Answer:

Potential energy

Explanation:

Before release, the catapult has potential energy stored in a tension of torsion device in it. Normally a flexible bow like object that could be made of wood or of metal.

Answer:

955.36 seconds ≈ 16 minutes

Explanation:

Power(P) is the rate of doing work(W)

That is, P = W/t, where t is the time.

multipying both sides with 't' and dividing with 'P', we get: t=W/P

Here, W = 5.35 x 10^10 J and P = 5.6 x 10^7 W ( 1 W = 1 J/s).

Therefore , on dividing W with P, we get 955.36 seconds.

Step 2: Apply NEwton's second law Apply ∑Fy = may , what should ay be equal to, since the block doesn't move in the y direction
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

∑Fy = 0, because there is no movement, N = m*g*cos (omega)

Explanation:

We can solve this problem with the help of a free body diagram where we show the respective forces in each one of the axes, y & x. The free-body diagram and the equations are in the image attached.

If the product of mass by acceleration is zero, we must clear the normal force of the equation obtained. The acceleration is equal to zero because there is no movement on the Y-axis.

A ball is thrown straight up at time t=0 with an initial speed of 19m/s. Take the point of release to be y0=0 and upwards to be
Wittaler [7]
First we write the corresponding kinematics equations:
 a = -g
 v = -g * t + vo
 y = -g * ((t ^ 2) / 2) + vo * t + yo
 Substituting the values:
 y = - (9.81) * (((0.50) ^ 2) / 2) + (19) * (0.50) + (0) = 8.27m
 answer:
 the displacement at the time of 0.50s is 8.27m
