A student releases a 0.1 kg ball from a height of 1.5 m above the floor. What is the ball's speed at a height of 0.5 m above the floor? Hint: Think about the initial type(s) of energy and the final type(s) of energy, then set the equations for those types equal to each other.

Iwould think it is temperature, silica, oxides (gases)

Stars are born within the clouds of dust and scattered throughout most galaxies. a familiar example of such as a dust cloud is the orion nebula. turbulence deep within these clouds gives rise to knots with sufficient mass that the gas and dust can begin to collapse under its own gravitational attraction. as the cloud collapses, the material at the center begins to heat up. known as a protostar, it is this hot core at the heart of the collapsing cloud that will one day become a star. three-dimensional computer models of star formation predict that the spinning clouds of collapsing gas and dust may break up into two or three blobs; this would explain why the majority the stars in the milky way are paired or in groups of multiple stars.therefor, i would say the answer is: dust and gases contract.i hope this ! < 3

In the conservation of mass, mass (which is the same as energy) can never be created or destroyed in the same way oil is formed from the remains of small animals and plants that died and fell to the bottom of the sea and their mass (energy) is conserved as oil.
