You throw a 20-N rock vertically into the air from ground level. You observe that when it is a height 14.8m above the ground, it

is traveling at a speed of 25.0 m/s upward.
A) Use the work-energy theorem to find its speed just as it left the ground. What is it?
B) Use the work-energy theorem to find its maximum height. What is it?

Answer:

30.25 m/s

46.68 m

Explanation:

Work Energy theorem states that

W = ½mv2² - ½mv1²

W = ½m(v2² - v1²)

Net work done by the force = -mgd

Net work done = -m * 9.8 * 14.8

Net work done = -145m

Using the work energy theorem

-145m = ½m(v2² - v1²)

-145m = ½ * m(25² - v1²)

-290m = 625m - v1²m

v1² = 625 + 290

v1² = 915

v1 = √915 = 30.25 m/s

B

-mgd = ½m(v2² - v1²), where v2 = 0, so

-mgd = ½mv1²

Making d the subject of the formula, we have

d = -½mv1²/mg

d = v1²/2g

d = 915/ 2 * 9.8

d = 915 / 19.6

d = 46.68 m

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Increasing until terminal velocity is reached

Explanation:

Provided the scream is a constant pitch at the source, Doppler effect will make the pitch increase as the velocity of the source towards the listener increases.

how would the velocity of the book change if the applied force were equal to the sliding friction force
Inessa [10]
Yes, Sliding friction opposes the movement of the book, slowing it down.sliding That's the 'kinetic' kind.. According to Newton's second law, F=ma. That is, the bear's acceleration should be proportional to the total force acting on the bear. As the bear's velocity is constant, its acceleration is zero. Therefore, the total Force acting on the bear is zero. Thus, the friction has to be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the bear's weight. As W=mg, we get that its weight is  <span>9.8*400=3,920 Newton. Thus, the friction acting on the bear is 3,920 Newton</span>
