Answer:

a) h=25.7\ m

b) v'=21.8733\ m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

  • weight of the stone, w=5.3\ N
  • initial velocity of vertical projection, u=23\ m.s^{-1}
  • air drag acting opposite to the motion of the stone, D=0.266\ N

The mass of the stone:

m=\frac{w}{g}

m=\frac{5.3}{9.8}

m=0.5408\ kg

Now the acceleration of the stone opposite of the motion:

D=m.d

where:

d = deceleration

0.266=0.5408\times d

d=0.4918\ m.s^{-2}

<u>In course of going up the net acceleration on the stone will be:</u>

g'=g+d

g'=9.8+0.4918

g'=10.2918\ m.s^{-2}

a)

Now using the equation of motion:

v^2=u^2-2 g'.h

where:

v= final velocity when the stone reaches at the top of the projectile = 0

h = height attained by the stone before starting to fall down

0^2=23^2-2\times 10.2918\times h

h=25.7\ m

b)

during the course of descend from the top height of the projectile:

initial velocity, v=0\ m.s^{-1}

The acceleration will be:

g"=g-d

g"=9.8-0.4918

g"=9.3082\ m.s^{-2}

here the gravity still acts downwards but the drag acceleration acts in the direction opposite to the motion of the stone, now the stone is falling down hence the drag  acts upwards.

Using equation of  motion:

v'^2=v^2+2g".h (+ve acceleration because it acts in the direction of motion)

v'^2=0^2+2\times 9.3082\times 25.7

v'=21.8733\ m.s^{-1}

What energy also increases as mass increases
Kipish [7]

Several kinds of energy do:

-- More mass at the same height has more potential energy.

-- More mass at the same speed has more kinetic energy.

-- More mass of cooked spinach has more food energy.

-- More mass of the same substance at the same temperature
   has more heat energy.

14. A 8 kilogram rock is dropped off the top of a 25 meter tall building. What is the kinetic
mestny [16]

Answer:2000j

Explanation:

Law of conservation of energy energy State that in a close system energy can neither be created nor destroy but can be transformed from one form to another.

At the top of the height, the rock possessed only potential energy

PE=mass×g×height

PE =8×10×25

PE=2000j

The kinetic energy at the bottom of the building will also be 2000j since energy cannot be created or destroyed,and potential energy of 2000j have been converted to kinetic energy at the bottom of the building
