The problem is missing some parts. But here are the questions and answers.

a.       Use the work-energy theorem to find its speed just as it left the ground 

Initial Kinetic Energy = GPE + KE

1/2 * m * V^2 = m * g * h + 1/2 * m * v^2

V^2 = 2 * 9.8 * 15.6 + 25.6^2

=sqrt 968.96

V (initial speed) ≈ 31.130 m/s

 

b.      Use the work-energy theorem to look for its maximum height. 

H = 968.96 / 2 * 9.8 ≈ 49.44 <span>m</span>

The key to making a concise mathematical definition of escape velocity is to consider the energy. If an object is launched at it
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

The total Mechanical energy will be zero

Explanation: Escape velocity is the velocity required by a free object in order to overcome the impact of the force of gravity. The total mechanical energy of an object is the total energy possessed by an object which includes its kinectic and potential energy.

since the object is moving at an escape velocity which is 11.2m/s the object will be assumed to be weightless

Etotal = kinetic energy + potential energy

kinetic energy= 1/2*M*V*V

Potential energy=MGH

Etotal=1/2*0*11.2*11.2+0*0*0

Etotal=0+0

Etotal=0.

A balloon is expanded to the same volume as that of a human head. Do an order-of-magnitude estimate of the volume of this balloo
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Volume of balloon =  1000 cm^3

Explanation:

 The head of a normal person can be assumed as a sphere with radius 10 cm.

 Volume of sphere =\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3, where r is the radius.

 We have approximate radius = 10 cm.

  Approximate volume of head =\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3=\frac{4}{3} *\pi* 10^3=4188cm^3

 In the given options the closest value to the approximate volume is 1000 cm^3.

 So, volume of head = Volume of balloon =  1000 cm^3

Two football players are pushing a 60 kg blocking sled across the field at a constant speed of 2.0 m/s. The coefficient of kinet
MArishka [77]

Answer:

The sled slides d=0.155 meters before rest.

Explanation:

m= 60 kg

V= 2 m/s

μ= 0.3

g= 9.8 m/s²

W= m * g

W= 588 N

Fr= μ* W

Fr= 176.4 N

∑F = m * a

a= (W+Fr)/m

a= 12.74m/s²

t= V/a

t= 0.156 s

d= V*t - a*t²/2

d= 0.155 m
