Answer:

2943 J

Explanation:

Potential energy = mass x acceleration due to gravity x height in meters

(P.E. = mgh)

Substitute the given numbers: (I take acceleration due to gravity as 9.81 m s^-2)

PE = 40 x 9.81 x (0.15x50)

PE = 2943 J

A baseball is thrown at an angle of 20° relative to the ground at a speed of 25 m/s if the ball was caught 50 m from the thrower
scoray [572]

Answer:

2.1 s

Explanation:

The motion of the ball is a projectile motion. We know that the horizontal range of the ball is

d = 50 m

And that the initial speed of the ball is

u=25 m/s

at an angle of

\theta=20^{\circ}

So, the horizontal speed of the ball (which is constant during the entire motion) is

u_x = u cos \theta = 25 \cdot cos 20^{\circ} = 23.5 m/s

And since the horizontal range is 50 m, the time taken for the ball to cover this distance was

t=\frac{d}{u_x}=\frac{50}{23.5}=2.1 s

which is the time the ball spent in air.

This is probably gravity because without gravity, everything would just be some hot dust floating through space
