Inelastic, because the ball 'glued' to the girl, so she has the same quantity of movement as the ball
Answer:
Option A

Explanation:
From fundamental equation of motion
where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration of the body and s is the displacement.
Since the initial velocity is zero
Making acceleration, a the subject of the formula then

Substituting 5 m/s for v and 2.5 m for s then

Answer:
the work done by gravity on the boy is 604.62 J
Explanation:
Given;
distance the boy slides, d = 3 m
angle of inclination of the playground, θ = 40⁰
mass of the boy, m = 32 kg
The vertical height, h, above the ground through which the boy falls represents the height of the triangle which is the opposite side.
The distance through which the boy slides, d, represents the hypotenuse side of the right triangle.

The work done by gravity on the boy is calculated as;
W = P.E = mgh
= 32kg x 9.8m/s² x 1.928m
= 604.62 J
Therefore, the work done by gravity on the boy is 604.62 J
