The law of conservation of energy<span>, a fundamental concept of physics, states that the total amount of </span>energy<span> remains constant in an isolated system. It implies that </span>energy<span> can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be change from one form to another.</span>
Answer:
(D) energy from one place to another
Answer:
A. The bomb will take <em>17.5 seconds </em>to hit the ground
B. The bomb will land <em>12040 meters </em>on the ground ahead from where they released it
Explanation:
Maverick and Goose are flying at an initial height of
, and their speed is v=688 m/s
When they release the bomb, it will initially have the same height and speed as the plane. Then it will describe a free fall horizontal movement
The equation for the height y with respect to ground in a horizontal movement (no friction) is
[1]
With g equal to the acceleration of gravity of our planet and t the time measured with respect to the moment the bomb was released
The height will be zero when the bomb lands on ground, so if we set y=0 we can find the flight time
The range (horizontal displacement) of the bomb x is
[2]
Since the bomb won't have any friction, its horizontal component of the speed won't change. We need to find t from the equation [1] and replace it in equation [2]:
Setting y=0 and isolating t we get

Since we have 


Replacing in [2]


A. The bomb will take 17.5 seconds to hit the ground
B. The bomb will land 12040 meters on the ground ahead from where they released it
The first thing you should know for this case is that work is defined as the product of force by the distance traveled in the direction of force.
We have then:
W = Fd
The distance varies, so we must integrate:
from 0 to 20:
W = ∫F (x) dx
W = ∫32xdx
W = 32∫xdx
W = 32 (x ^ 2/2) = (16) (20 ^ 2) = 6400 ft * lbs
answer:
6400 ft * lbs is work done pulling the rope up 20 ft
