Answer:

Ep = 0.6095 [J]

Explanation:

As defined in the problem statement, potential energy is defined as the product of mass by gravity by height. But first we must convert all the values given to measures of the international system (SI)

g = gravity = 10 [m/s^2]

h = elevation = 40 [ft] = 12.19 [m]

m = mass = 5 [g] = 0.005 [kg]

Ep = potential energy [J]

Ep = 0.005*10*12.19 = 0.6095 [J]

1. A ball is launched horizontally at 40 m/s while 6.0 m above a level field . How far will the ball move horizontally before st

Tresset [83]

Answer:

44 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Horizontal velocity of the ball, u = 40 m/s

It is 6 m above the level field.

We need to find the distance covered by the ball when move horizontally before striking the ground. Let it is d.

Firstly, we will find time taken for the ball to hit the ground. Using second equation of motion as follows :

$s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

Put u = 0 and a = g

$s=\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2s}{g}} \\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 6}{9.8}} \\\\t=1.1\ s$

No finding the horizontal distance as follows :

d = ut

d = 40 m/s × 1.1 s

d = 44 m

So, the ball will move 44 m horizontally before striking the ground.
