Answer:
A. The time it takes the projectile to reach the top of its path is about 1 second.
Explanation:
Hi there!
The equation of the velocity of a projectile fired straight up is the following:
v = v0 + g · t
Where:
v = velocity of the projectile.
v0 = initial velocity.
g = acceleration due to gravity (≅ -9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive)
t = time.
When the projectile reaches the top of its path, its velocity is zero, then, using the equation of velocity, we can solve it for the time:
v = v0 + g · t
0 = 10 m/s - 9.8 m/s² · t
t = -10 m/s / -9.8 m/s²
t = 1.0 s
The time it takes the projectile to reach the top of its path is about 1 second.
Answer:
1,840,000 J
Explanation:
The energy required for a particular change in state is given by the specific latent heat. Specific latent heat is the amount of energy required to change the state of 1 ... of ice into 1 kg of water at its melting point of 0°C. The same amount of energy ... stored or released as the temperature of a system changes can be calculated.
Answer:
Energy due to air resistance = 31.8 Joules
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of energy, energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another
Kinetic Energy + Energy due to air resistance = Potential energy..........(1)
If there is no energy loss due to air resistance, potential energy = kinetic energy
mass, m = 1.5 kg
height, h = 4.0 m
speed, v = 6 m/s
Kinetic energy = 0.5 mv²
Kinetic energy = 0.5 * 1.5 * 6²
Kinetic energy = 27 Joules
Potential Energy = mgh
Potential energy = 1.5 * 9.8 * 4
Potential energy = 58.8 Joules
From equation (1)
27 + Energy due to air resistance = 58.8
Energy due to air resistance = 58.8 - 27
Energy due to air resistance = 31.8 Joules
