The concept required to solve this problem is associated with potential energy. Recall that potential energy is defined as the product between mass, gravity, and change in height. Mathematically it can be described as

$U = mg\Delta h$

Here,

$\Delta h$ = Change in height

m = mass of super heroine

g = Acceleration due to gravity

The change in height will be,

$\Delta h = h_f - h_i$

The final position of the heroin is below the ground level,

$h_f = -16.1m$

The initial height will be the zero point of our system of reference,

$\Delta h = -16.1m-0m$

$\Delta h = -16.1m$

Replacing all this values we have,

$U = mg\Delta h$

$U = (68.1kg)(9.8m/s^2)(-16.1m)$

$U = -10744.81J$

Since the final position of the heroine is located below the ground, there will net loss of gravitational potential energy of 10744.81J

What effect does the vertical acceleration have on the horizontal velocity of the projectile?

KengaRu [80]

Answer:
None, if air resistance is ignored.

Explanation:
At any instant, the projectile has vertical and horizontal components of velocity.
Vertical acceleration due to gravity affects the vertical velocity by accelerating the object toward the center of the earth, and by decreasing the upward vertical velocity..
The horizontal component of velocity makes the object travel horizontally as long as the projectile is airborne.
Thsi discussion assumes that air resistance is ignored.

How do I convert 14.8 cm into MEters?

stellarik [79]

Multiply it by a fraction equal to ' 1 ', like this:

(14.8 cm) x (1 meter/100 cm) = 14.8/100 = 0.148 meter
