Work can be defined as the energy transferred from a body to its sorroundings, the energy spent to move a body, or the energy you need to alter a charged particle, so no energy, no work; thus, the statement is true.

You toss a ball straight up with an initial speed of 30m/s. How high does it go, and how long is it in the air (neglecting air r

Brut [27]

Explanation:

Given that,

A ball is tossed straight up with an initial speed of 30 m/s

We need to find the height it will go and the time it takes in the air.

At its maximum height, its final speed, v = 0 and it will move under the action of gravity. Using equation of motion :

v = u +at

Here, a = -g

v = u -gt

i.e. u = gt

$t=\dfrac{u}{g}\\\\t=\dfrac{30\ m/s}{9.8\ m/s^2}\\\\t=3.06\ s$

So, the time for upward motion is 3.06 seconds. It means that it will in air for 3.06×2 = 6.12 seconds

Let d is the maximum distance covered by it.

$d=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

Putting all values

$d=30(3.06)-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times (3.06)^2\\\\d=45.91\ m$

Hence, it will go to a height of 45.91 m and it will in the air for 6.12 seconds.

As stated in the statement, we will apply energy conservation to solve this problem.

From this concept we know that the kinetic energy gained is equivalent to the potential energy lost and vice versa. Mathematically said equilibrium can be expressed as

$\Delta KE = \Delta PE$
