If the resistance of the Air is ignored, we can use the theory given by Galileo in which he warned that the thermal velocity of a body in free fall was given by
Where
g = Gravitational acceleration
t = time
As we can see the speed of objects in free fall is indifferent to the position that is launched (as long as the resistance of the air is ignored) or its mass.
Both bodies will end with the same thermal speed.
Answer:
1472.98 m
Explanation:
Data provided:
Speed of circular looping, v = 340 m/s
Acceleration, a = 8g
here,
g is the acceleration due to the gravity = 9.81 m/s²
Now,
the centripetal acceleration is given as,
r is the radius of the loop
on substituting the respective values, we get
or
r = 1472.98 m
Given parameters:
Mass of object = 6.7kg
Velocity = 8m/s
Unknown parameter:
Kinetic energy = ?
Energy is defined as the ability to do work. There are two forms of energy;
Kinetic and potential energy.
Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of a body. Whereas, potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body usually at rest.
Kinetic energy is mathematically expressed as;
Kinetic energy =
where m is the mass of the body
v is the velocity of the body
Since we have been given both mass and velocity, input the parameter to solve for the unknown;
Kinetic energy = x 6.7 x 8² = 214.4J
So the kinetic energy of the body is 214.4J
