Answer:
Ep = 117600 J
Explanation:
Data:
- Mass (m) = 600 kg
- Height (h) = 20 m
- Gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
- Potential Energy (Ep) = ?
Use formula:
Replace:
- Ep = 600 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 20 m
Multiply operations, and units:
What is the potential energy?
The potential energy is <u>117600 Joules.</u>
The muscular system brings strength and endurance to the body. It helps us perform everyday activities. As well as soaks up water to keep us hydrated longer.
I assume that the ball is stationary (v=0) at point B, so its total energy is just potential energy, and it is equal to 7.35 J.
At point A, all this energy has converted into kinetic energy, which is:

And since K=7.35 J, we can find the velocity, v:
Constant velocity means the netto force = 0, therefore F(gravity) = F(astronaut).
175N divided by 87,5kg = 2.00kg/N
