On Earth, a cannonball with a mass of 20 kg would weigh 196 Newtons.
With the formula F=mg, where F is the weight in Newtons, m is the mass, and g is the acceleration due to gravity on the Earth which is 9.8m/s^2.
F=20kg x 9.8m/s^2= 196 Newtons
BUT on the moon, acceleration due to gravity is 1.6 m/s^2,
so F=mg=20kgx1.6m/s^2= 32 N
When Alana moving 19km/h, a stationary object will be perceived by her as moving toward her with 19km/h velocity. If the object is not stationary(velocity isn't zero), the speed will increase by the object velocity.
the relative speed of the tennis ball=
the speed of Alana + true speed of the tennis ball
19km/h+ 11km/h= 30km/h
Well it seems like this problem gives you what you need. You said the car was going 4m/s and then accelerated to 60m/s... so 4m/s would be your answer for the initial velocity
Answer:
33.516 kJ
Explanation:
Potential energy is given by:
PE = mgh
Where m is the mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height. In this case:
PE = 38kg x 9.8m/s^2 x 90m = 33516 kg m^2/s^2 = 33516 J = 33.516 kJ
