1. A 0.40 kg ball is launched at a speed of 16 m/s from a 22 m cliff.
Masja [62]

Answer:

51.2 J, 86.2 J, 137.4 J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the ball is given by:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m = 0.40 kg is its mass

v = 16 m/s is its speed

Substituting,

K=\frac{1}{2}(0.40)(16)^2=51.2  J

The potential energy of the ball is given by

U=mgh

where

m = 0.40 kg

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

h = 22 m is the heigth of the cliff

Substituting,

U=(0.40)(9.8)(22)=86.2 J

Finally, the total mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic energy and the potential energy:

E=K+U=51.2 + 86.2=137.4 J

A 1.2 kg basketball is thrown upwards. What is the potential energy of the basketball at the top of its path if it reaches a hei
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Answer is 183.6 J

Explanation:

Using the Physics reference sheet the formula for Potential energy is

(mass) x (gravity) x (height)

Mass= 1.2

Gravity I used is 9.81 (use 10 to get the answer most schools use)

Height= 15.6

A solid weighs 16.5N on the surface of the moon. The force of gravity on the moon is 1.7N/Kg.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

mass = 9.7 kg

Explanation:

Weight = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity (g)

16.5 = mass x 1.7

mass = \frac{16.5}{1.7} = 9.7 kg
