When the ball leave your hand it goes up with an initial velocity v0 so that the action of your hand gives the ball the kinetic energy
K=0.5 M v02
where M is the ball mass.
When the ball goes up the kinetic energy decreases: a part is converted in potential energy while the balls is higher and higher and part is dissipates due to the attrition with air (that more precisely is due to air viscosity) and to the fact that air particles are put in motion by the arrival of the ball so that they gain kinetic energy at the expenses of the kinetic energy of the ball due to collision.
Neglecting the last term that, due to the small density of air with respect to the ball is generally quite small, the viscosity dissipate energy mainly by generating heat. When the ball stops at maximum height the kinetic energy is reduced to zero (the velocity is zero) and all the energy is potential, while a certain amount of heat has been dissipated during the motion.
If we call Q the quantity of generated heat and h the maximum height reached by the ball, for the energy conservation rule we have
0.5 M v02=Q+M g h
If the air viscosity is negligible, or if the ball goes up in vacuum, Q is zero and we can deduce the maximum height the ball reaches
h=(M v02)/( 2 M g)

How did the last ball in the figure on the right gain energy?
The last ball gained energy due to potential energy being converted to kinetic energy as it descended the slope. The higher elevation of the starting point stored potential energy, which was then transformed into kinetic energy as the ball rolled down the slope.
Add this type of energy to an object and the temperature rises?
When energy is added to an object, the particles within the object gain kinetic energy and move faster, resulting in an increase in temperature. This process is called thermal energy transfer, where the object absorbs energy and the temperature rises as a result of the increased kinetic energy of its particles.
What energy transformation is in a boiling pot of water?
The energy transformation in a boiling pot of water is from thermal energy (heat) to kinetic energy (movement of water molecules) as the temperature rises and water molecules gain enough energy to escape as water vapor.
Why does a ball inflate on heat?
When a ball is heated, the air molecules inside it gain energy and move faster, causing them to exert more pressure on the walls of the ball. This increased pressure leads to the expansion or inflation of the ball. Conversely, when the ball cools down, the air molecules lose energy and move slower, leading to a decrease in pressure and a reduction in the size of the ball.
A1 has the ball for a throw-in A1 reaches across the plane of the boundary with the ball and B1 grasps the ball so that now both A1 and B1 have a firm grip on the ball Is this a jump ball?
Yes, this situation would result in a jump ball. When players from opposing teams simultaneously and equally gain control of the ball, a jump ball should be called to determine possession.
Do hurricanes gain energy?
Yes, hurricanes gain energy from warm ocean waters. As the warm air rises and condenses, it releases latent heat, which provides the energy needed to strengthen the storm. This process is what fuels the intensification of hurricanes.

When the molecules in a gas heat up?
When a gaseous molecule got heated up, it gain energy and then momentum that makes the molecule rises up higher.
When a copper ball is heated the largest percentage increase will occur in its?
Volume, as the atoms within the copper ball gain kinetic energy and expand, causing the overall size of the ball to increase.
Where do hurricanes gain and lose energy?
Hurricanes gain energy from warm ocean waters and release energy through convection, cloud formation, and precipitation. As warm air rises and condenses in the storm system, it releases heat energy, which drives the hurricane's winds and intensifies the storm.

When temperature rises solids do what?
When temperature rises, solids generally expand because the particles within the solid gain kinetic energy and move with greater vibration, causing the material to take up more space.
When temperature rises particles?
When temperature rises, particles gain kinetic energy and move faster. This causes them to collide more frequently and with greater force, leading to an increase in chemical reactions and changes in physical properties such as expansion or phase changes.
Why does heat expand when it rises?
As a substance is heated, its particles gain energy and move faster, causing the substance to expand. When heat energy is added to a substance, the particles spread out and take up more space, leading to expansion. This is why warm air rises, as it is less dense than the cooler air around it.
