The horizontal force : f = k*N
k- coefficient of friction
k = f /N
N = m * g = 45 kg * 9.81 m/s² = 441.45 N
k = 25 N : 441.45 N = 0.057
Answer C) 0.057
Answer:
h=15.27m
Explanation:
Since at maximum height the vertical velocity must be null it's better to use the formula:
We will use this formula for the vertical direction, choosing the upward direction as the positive one, so we have:
or
which for our values is:
The periodic sign of magnesium is ------> mg
According to the conservation of mechanical energy, the kinetic energy just before the ball strikes the ground is equal to the potential energy just before it fell.
Therefore, we can say KE = PE
We know that PE = m·g·h
Which means KE = m·g·h
We can solve for h:
h = KE / m·g
= 20 / (0.15 · 9.8)
= 13.6m
The correct answer is: the ball has fallen from a height of 13.6m.
