Answer:
(a)0.0675 J
(b)0.0675 J
(c)0.0675 J
(d)0.0675 J
(e)-0.0675 J
(f)0.459 m
Explanation:
15g = 0.015 kg
(a) Kinetic energy as it leaves the hand
(b) By the law of energy conservation, the work done by gravitational energy as it rises to its peak is the same as the kinetic energy as the ball leave the hand, which is 0.0675 J
(c) The change in potential energy would also be the same as 0.0675J in accordance with conservation law of energy.
(d) The gravitational energy at peak point would also be the same as 0.0675J
(e) In this case as the reference point is reversed, we would have to negate the original potential energy. So the potential energy as the ball leaves hand is -0.0675J
(f) Since at the maximum height the ball has potential energy of 0.0675J. This means:
mgh = 0.0675
0.015*9.81h = 0.0675
h = 0.459 m
The ball would reach a maximum height of 0.459 m
As we know by work energy theorem
total work done = change in kinetic energy
so here we can say that wok done on the box will be equal to the change in kinetic energy of the system
initial the box is at rest at position x = x1
so initial kinetic energy will be ZERO
at final position x = x2 final kinetic energy is given as
now work done is given as
so we can say
so above is the work done on the box to slide it from x1 to x2
