A ball thrown horizontally from an apartment balcony hits the ground in 5 seconds. If the horizontal velocity of the ball is dou

Since the horizontal velocity is what is doubled, that does not affect the fall of the ball, thus the fall is still 5 seconds long.

A 2.0-kg projectile is fired with initial velocity components v0x = 30 m/s and v0y = 40 m/s from a point on the Earth's surface.
EleoNora [17]

(a) The kinetic energy of the projectile when it reaches the highest point in its trajectory is 900 J.

(b) The work done  in firing the projectile is 2,500 J.

<h3>Kinetic energy of the projectile at maximum height</h3>

The kinetic energy of the projectile when it reaches the highest point in its trajectory is calculated as follows;

K.E = ¹/₂mv₀ₓ²

where;

  • m is mass of the projectile
  • v₀ₓ is the initial horizontal component of the velocity at maximum height

<u>Note:</u> At maximum height the final vertical velocity is zero and the final horizontal velocity is equal to the initial horizontal velocity.

K.E = (0.5)(2)(30²)

K.E = 900 J

<h3>Work done in firing the projectile</h3>

Based on the principle of conservation of energy, the work done in firing the projectile is equal to the initial kinetic energy of the projectile.

W = K.E(i) = ¹/₂mv²

where;

  • v is the resultant velocity

v = √(30² + 40²)

v = 50 m/s

W = (0.5)(2)(50²)

W = 2,500 J

Thus, the kinetic energy of the projectile when it reaches the highest point in its trajectory is 900 J.

The work done  in firing the projectile is 2,500 J.

What is the kinetic energy of a 120-cm thin uniform rod with a mass of 450 g that is rotating about its center at 3.60 rad/s?
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

1.05 J.

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy: This is the energy possessed by a body due to its motion. The S.I unit of kinetic energy is Joules (J). The formula of kinetic energy is given as

Ek = 1/2mv²................. Equation 1

Where Ek = kinetic energy, m = mass of the uniform rod, v = liner velocity of the rod.

But,

v = αr .......................... Equation 2

Where α = angular velocity of the rod, r = radius of the circle.

Given: α = 3.6 red/s, r = 120/2 = 60 cm = 0.6 m.

Substitute into equation 2

v = 3.6(0.6)

v = 2.16 m/s.

Also given: m = 450 g = 0.45 kg.

Substitute into equation 1

Ek = 1/2(0.45)(2.16²)

Ek = 1.05 J.
