If I remember it correctly, heat capacity is inversely proportional to mass so the answer is:
The heat capacity of an object depends in part on its a. mass
KE=1/2mv^2 - equation for kinetic energy
KE=(1/2)(0.12 kg)((7.8 m/s)^2 - plug it into the formula
KE=(0.06 kg)(60.84 m/s) - multiply 1/2 to the mass and square the speed
KE= 3.7 J - answer
Hope this helps
The potential energy is most often referred to as the "energy at rest" and is dependent on the elevation of an object. This can be calculated through the equation,
E = mgh
where E is the potential energy, m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height. In this item, we are not given with the mass of the cart so we assume it to be m. The force is therefore,
E = m(9.8 m/s²)(0.5 m) = 4.9m
Hence, the potential energy is equal to 4.9m.
Answer:
Kinetic energy is the amount of energy a object has while it's in motion, and thermal energy is heat energy. In this case when the heat rises in substances for example a solid it will transform into a liquid causing the molecules to move faster which is a increase of kinetic energy.
