Step 1
The principle of energy conservation states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another. In the context of a falling object, the gravitational potential energy (GPE) lost by the object is converted into kinetic energy (KE) Show more…

A ball drops some distance and loses 30 J of gravitational potential energy. Do not ignore air resistance. How much kinetic energy did the ball gain? Less than 30 J More than 30 J Exactly 30 J Cannot be determined from the information given:
Paul G.
A 1.2-kg ball tossed at a velocity of 6.7 m/s vertically upward encountered a force of air resistance averaging 1.4 N. (a) Draw a free-body diagram for this ball. (b) Calculate the average net force experienced by the ball. (c) Calculate the average acceleration of the ball. (d) How much height had the ball gained when its velocity was zero. (e) Can the ball reach a height greater than your answer in (d)? Explain.
