Answer : 41.2 J

Explanation

The energy that the ball had instantaneously prior to being dropped was Potential Energy (EP) only and gravitational potential energy is calculated as Ep = mgh = (2.80)(9.81)(4.50) = 123.606 Joules.

Because no outside energy was added and no work was done, the energy instantaneously prior to being dropped is equal to the energy when the mass is 3 m above the ground only at that point, the energy consists of two parts, gravitational Potential Energy (EP) and Kinetic Energy (EK). So, considering the point just prior to the drop as point 1 and the point 3 m above the ground as point 2, we can say:
EP1 = EP2 + EK2
so EK2 = EP1 - EP2
and EP2 = (2.80)(9.81)(3.00) = 82.404
So EK2 = 123.606 - 82.404 = 41.2 Joules

Answer:

PE = 82.32J

Explanation:

PE = m*g*h

PE = 2.80kg*9.8m/s²*3m

PE = 82.32J

Time taken by the rubber-soled shoes to reduce a person's potential from 3.00×10³ V to 100V is 3.91s

The initial potential difference $\Delta V_o$ is related to the final potential difference $\Delta V$ by

$\Delta V=\Delta V_{o} e^{-t / \tau}$

Our target is to find t, so we rearrange equation (1) for t to be

$\Delta V=\Delta V_{o} e^{-t / RC}\\ \ln \left ( \frac{\Delta V}{\Delta V_{o}} \right ) = \frac{-t}{RC}\\ t= -RC \ln \left ( \frac{\Delta V}{\Delta V_{o}} \right ) \tag{2}$

The body has a capacitance 150 pF while the foot has a capacitance 80 pF and both are in parallel connection. So, the equivalent capacitance is

$C= 150 \mathrm{~pF} + 80 \mathrm{~pF} = 230 \mathrm{~pF}$

The shoes of the rubber-soled has resistance $R=5000 \mathrm{~M\Omega}$ . Plug the values for $\Delta V, \Delta V_o$ and C into equation (2) to get the time t.

$t&= -RC \ln \left ( \frac{\Delta V}{\Delta V_{o}} \right ) \\ &= -( 5000 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{~\Omega})(230 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{~F}) \ln \left ( \frac{100\mathrm{~V}}{3000 \mathrm{~V}} \right ) \\ &= {3.91 \mathrm{~s}}$
