The cheetah's speed is 100x and The gazelle's speed is 80x + 70. Set the two equations equal to each other: 100x = 80x +70 (then subtract 80x from both sides). 20x = 70 (then divide by 20). X =3.5. The cheetah catches the gazelle after 3.5

An object moving with a speed or 67m/s and has kinetic energy of 500 J what is the mass of the object
saveliy_v [14]
To solve this equation, simply plug the values into the equation for calculating kinetic energy.

KE = 1/2mv^2
500 = 1/2(m)(67^2)
500 =2244.5m
m = 500/2244.5 = 0.222 kg.

Answer:

86.4 m  horizontal from landing spot

Explanation:

Find out how long before the ball hits the ground

 vertical speed  of ball = -2  m/s     gravity = - 9.81 m/s^2

find time to hit ground from 100 m  

          ( height will be<u> zero</u> when it hits the ground)

<u>0 </u>=  100  - 2 t  - 1/2 ( 9.81) t^2

        use Quadratic Formula to find t = 4.32 seconds

              horizontal speed of ball = 20 m/s  

in 4.32 seconds it will travel horizontally   20  m/s * 4.32 s = 86.4 m
