Answer:
51.2 J, 86.2 J, 137.4 J
Explanation:
The kinetic energy of the ball is given by:
where
m = 0.40 kg is its mass
v = 16 m/s is its speed
Substituting,
The potential energy of the ball is given by
where
m = 0.40 kg
is the acceleration of gravity
h = 22 m is the heigth of the cliff
Substituting,
Finally, the total mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic energy and the potential energy:
Answer:
After 1 sec = 4.9 m
After 2 sec = 19.6 m
After 3 sec = 44.1 m
After 4 sec = 78.4 m
After 5 sec = 122.5 m
Explanation:
After 1 sec:
<em>u=0m/s t=1 s a=9.8m/s²</em>
s = ut + (1/2)at²
=0(1) + (1/2)(9.8)(1²) = 4.9m
After 2 sec:
<em>u=0m/s t=2 s a=9.8m/s²</em>
s = ut + (1/2)at²
=0(2) + (1/2)(9.8)(2²) = 19.6m
After 3 sec:
<em>u=0m/s t=3 s a=9.8m/s²</em>
s = ut + (1/2)at²
=0(3) + (1/2)(9.8)(3²) = 44.1m
After 4 sec:
<em>u=0m/s t=4 s a=9.8m/s²</em>
s = ut + (1/2)at²
=0(4) + (1/2)(9.8)(4²) = 78.4m
After 5 sec:
<em>u=0m/s t=5 s a=9.8m/s²</em>
s = ut + (1/2)at²
=0(5) + (1/2)(9.8)(5²) = 122.5m
No, the rate of gravity remains constant
