a block of mass 5kg slides down an inclined plane that has an angle of 10 degrees if the inclined plane has no friction and the
2 answers:
In this case, the inclined plane is frictionless and therefore energy is perfectly conserved with no losses. The block originally starts off with some gravitational potential energy, which is then completely converted into kinetic energy. So the initial gravitational potential energy is equal to the final kinetic energy.

Answer:
51.85m/s
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of ball = 0.0459kg
Force = 2380N
Time taken = 0.001s
Unknown:
Speed of the ball afterwards = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we use Newton's second law of motion:
F = m x
F is the force
m is the mass
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken
2380 = 0.0459 x
0.0459v = 2.38
v = 51.85m/s
Answer:
39.7 m
Explanation:
First, we conside only the last second of fall of the body. We can apply the following suvat equation:
where, taking downward as positive direction:
s = 23 m is the displacement of the body
t = 1 s is the time interval considered
is the acceleration
u is the velocity of the body at the beginning of that second
Solving for u, we find:
Now we can call this velocity that we found v,
v = 18 m/s
And we can now consider the first part of the fall, where we can apply the following suvat equation:
where
v = 18 m/s
u = 0 (the body falls from rest)
s' is the displacement of the body before the last second
Solving for s',
Therefore, the total heigth of the building is the sum of s and s':
h = s + s' = 23 m + 16.7 m = 39.7 m
