Question 1: In your own words, state the work-energy theorem Question 2: Outline the major difference between Kinetic energy and Potential energy.
Iksha T.
Use the relation between work and kinetic energy given. A major league baseball weighs 5 oz. How much work is required to throw a baseball at a speed of $95 \mathrm{mph}$ ? (The ball's mass is its weight in pounds divided by $32 \mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{suc}^{2}$. the acceleration due to gravity.)
