A child throws a baseball upward with an initial velocity of 20 m/s. The child wants to throw the baseball at least as high as t
Umnica [9.8K]
When the ball starts its motion from the ground, its potential energy is zero, so all its mechanical energy is kinetic energy of the motion:
E= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where m is the ball's mass and v its initial velocity, 20 m/s.

When the ball reaches its maximum height, h, its velocity is zero, so its mechanical energy is just gravitational potential energy:
E=mgh

for the law of conservation of energy, the initial mechanical energy must be equal to the final mechanical energy, so we have
\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh
From which we find the maximum height of the ball:
h= \frac{v^2}{2g}= \frac{(20 m/s)^2}{2 \cdot 9.81 m/s^2}=20.4 m

Therefore, the answer is yes, the ball will reach the top of the tree.

A 40.0 kg beam is attached to a wall with a hi.nge and its far end is supported by a cable. The angle between the beam and the c
irinina [24]

288.51 N is  the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge.

Given

Mass 0f beam = 40 Kg

The horizontal component of the force exerted by the hi_nge on the beam is 86.62 N

Angle between the beam and cable is = 90°

Angle between beam and the horizontal component = 31°

As the system of the beam, hi_nge and cable are in equilibrium.

The magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi_nge can be calculated by -

F =The  horizontal component of force + the vertical component of force  

F = 86.62 N + 40 × 9.8 × sin 31°

F =86.62 N + 201.89 N

F = 288.51 N

Hence, the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi_nge is 288.51  N.

Calculate the speed of a bike rider who accelerates (from rest) for 5 seconds down a hill at an acceleration of 8
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

speed=abs(v)=40ms^-1

Explanation:

acceleration, a = (v-u)/t

since initial velocity u=0 (at rest) and a=8ms^-2,

8=v/5

hence after 5 seconds, v=40ms^-1
