Answer:
hmax = 1/2 · v²/g
Explanation:
Hi there!
Due to the conservation of energy and since there is no dissipative force (like friction) all the kinetic energy (KE) of the ball has to be converted into gravitational potential energy (PE) when the ball comes to stop.
KE = PE
Where KE is the initial kinetic energy and PE is the final potential energy.
The kinetic energy of the ball is calculated as follows:
KE = 1/2 · m · v²
Where:
m = mass of the ball
v = velocity.
The potential energy is calculated as follows:
PE = m · g · h
Where:
m = mass of the ball.
g = acceleration due to gravity (known value: 9.81 m/s²).
h = height.
At the maximum height, the potential energy is equal to the initial kinetic energy because the energy is conserved, i.e, all the kinetic energy was converted into potential energy (there was no energy dissipation as heat because there was no friction). Then:
PE = KE
m · g · hmax = 1/2 · m · v²
Solving for hmax:
hmax = 1/2 · v² / g
Answer:
500km
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Speed = 200km/hr
Time taken = 2.5hrs
Unknown:
Distance = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we use the speed, time and distance equation.
Therefore;
Distance = Speed x time
So;
Distance = 200 x 2.5 = 500km
Question not making a sence, Clarify what you wana ask
Answer:
shown below
Explanation:
2 x 10⁷ as a number is 20,000,000
20,000,000 - 10 = 19,999,990
It went 19,999,990 m/h
in km/h:
19,999,990 / 1000 = 19,999.99 km/h
in km/s
19,999,990 / 3,600,000 = ~5.56 km/s
in m/s
19,999,990 / 3600 = ~5555.56 m/s
