the complete question in the attached figure

we have that

d=0.51 mm------------------------- >0.00051 m

v = √(2ad) = √(2 * 1300m/s² * 0.00051 m) = 1.15 m/s initial velocity

a=9.8 m/s²

Then d = v² / 2a = (1.15m/s)² / (2*9.8) m/s² = 0.059 m = 59 mm

the answer is 59 mm

A person kicks a ball, giving it an initial velocity of 20.0 m/s up a wooden ramp. When the ball reaches the top, it becomes air

Bess [88]

Answer:

Explanation:

given,

initial velocity of the ball = 20 m/s

angle of ramp = 22°

ball travel at a distance = 5 m

a) for friction less

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 = \dfrac{1}{2}mu^2 - mgh$

$v^2 = u^2 - 2gh$

$v = \sqrt{u^2- 2 g h cos 22^0}$

$v = \sqrt{20^2- 2\times 9.8 \times 5 cos 22^0 }$

v = 17.58 m/s

b) considering the friction

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 = \dfrac{1}{2}mu^2 - mgh-\mu_kmgl$

$v^2 = u^2 - 2gh-2\mu_kmgl$

$v = \sqrt{u^2- 2 g h cos 22^0-2\mu_kgl}$

$v = \sqrt{20^2- 2\times 9.8 \times 5 cos 22^0-2\times 0.15\times 9.8 \times 5 }$

v = 17.16 m/s

what is your weight in newtons if your potential energy is equal to 1000 joules and your mass is 60 kg

Darina [25.2K]

Your potential energy and mass don't tell what your weight is.

If I walk up from the first floor to the second floor, my weight hasn't
changed even though my potential energy has increased.

Daily life examples of pressure of solids on solids?

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Explanation:

There's a massive amount, just think of anything everyday. Like a table on the floor, or when your walking around and putting pressure on the floor. When you squeeze something which is solid. Anything like that will do.
