increasing the price of imported steel.
Answer:
Velocity = 4.33[m/s]
Explanation:
The total energy or mechanical energy is the sum of the potential energy plus the kinetic energy, as it is known the velocity and the height, we can determine the total energy.
![E_{M}=E_{p} + E_{k} \\E_{p} = potential energy [J]\\E_{k} = kinetic energy [J]\\where:\\E_{p} =m*g*h\\E_{p} = 4*9.81*0.5=19.62[J]\\E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} *4*(3)^{2} \\E_{k}=18[J]\\Therefore\\E_{M} =18+19.62\\E_{M}=37.62[J]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7BM%7D%3DE_%7Bp%7D%20%20%2B%20E_%7Bk%7D%20%5C%5CE_%7Bp%7D%20%3D%20potential%20energy%20%5BJ%5D%5C%5CE_%7Bk%7D%20%3D%20kinetic%20energy%20%5BJ%5D%5C%5Cwhere%3A%5C%5CE_%7Bp%7D%20%3Dm%2Ag%2Ah%5C%5CE_%7Bp%7D%20%3D%204%2A9.81%2A0.5%3D19.62%5BJ%5D%5C%5CE_%7Bk%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%2Am%2Av%5E%7B2%7D%20%20%5C%5CE_%7Bk%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%2A4%2A%283%29%5E%7B2%7D%20%5C%5CE_%7Bk%7D%3D18%5BJ%5D%5C%5CTherefore%5C%5CE_%7BM%7D%20%3D18%2B19.62%5C%5CE_%7BM%7D%3D37.62%5BJ%5D)
All this energy will become kinetic energy and we can find the velocity.
![37.62=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\v=\sqrt{\frac{37.62*2}{4} } \\v=4.33[m/s]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=37.62%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%2Am%2Av%5E%7B2%7D%20%5C%5Cv%3D%5Csqrt%7B%5Cfrac%7B37.62%2A2%7D%7B4%7D%20%7D%20%5C%5Cv%3D4.33%5Bm%2Fs%5D)
the engine won't start or it sputters when it should be running perfectly. if the gasoline is old and stale, it will have lost a portion of its volatility. the lighter components of the gasoline (remember, gasoline is a mixture of different hydrocarbons) have probably evaporated off or disappeared.
Vf = Final velocity.
Vi = initial velocity
a = acceleration.
t = time
Vf = Vi + at
Vf = 0 + (2 m/s^2)(3s)
Vf = 6 m/s south
