As per the question, the mass of meteorite [ m]= 50 kg
The velocity of the meteorite [v] = 1000 m/s
When the meteorite falls on the ground, it will give whole of its kinetic energy to earth.
We are asked to calculate the gain in kinetic energy of earth.
The kinetic energy of meteorite is calculated as -
![Kinetic\ energy\ [K.E]\ =\frac{1}{2} mv^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Kinetic%5C%20energy%5C%20%5BK.E%5D%5C%20%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20mv%5E2)
![=\frac{1}{2}50kg*[1000\ m/s]^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D50kg%2A%5B1000%5C%20m%2Fs%5D%5E2)

Here, J stands for Joule which is the S.I unit of energy.
When an object is falling and reaches a constant velocity, the net force on the object is <em>zero</em> (it's not accelerating), and the weight of the object is equal to <em>the force of air resistance against the object</em>. (choice-D)
<u>Answer:</u>
The height of ramp = 124.694 m
<u>Explanation:</u>
Using second equation of motion,

From the question,
u = 31 m/s; s = 156.3 m, a=0
substituting values

t = 
= 5.042 s
Similary, for the case of landing
t = 5.042 s; initial velocity, u =0
acceleration = acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 
Substituting in 

h = 124.694 m
So height of ramp = 124.694 m
Answer:

Explanation:
From this exercise, our knowable variables are <u>hight and initial velocity </u>


To find how much time does the <u>ball strike the ground</u>, we need to know that the final position of the ball is y=0ft


Solving for t using quadratic formula


or 
<u><em>Since time can't be negative the answer is t=6.96s</em></u>
Answer:
Explanation:
= 4190 J/kg.K
= 910 J/Kg. K
= 1.50 kg
= 1.80 kg

ΔT +
ΔT
= (1.50)(910)(85.0-20)+(1.80)(4190)(85.0-20)
= 578,955 J
= 579 kJ
