The potential energy is most often referred to as the "energy at rest" and is dependent on the elevation of an object. This can be calculated through the equation,
E = mgh
where E is the potential energy, m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height. In this item, we are not given with the mass of the cart so we assume it to be m. The force is therefore,
E = m(9.8 m/s²)(0.5 m) = 4.9m
Hence, the potential energy is equal to 4.9m.
just analyze it in this way:
20cos30*=10( radical 3 )
20sin30*=10
False it never decreases, it increases or remain the same.
Answer:
Explanation:
The cannonball goes a horizontal distance of 275 m . It travels a vertical distance of 100 m
Time taken to cover vertical distance = t ,
Initial velocity u = 0
distance s = 100 m
acceleration a = 9.8 m /s²
s = ut + 1/2 g t²
100 = .5 x 9.8 x t²
t = 4.51 s
During this time it travels horizontally also uniformly so
horizontal velocity Vx = horizontal displacement / time
= 275 / 4.51 = 60.97 m /s
Vertical velocity Vy
Vy = u + gt
= 0 + 9.8 x 4.51
= 44.2 m /s
Resultant velocity
V = √ ( 44.2² + 60.97² )
= √ ( 1953.64 + 3717.34 )
= 75.3 m /s
Angle with horizontal Ф
TanФ = Vy / Vx
= 44.2 / 60.97
= .725
Ф = 36⁰ .
