Soft target by impact and its contribution to indirect bone fractures.
Mechanical energy (ME) is the sum of potential energy (PE) and kinetic energy (KE). When the toy falls, energy is converted from PE to KE, but by conservation of energy, ME (and therefore PE+KE) will remain the same.
Therefore, ME at 0.500 m is the same as ME at 0.830 m (the starting point). It's easier to calculate ME at the starting point because its just PE we need to worry about (but if we wanted to we could calculate the instantaneous PE and KE at 0.500 m too and add them to get the same answer).
At the start:
ME = PE = mgh
ME = 0.900 (9.8) (0.830)
ME = 7.32 J

THE 2ND ONE HOPE THIS HELPED GOD BLESS U
Explanation:
The magnitude of the resultant is
√ (22² + 2.2²) = √ (484 + 4.84) = √488.84 = 22.11 m/s .
The direction of the resultant is
tan⁻¹(22N / 2.2E) = tan⁻¹(10) = 5.71° east of north .
