Speed can be thought of as the rate at which an object covers distance. ... Speed has the dimensions of distance divided by time. The SI unit of speed is the metre per second, but the most common unit of speed in everyday usage is the kilometre per hour or, in the US and the UK, miles per hour........?

Speed is the rate at which someone or something is able to move or operate. Moreover, the SI unit of speed is the metre per second, but the most common unit of speed in everyday usage is the kilometre per hour or, in the US and the UK, miles per hour.

A mass of 2000 kg is raised 2.0 m in 10 seconds. What is the potential energy of the mass at this height?
Kaylis [27]
Gravitational potential energy is defined as the amount of energy an object possesses at a given height above the Earth's surface. The equation for gravitational energy is E = mgh. Here, m is the mass of the object, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height above the Earth's surface. Hence, the answer is E = 2000kg x 9.81m/s^2 x 2m = 39240 Joules.

A brick is dropped (zero initial speed) from the roof of a building. The brick strikes the ground in 1.90 s. You may ignore air
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer: Height of building = 17.69m, velocity of brick = 18.6m/s

Explanation: From the question, the body has a zero initial speed, thus initial velocity (u) all through the motion is zero.

By ignoring air resistance makes it a free fall motion thus making it to accelerate constantly with a value of a = 9.8m/s^{2}.

Time taken to fall = 1.90s

a)

thus the height of the building is calculated using the formulae below

H = ut + \frac{1}{2} gt^{2}

but u = 0 , hence

H = \frac{1}{2} gt^{2}

H = \frac{1}{2} *9.8* 1.9^{2} \\\\H = 17.69m

b)

to get the value of velocity (v) as the brick hits the ground, we use the formulae below

v^{2} = u^{2} + 2aH

but u= 0, hence

v^{2} = 2gH\\

v^{2} = 2 * 9.8 * 17.69\\v = \sqrt{2 *9.8* 17.69} \\v = 18.62m/s
