Kinetic energy,
Let the velocity of the paper clip when it is thrown be <em>v</em>.
Thus,
(rounding to nearest tenth)
Answer:
600 J
Explanation:
The formula to find the kinetic energy of an object is
- m = mass in kg
- V = velocity in m/s
- KE is measured in Joules just as all other forms of energy.
Now, let's plug in the variables we're given and simplify.
Thus, the answer is 600 Joules.
Let's write the equations of motion on both x- (horizontal) and y- (vertical) axis. On the x-axis, it's a uniform motion with constant velocity vx. On the y-axis, it is a uniformly accelerated motion with initial height h=90 m and acceleration of 
pointing down (so with a negative sign):
First, let's find the time at which the jumper reaches the ground. This happens when Sy(t)=0:
and so
Then, we can find the horizontal speed. In fact, we know that at the time t=4.28 s, when the jumper reached the ground, he covered exactly 180 m, so Sx=180 m. Using this into the law of motion in x, we find
