Answer:
(A) -2940 J
(B) 392 J
(C) 212.33 N
Explanation:
mass of bear (m) = 25 kg
height of the pole (h) = 12 m
speed (v) = 5.6 m/s
acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s
(A) change in gravitational potential energy (ΔU) = mg(height at the bottom- height at the top)
height at the bottom = 0
= 25 x 9.8 x (0-12) = -2940 J
(B) kinetic energy of the Bear (KE) =
= = 392 J
(C) average frictional force =
- change in KE (ΔKE) = initial KE - final KE
- ΔKE =
-
- when the Bear reaches the bottom of the pole, the final velocity (Vf) is 0, therefore the change in kinetic energy becomes ΔKE =
- 0 = 392 J
\frac{-(ΔKE+ΔU)}{h}[/tex] =
= = 212.33 N
