A ball drops some distance and gains 30 J of kinetic energy. Do NOT ignore air resistance. How much gravitational potential energy did the ball lose? Group of answer choices

Greater than 30 J

Explanation:

We know that if the resistance air is nothing then the potential energy is directly translated into the energy of the kinetic i. e kinetic energy also there is second condition is arises If the resistance of air is used to operate towards the air resistance then the potential energy is greater then the kinetic energy.

In the given mention question the ball is gaining the 30 J of the kinetic energy on drooping it on the air resistance it simply means that the ball is losing the potential energy of 30 J. Therefore the gravitational potential energy of the ball is greater then than 30 J
