A tennis ball is hit into the air with a racket. When is the ball’s kinetic energy the greatest? Ignore air resistance.
1 answer:
Answer B is the correct answer
We know that kinetic energy , where m is the mass of object and v is the velocity of object.
In this case only velocity is the variable, mass remains constant.
So point having higher velocity has higher kinetic energy.
When it leaves the racket, the ball will be having a certain height, but just before it reaches the ground it will not having any height. So maximum velocity of ball is at that time when it reaches just above the ground.
So option B is the correct answer.

When boat is sunk into the liquid the net buoyancy on the boat is counterbalanced by weight of the boat
So here weight of the boat = Buoyancy force
let say boat is sunk by distance "h"
now we can say
now by above force balance equation we can write
so boat will sunk by total 5 mm distance
