Answer:
Velocity = 4.33[m/s]
Explanation:
The total energy or mechanical energy is the sum of the potential energy plus the kinetic energy, as it is known the velocity and the height, we can determine the total energy.
![E_{M}=E_{p} + E_{k} \\E_{p} = potential energy [J]\\E_{k} = kinetic energy [J]\\where:\\E_{p} =m*g*h\\E_{p} = 4*9.81*0.5=19.62[J]\\E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} *4*(3)^{2} \\E_{k}=18[J]\\Therefore\\E_{M} =18+19.62\\E_{M}=37.62[J]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7BM%7D%3DE_%7Bp%7D%20%20%2B%20E_%7Bk%7D%20%5C%5CE_%7Bp%7D%20%3D%20potential%20energy%20%5BJ%5D%5C%5CE_%7Bk%7D%20%3D%20kinetic%20energy%20%5BJ%5D%5C%5Cwhere%3A%5C%5CE_%7Bp%7D%20%3Dm%2Ag%2Ah%5C%5CE_%7Bp%7D%20%3D%204%2A9.81%2A0.5%3D19.62%5BJ%5D%5C%5CE_%7Bk%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%2Am%2Av%5E%7B2%7D%20%20%5C%5CE_%7Bk%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%2A4%2A%283%29%5E%7B2%7D%20%5C%5CE_%7Bk%7D%3D18%5BJ%5D%5C%5CTherefore%5C%5CE_%7BM%7D%20%3D18%2B19.62%5C%5CE_%7BM%7D%3D37.62%5BJ%5D)
All this energy will become kinetic energy and we can find the velocity.
![37.62=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\v=\sqrt{\frac{37.62*2}{4} } \\v=4.33[m/s]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=37.62%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%2Am%2Av%5E%7B2%7D%20%5C%5Cv%3D%5Csqrt%7B%5Cfrac%7B37.62%2A2%7D%7B4%7D%20%7D%20%5C%5Cv%3D4.33%5Bm%2Fs%5D)
Answer:
Da=(1/4)Db
Explanation:
t = Time taken
u = Initial velocity
v = Final velocity
s = Displacement
a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
When s = Da, t = t

When s = Db, t = 2t

Dividing the two equations

Hence, Da=(1/4)Db
