Answer:
The kinetic energy is: 50[J]
Explanation:
The ball is having a potential energy of 100 [J], therefore
PE = [J]
The elevation is 10 [m], and at this point the ball is having only potential energy, the kinetic energy is zero.
In the moment when the ball starts to fall, it will lose potential energy and the potential energy will be transforme in kinetic energy.
When the elevation is 5 [m], we have a potential energy of
This energy is equal to the kinetic energy, therefore
Ke= 50 [J]
Answer:
A. True
Explanation:
When a stone is thrown straight-up, it has an initial velocity which decreases gradually as the stone move to maximum height due to constant acceleration due to gravity acting downward on the stone, at the maximum height the final velocity of the stone is zero. As the stone descends the velocity starts to increase and becomes maximum before it hits the ground.
Height of the motion is given by;
g is acceleration due to gravity which is constant
H is height traveled
u is the speed of throw, which determines the value of height traveled.
Therefore, when the stone is caught at the same height from which it was thrown in the absence of air resistance, the speed of the stone when thrown will be equal to the speed when caught.
this process is called parellelogram method of resolving vectors.
