A 2.35-kg rock is released from rest at a height of 21.4 m. Ignore air resistance and determine (a) the kinetic energy at 21.4 m
kvasek [131]

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of rock, m = 2.35-kg

It was released from rest at a height of 21.4 m.

(a) The kinetic energy is given by : E_k=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

As the rock was at rest initially, it means, its kinetic energy is equal to 0.

(b) The gravitational potential energy is given by : E_p=mgh

It can be calculated as :

E_p=2.35\times 9.8\times 21.4\\\\E_p=492.84\ J

(c) The mechanical energy is equal to the sum of kinetic and potential energy such that,

M = 0 J + 492.84 J

M = 492.84 J

Hence, this is the required solution.

The Jamaican bobsled team was moving at a velocity of 50 m/s, then they hit the brakes on their sled to decelerate at a uniform
atroni [7]

Answer:

The time it took the bobsled to come to rest is 10 s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the bobsled, u = 50 m/s

deceleration of the bobsled, a = - 5 m/s²

distance traveled, s = 250 m

Apply the following kinematic equation to determine the time of motion of the bobsled;

s = ut + ¹/₂at²

250 = 50t + ¹/₂(-5)t²

250 = 50t - ⁵/₂t²

500 = 100t - 5t²

100 = 20t -t²

t² - 20t + 100 = 0

t² -10t - 10t + 100 = 0

t (t - 10) - 10(t - 10) = 0

(t - 10)(t - 10) = 0

t = 10 s

Therefore, the time it took the bobsled to come to rest is 10 s.
