Answer:
vB = 15.4 m/s
Explanation:
Principle of conservation of energy:
Because there is no friction the mechanical energy is conserve
ΔE = 0
ΔE : mechanical energy change (J)
K : Kinetic energy (J)
U: Potential energy (J)
K = (1/2)mv²
U = m*g*h
Where :
m: mass (kg)
v : speed (m/s)
h : hight (m)
Ef - Ei = 0
(K+U)final - (K+U)initial =0
(K+U)final = (K+U)initial
((1/2)mv²+m*g*h)final = ((1/2)mv²+m*g*h)initial , We divided by m both sides of the equation:
((1/2)vB² + g*hB = (1/2 )vA²+ g*hA
(1/2) (vB)² + (9.8)*(14.7) = 0 + (9.8)(26.8 )
(1/2) (vB)² = (9.8)(26.8 ) - (9.8)*(14.7)
(vB)² = (2)(9.8)(26.8 - 14.7)
(vB)² = 237.16
vB = 15.4 m/s : speed of the cart at B
Answer:
865.08 m
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s
Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m
Horizontal distance (s) =?
Next, we shall determine the time taken for the cannon to get to the ground. This can be obtained as follow:
Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Time (t) =?
h = ½gt²
62 = ½ × 9.8 × t²
62 = 4.9 × t²
Divide both side by 4.9
t² = 62/4.9
Take the square root of both side.
t = √(62/4.9)
t = 3.56 s
Finally, we shall determine the horizontal distance travelled by the cannon ball as shown below:
Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s
Time (t) = 3.56 s
Horizontal distance (s) =?
s = ut
s = 243 × 3.56 s
s = 865.08 m
Thus, the cannon ball will impact the ground 865.08 m from the base of the cliff.
This equation will be balanced if the x is a 2 because there are two sodiums on the reactants sides so there must be two sodiums on the products side
Hope this helps
Gravitational potential energy can be calculated using the formula <span>PE = m × g × h, where g is the gravitational acceleration and is constant hence the energy is dependent directly to mass and the height of the object. Hence more PE is registered when the object is heavier and/or at greater initial height. </span>
