IF the toss was straight upward, then the kinetic energy it got
from the toss is the gravitational potential energy it has at the top,
where it stops rising and starts falling.
Potential energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (height)
= (0.15 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (20 m)
= 29.4 kg-m²/s² = 29.4 joules .
Explanation:
Solution,
- Mass(m)= 60 kg
- Force (F)= 20 N
- Acceleration (a)= ?
We know that,
- F=ma
- a=F/m
- a=20/60
- a=0.333 m/s²
So, her acceleration is 0.333 m/s².
