The answer is destructive interference. You have this for both C and D. I suspect one of C or D is supposed to be constructive interference... But destructive interference is the answer
G.P.E = mgh
Weight = mg = 200N
So G.P.E = 200 * 2 = 400 Joules
There is half the force that there was before it was split in half
(a) The ball’s maximum speed over the net is v(max) = √2gh.
(b) The maximum speed of the horizontally moving ball clearing the net is about 27 m/s.
(c) Speed of the ball is independent of its mass.
<h3>
Time of motion of the ball</h3>
The time of motion of the ball is calculated as follows;
h = vt + ¹/₂gt²
1 = 0 + ¹/₂(9.8)t²
1 = 4.9t²
t² = 1/4.9
t² = 0.204
t = 0.452 s
<h3>Horizontal speed of the ball</h3>
The horizontal speed of the ball is calculated as follows;
X = vt
v = X/t
v = (12 m)/(0.452)
v = 26.6 m/s ≈ 27 m/s (proved)
<h3>Conservation of energy</h3>
P.E = K.E
mgh = ¹/₂mv²
gh = ¹/₂v²
2gh = v²
√2gh = v(max)
Speed of the ball is independent of its mass.
