Answer:
14.2 m
Explanation:
Using conservation of energy:
PE at top = KE at bottom
mgh = ½ mv²
h = v² / (2g)
h = (16.7 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s²)
h = 14.2 m
Using kinematics:
Given:
v₀ = 16.7 m/s
v = 0 m/s
a = -9.8 m/s²
Find: Δy
v² = v₀² + 2aΔy
(0 m/s)² = (16.7 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) Δy
Δy = 14.2 m
The hardest part of the job is to find the right formula to use, and write it down. You've already done that ! The rest is just turning the crank until an answer falls out.
You wrote. E = m g h.
Beautiful.
Now divide each side by (g h), and you'll have the formula for mass:
m = E / (g h).
You know all the numbers on the right side. Just pluggum in, do the arithmetic, and you'll have the mass.
Answer: 5.5m/s
Explanation:
vf=vi+at
vf= 4.0m/s + (0.50m/s^2)(3.0s)
Answer:
a. 12 m/s² down
Explanation:
Acceleration has units of length per time squared. Acceleration is a vector, so it also has a direction.
