Answer:

Answer: D. Only R

Explanation:

The Principle Of Conservation Of Mechanical Energy

In the absence of friction, the total mechanical energy is conserved. That means that

Em=U+K is constant, being U the potential energy and K the kinetic energy.

At the top of the path (point Q), Joshua is at rest but his height is at a maximum. Thus his kinetic energy is zero.

At point P, Joshua is at the minimum level (potential energy zero) and his speed is at a maximum.

At point R, Joshua has some height and some speed which means he has both types of energy.

Answer: D. Only R

If the velocity of a long jumper during take-offat an angle of 30 degrees is 42 f/s, how fast is he moving forward (Vx) and how

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Vx= 11.0865(m/s)

Vy= 6.4008(m/s)

Explanation:

Taking into account that 1m is equal to 0.3048 ft, the takeoff speed in m / s will be:

V= 42(ft/s) × 0.3048(m/ft) = 12.8016(m/s)

The take-off angle is equal to 30 °, taking into account the Pythagorean theorem the velocity on the X axis will be:

Vx= 12.8016 (m/s) × cos(30°)= 11.0865(m/s)

And for the same theorem the speed on the Y axis will be:

Vy= 12.8016 (m/s) × sen(30°)= 6.4008(m/s)
