potential energy becomes?
kenetic energy
Examples of the law of conservationof energy?
Since energy is ALWAYS conserved, anything that happens is an "example". For example, an object just sitting around. However, it is usually more interesting to analyze what happens when one type of energy is converted to another. For example, if a car brakes, the car's kinetic energy is converted to heat (in the brakes); when you throw an object up, kinetic energy is converted to potential energy; when it falls back down, the potential energy is converted back to kinetic energy; and if in this example there is air resistance, part of the kinetic energywill be converted to heat.
What type of energy is it when you throw a ball upward and it falls?
gravity
How is energy conserved when you throw a ball into the air and then catch it?
The summation of potential and kinetic energy is constant
When you throw a matter from a height why mechanical energy is not conserved?
When you throw matter from a height, mechanical energy is not conserved by you, but it is by the matter. You are exerting mechanical energy to throw the object, and the matter is conserving it by not having to do any work to move.
How do you say I like to throw and catch a football?
I say it this way: "I like to throw and catch a football."
What is the antonym to catch?
An antonym of catch is pitch or throw.
Can you throw exception from catch block?
100% yes but it is not a suggested practice. The purpose of a catch block in java code is to handle exceptions. If you want to throw exceptions, then there is no point in writing the try-catch block. We could throw the exception at the point where it occurs instead of writing the try - catch block to catch it and throw it again.
What can you throw but catch?
Cold.
