Answer: A,B, and E
Explanation: Just checked I got them right:)
EC_1 + EP_1 = EC2 + EP_2
EC_2 = 0
EC_2 = EP_1 - EP_2
EC_2 = mg(H_1 - H_2) = 0.20 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * (3.25 m - 1.5m) = 3.43 J
If this is about simple machines the answer is: Inclined plane
As long as it sits on the shelf, its potential energy
relative to the floor is . . .
Potential energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (height) =
(3 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (0.8m) = <u>23.52 joules</u> .
If it falls from the shelf and lands on the floor, then it has exactly that
same amount of energy when it hits the floor, only now the 23.52 joules
has changed to kinetic energy.
Kinetic energy = (1/2) x (mass) x (speed)²
23.52 joules = (1/2) x (3 kg) x (speed)²
Divide each side by 1.5 kg : 23.52 m²/s² = speed²
Take the square root of each side: speed = √(23.52 m²/s²) = <em>4.85 m/s </em> (rounded)
Answer:
Draw the vector triangle (head to tail)
Let 8 be adjacent and 4 the opposite side
tan theta = 4 / 8 = .5
theta = 26.6 deg
