Ignoring air resistance, the Kinetic energy before hitting the ground will be equal to the potential energy of the Piton at the top of the rock.  
So we have 1/2 MV^2 = MGH 
V^2 = 2GH 
V = âš2GH 
V = âš( 2 * 9.8 * 325)  
V = âš 6370
 V = 79.81 m/s

A bicycle has a momentum of 36 kg* m/s and a very!I city of 4 m/s.What is the mass of the bicycle?
Strike441 [17]

p = 36 kgm/s

v = 4m/s

we know that,

p = mv

so,

m =  \frac{p}{v}

m  =  \frac{36}{4}

m = 9kg

F the voltage in a circuit is 80 volts and the resistance is 20 ohms, what is the current?
jek_recluse [69]

I = 4 A

Explanation:

From Ohm's law, the voltage is given by

V = IR

or

I = V/R = (80 V)/(20 ohms)

= 4 A
