Answer:
h = 3.3 m (Look at the explanation below, please)
Explanation:
This question has to do with kinetic and potential energy. At the beginning (time of launch), there is no potential energy- we assume it starts from the ground. There, is, however, kinetic energy
Kinetic energy = m
Plug in the numbers = (4.0)(
)
Solve = 2(64) = 128 J
Now, since we know that the mechanical energy of a system always remains constant in the absence of outside forces (there is no outside force here), we can deduce that the kinetic energy at the bottom is equal to the potential energy at the top. Look at the diagram I have attached.
Potential energy = mgh = (4.0)(9.8)(h) = 39.2(h)
Kinetic energy = Potential Energy
128 J = 39.2h
h = 3.26 m
h= 3.3 m (because of significant figures)
Answer:
<em>11.06m/s²</em>
Explanation:
According to Newtons second law of motion
Given
Mass m = 17kg
Fm = 208N
theta = 36 degrees
g = 9.8m/s²
a is the acceleration
Substitute
208 - 0.148(17)(9.8)cos 36 = 17a
208 - 24.6568cos36 = 17a
208 - 19.9478 = 17a
188.05 = 17a
a = 188.05/17
a = 11.06m/s²
<em>Hence the the magnitude of the resulting acceleration is 11.06m/s²</em>
