Answer:
a) 0.658 seconds
b) 0.96 inches
Explanation:
Time taken by the ball to reach the highest point is 0.14 seconds
The highest point reached by the snowball above its release point is 0.315 ft
Total height the snowball will fall is 4+0.315 = 4.315 ft
The snowball will reach the bank at 0.14+0.518 = 0.658 seconds after it has been thrown
The snowball goes 0.5-0.42 = 0.08 ft = 0.96 inches
Answer:
4086 J
Explanation:
The potential energy is transformed to kinetic energy less the frictional energy. Potential energy= mgh where m represent mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height of cliff
Since we have force of air resistance, work done due to air resistance will be product of force and distance
Substituting 10 Kg for m, 9.81 for g and 60 m for F then the kinetic energy at the bottom will be
KE= 10*9.81*60- (30*60)=4086 J
