To answer this question, first we take note that the maximum height that can be reached by an object thrown straight up at a certain speed is calculated through the equation,
                            Hmax = v²sin²θ/2g
where v is the velocity, θ is the angle (in this case, 90°) and g is the gravitational constant. Since all are known except for v, we can then solve for v whichi s the initial velocity of the projectile. 

Once we have the value of v, we multiply this by the total time traveled by the projectile to solve for the value of the range (that is the total horizontal distance).

Answer:

R = \frac{u^2}{g}

Explanation:

Maximum distance covered by the stone can be calculated as follows:

R = \frac{u^2 sin2\theta}{g}

where, u is the initial velocity, θ is the launch angle and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

For maximum horizontal distance, θ should be 45°. Then maximum distance covered would be:

R = \frac{u^2}{g}

Calculate the speed of an 8.0x10^4 kg airliner with a kinetic energy of 1.1x10^9 j ...?
Over [174]
Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object on motion. it is expressed as follows:

KE = 0.5mv^2

where m is the mass and v is the velocity of the object. We calculate as follows:


KE = 0.5mv^2
1.1x10^9 J = 0.5(8.0x10^4 kg) v^2
v = 165.83 m/s

A car drives around a curve with radius 400 m at a speed of 32 m/s. The road is banked at 7.0 degree. The mass of the car is 150
Ronch [10]

Answer:

The magnitude of the centripetal force to make the turn is 3,840 N.

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the cured road, r = 400 m

speed of the car, v = 32 m/s

mass of the car, m = 1500 kg

The magnitude of the centripetal force to make the turn is given as;

F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}

where;

Fc is the centripetal force

F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r} \\\\F_c = \frac{(1500)(32)^2}{400}\\\\F_c = 3,840 \ N

Therefore, the magnitude of the centripetal force to make the turn is 3,840 N.

You climb to the top of a tall water tower and drop a water balloon. As it drops, the balloon is experiencing energy changes. Wh
inysia [295]

The balloon’s potential energy was transformed to kinetic energy as it drops.

Before the balloon was drop it possessed potential energy but at the moment the balloon was dropped the potential energy it possessed was transformed into kinetic energy.
