a 1 kg ball dropped from a height of 3 m rebounds only 1.5 m after hitting the ground. the amount of energy converted to heat and sound is about * 1 point a)0.5 j b)1.0 j c)1.5 j d)2.0 j e)more than 2.0 j



Answer :

The amount of energy converted to heat and sound is  about 1.5

What is energy ?

energy is ability to do work.

Scientists define energy as the  the ability to do work. Modern civilization is the  possible because people to  have learned how to change to the  energy from one form to another and then use it to  do work.

Despite this confusing to definition it is  meaning is very simple: energy is to just the force that causes things are  to move. Energy is to  divided into two types of there are  potential and kinetic.

Sol- as per the given data

1 kg ball dropped from a height of = 3m

Rebound after hitting the ground is =1.5m

Now we have to find the potential energy P.E

Let mass of the ball is m

potential energy at height H,(P.E)1=mgH

potential energy at height h (P,E)2=mgh

Find the percentage loss in the potential energy

Loss in the potential energy

∆P.E =mg(H-h)

Percentage loss in the potential energy,

∆P.E =mg (H-h)

Percentage loss in the potential energy,

%∆(P.E)= [mg(H-h)/mgH×100]%

=[mg(3-1.5)/mg×2]

=1.5
