Rockets are launched from an airplane in the forward direction of motion. The kinetic energy of the plane will be
Decreased
A popular toy consists of an aligned row of identical elastic balls suspended by strings so they touch each other. When two balls on one end are elevated and released, they slam into the array of balls and two balls pop out the other side. If instead, one ball popped out with twice the speed, this would be a violation of the conservation of

A pulley system can change only direction, it can't multiply forces as well.
False
In physics, the amount of work done on an object is the product is the force exerted on the object times the times the time object moves
False
The energy an object has by virtue of its location is its potential energy.
False
The rate at which work is done is called energy
False
In physics, work id defined as

Four times the work
The unit of work is the
Joule
