If all the energy she put into bending the bow is completely
transmitted to the arrow, then the arrow has the 100 joules
of kinetic energy when it leaves the bow.

                 Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

                         100 J        = (1/2) (0.5 kg) (speed²)

Divide each side by 0.25 kg:    100 J / 0.25 kg = speed²

 [ joule ] = [ newton-meter ] = kg-m²/sec²

                                                100 kg-m²/sec² / 0.25 kg = speed²

                                                 400 m²/sec² = speed²

Take the square root of each side:     speed = √400 m/s

                                                                                20 m/s

                                                                    (about 44.7 mph)

An object is projected with initial speed v0 from the edge of the roof of a building that has height H. The initial velocity of
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial velocity u = V₀ in upward direction so it will be negative

u = - V₀

Displacement s = H . It is downwards so it will be positive

Acceleration = g ( positive as it is also downwards )

Using the formula

v² = u² + 2 g s

v² = (- V₀ )² + 2 g H

= V₀² + 2 g H .

v = √ ( V₀² + 2 g H )

A ball thrown with 50N of force accelerates at 25 m/s2.  What is the mass of the ball?
MrRissso [65]
F=ma
Force is 50N. Acceleration is 25 m/s^2.
50N=m*25 m/s^2
Divide both sides by 25.
mass=2 kg
