A cannon is mounted on a tower above a wide, level field. The barrel of the cannon is 20 m above the ground below. A cannonball

is fired horizontally with an initial speed of 700 m/s. Assuming air resistance can be neglected, approximately how long will the cannonball be in flight before it hits the ground?

<u>Answer:</u>

  Cannonball will be in flight before it hits the ground for 2.02 seconds

<u>Explanation:</u>

  Initial height from ground = 20 meter.

  We have equation of motion , s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2, s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

  In this the velocity of body in vertical direction = 0 m/s, acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2, we need to calculate time when s = 20 meter.

  Substituting

         20=0*t+\frac{1}{2} *9.8*t^2\\ \\ t = 2.02 seconds

  So it will take 2.02 seconds to reach ground.

You throw a glove straight upward to celebrate a victory. Its initial kinetic energy is K and it reaches a maximum height h. Wha
Rasek [7]

Answer:

K/2

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mechanical energy states that the sum of the kinetic and potential energies is a constant at any point.

At maximum height, the glove has purely potential energy but at the bottom, it has purely kinetic energy.

The potential energy at the top = kinetic energy at the bottom. The potential energy is given by

PE = mgh

At half height, this potential energy is

PE = \frac{1}{2}mgh

At this height, PE + KE = Constant = KE at bottom or PE at maximum height.

mgh = \frac{1}{2}mgh +KE

KE = \frac{1}{2}mgh = K/2

Bob is pulling a 30 kg filing cabinet with a force of 200 N , but the filing cabinet refuses to move. The coefficient of static
Arada [10]

Answer:

<em>Magnitude of the Frictional force is 200 N</em>

Explanation:

The frictional force is the force that tries to oppose relative motion between two surfaces that are contacting. The coefficient of static friction is the coefficient of friction of a body that is not moving.

Newton's third law of motion states that action and reaction forces are equal and opposite. So the frictional force felt on the filing cabinet will be equal to the applied force pulling the cabinet.

Frictional force = Force applied

Force applied  = 200 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the friction force on the filing cabinet is 200 N
