Answer:

The K.E of the bowling ball right before it hits the ground, K.E = 2450 J            

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the bowling ball, m = 10 kg

The height of the building, h = 25 m

The total mechanical energy of the body is given by,

                                     E = P.E + K.E

At height 'h' the P.E is maximum and the K.E is zero,

According to the law of conservation of energy, the K.E at the ground before hitting the ground is equal to the P.E at 'h'

Therefore, P.E at 'h'

                                  P.E = mgh

                                         = 10 x 9.8 x 25

                                         =  2450 J

Hence, the K.E of the bowling ball right before it hits the ground, K.E = 2450 J

The quantity work has to do with a force causing a displacement. Work has nothing to do with the amount of time that this force acts to cause the displacement. Sometimes, the work is done very quickly and other times the work is done rather slowly. For example, a rock climber takes an abnormally long time to elevate her body up a few meters along the side of a cliff. On the other hand, a trail hiker (who selects the easier path up the mountain) might elevate her body a few meters in a short amount of time. The two people might do the same amount of work, yet the hiker does the work in considerably less time than the rock climber. The quantity that has to do with the rate at which a certain amount of work is done is known as the power. The hiker has a greater power rating than the rock climber.

Power is the rate at which work is done. It is the work/time ratio. Mathematically, it is computed using the following equation.


Power = Work / time


or


P = W / t
