I remember, as a kid, my mom would get us an Orange Julius at the mall from time to time. It was always a special treat for us. They were SO GOOD. Now, my kids love them, too. Sometimes, when we have ice cream for an evening snack, we add OJ to our vanilla ice cream in the blender, and make a mock-orange Julius. Awhile back I posted a recipe for a Dreamsicile Martini. Super yummy, too! This drink is similarâ¦but itâs just different. It really tastes like an Orange Julius! If your kids are like mine, and drawn to pretty drinks like this when you have one, know that it tastes amazing without the vodka! 5.0 from 1 reviews
When the skier is halfway up the hill the kinetic and potential energies are equal. A few hours later when the skier has reached the top of the mountain, their potential energy is at its maximum and their kinetic energy is zero. Kinetic energy is one half times the mass times the velocity squared. Kinetic energy = 1/2mv 2. Potential energy is the mass times gravity times the height.
In fact, it can never gain an amount of kinetic energy greater than the potential energy it possessed in the first place. At the moment before it hits the ground, the ball's kinetic energy is equal to the potential energy it possessed at the top of the building. Correspondingly, its potential energy is zeroâthe same amount of kinetic energy it possessed before it was dropped. Then, as the ball hits the ground, the energy is dispersed. Most of it goes into the ground, and depending on the rigidity of the ball and the ground, this energy may cause the ball to bounce.
