Answer:

The well is 23.3 m

Explanation:

As the bucket is lifted out of the well, energy in the man is being transferred to the bucket as gravitational potential energy.

Work done against gravity =  mass * height * acceleration due to to gravity

W  =  mgh

5 920 J = 25.9 kg * h * 9.8 m/s²

h = 23.3 m

Jason throws a ball horizontally off a 300 meter cliff at 15.0 m/s. How far will it travel before it hits the
jasenka [17]

Answer:

117,30m

Explanation:

I think the situation here is a horizontal projection to the ground. So in order to find the distance the formula = Ut, where U is the initial speed and t is the Time of flight. To get the time of flight in this case =√2h/g where h is the height and g is gravity. so to get the time = √2×300÷9.81 =7.821 .so range =ut which is equal to the time multiplied by 15m/s =117.30m

kupik [55]

Answer:

   y = - (½ g / v₀²)   x²

Explanation:

This is a projectile launch exercise where there is no acceleration on the x-axis so

        x = v₀ₓ t

        v₀ₓ = v₀ cos tea

        y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t2

        v_{oy} = v₀ sin θ

as the sphere is thrown horizontally, the angle is tea = 0º, so the initial velocity remains

          v₀ₓ = v₀

           v_{oy} = 0

we substitute in our equations

          x = v₀ t

          y = - ½ g t²

we eliminate the time from these equations, we substitute the first in the second

      y = - ½ g (x / v₀)²

      y = - (½ g / v₀²)   x²

this is the equation of a parabola
