Mechanical energy (ME) is the sum of potential energy (PE) and kinetic energy (KE). When the toy falls, energy is converted from PE to KE, but by conservation of energy, ME (and therefore PE+KE) will remain the same.
Therefore, ME at 0.500 m is the same as ME at 0.830 m (the starting point). It's easier to calculate ME at the starting point because its just PE we need to worry about (but if we wanted to we could calculate the instantaneous PE and KE at 0.500 m too and add them to get the same answer).
At the start:
ME = PE = mgh
ME = 0.900 (9.8) (0.830)
ME = 7.32 J
Answer:
v=12.5 i + 12.5 j m/s
Explanation:
Given that
m₁=m₂ = m
m₃ = 2 m
Given that speed of the two pieces
u₁=- 25 j m/s
u₂ =- 25 i m/s
Lets take the speed of the third mass = v m/s
From linear momentum conservation
Pi= Pf
0 = m₁u₁+m₂u₂ + m₃ v
0 = -25 j m - 25 i m + 2 m v
2 v=25 j + 25 i m/s
v=12.5 i + 12.5 j m/s
Therefore the speed of the third mass will be v=12.5 i + 12.5 j m/s

Explanation:
The escape velocity is the velocity needed by any object to overcome the gravitational force of the planet on which it’s present. Now we know that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of the planet and inversely proportional to the distance of the object from the center of planet.
If we keep the mass of earth constant and decrease the size of the earth than this will decrease the distance between the object and the center of the earth and thus the gravitational force that will act on the body will increase substantially which will in turn increase the value of the escape velocity.
The value of escape velocity will keep on increasing as the size of the earth will shrink till it reaches to a point when the value of escape velocity becomes more than the speed of light and since it’s impossible to travel with a speed greater than the speed of light and therefore at this point it will become impossible for a spacecraft to escape the earth.

First, calculate the mass of the water used. You do this by subtracting the original mass of the flask from the combined mass of the water and flask, giving:60.735 g - 31.601 g = 29.134 g
So we now know we have 29.134 g of water. To calculate the volume of the flask, simply divide by the density of the water, giving:29.134 g / (0.9973 g/cm3) = 29.213 cm3
Answer:
33.6 m
Explanation:
Given:
v₀ = 0 m/s
a = 47.41 m/s²
t = 1.19 s
Find: Δx
Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²
Δx = (0 m/s) (1.19 s) + ½ (47.41 m/s²) (1.19 s)²
Δx = 33.6 m
