A student at another university repeats the experiment you did in lab. Her target ball is 0.860 m above the floor when it is in

the target holder and the steel ball she uses has a mass of 0.0120 kg. She finds that the target ball travels a distance of 1.50 m after it is struck. Assume g = 9.80 m/s2. What is the kinetic energy (in joules) of the target ball just after it is struck?

Answer:

K = 0.076 J

Explanation:

The height of the target, h = 0.860  m

The mass of the steel ball, m = 0.0120 kg

Distance moved, d = 1.50 m

We need to find the kinetic energy (in joules) of the target ball just after it is struck. Let t is the time taken by the ball to reach the ground.

h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2h}{g}}

Put all the values,

t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 0.860 }{9.8}} \\\\=0.418\ s

The velocity of the ball is :

v=\dfrac{1.5}{0.418}\\\\= $$3.58\ m/s

The kinetic energy of the ball is :

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.0120\times 3.58^2\\\\=0.076\ J

So, the required kinetic energy is 0.076 J.

Gravity is the force that pulls you down.
(This is kind of a duh! question ... How do we know
which way is "down" ?  We feel gravity, and we call
that the "down" direction.)

Magnetic force holds things to fridge doors.

Contact forces need to touch something in order to
exert their force.
Example:  Gravity is NOT a contact force.

I don't know about "rubbing things away".
This might be a description of friction, but if so,
it's not a good one.

Buoyant force is what keeps floating things floating.

Air resistance slows things down when they move in air.
