The  final kinetic energy of the ball is 2.45 J

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of energy.

In absence of frictional effect, the mechanical energy of the apple must be conserved during the fall. So we can write:

U_i +K_i = U_f + K_f

where :

U_i is the initial potential energy, at the top

K_i is the initial kinetic energy, at the top

U_f is the final potential energy, at the bottom

K_f is the final kinetic energy, at the bottom

By explicing the potential energy, we can rewrite the equation as:

mgh_i + K_i = mgh_f + K_f

where:

m = 0.5 kg is the mass of the apple

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

h_i = 2 m is the initial height

h_f=1.50 m is the final height

The initial kinetic energy is zero, since the ball starts from rest:

K_i = 0

Therefore we can solve the equation for K_f, the final kinetic energy of the ball:

K_f = mg(h_i-h_f)=(0.5)(9.8)(2-1.50)=2.45 J

The driver of a 1000 kg car traveling at a speed of 16.7 m/s applies the brakes. If the brakes provide a force of - 8000 N to st
RSB [31]

Answer:

Given:

m=1000kg

u= 16.7m/s

v=0m/s

F=8000N

Required:

s=?

Solution:

F=m × a

8000N=1000kg × a

a=8m/s^2

Since it decelerate a= -8m/s^2

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

s=v^2 - u^2 / 2a

s= 0 - (16.7m/s)^2 / 2 × -8m/s^2

s= -278.89/-16

s= 17.43m

The car travels approximately 17.43m before it stops

A rock is dropped from a height of 3,245 m. If we ignore air resistance, how fast will it be travelling after it falls for 3.4 s
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

<u>954.4m/s</u>

Explanation:

For a free falling object,it has constant acceleration and a changing velocity.

By using the velocity-time formula, the velocity can be obtained.

The height the rock travelled is the distance.

From,

Velocity (v) = Distance (d) / Time(t)

v = 3245m/3.4s

v = <u>954.4m/s</u>

That js the answer I got. Hope it's right.
