Answer:
i needed points it was an emergency sorry
Explanation:
Complete question:
A fireman of mass 80 kg slides down a pole. When he reaches the bottom, 4.2 m below his starting point, his speed is 2.2 m/s. By how much has thermal energy increased during his slide?
Answer:
The thermal energy increased by 3,099.2 J
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the fireman, m = 80 kg
initial position of the fireman, hi = 4.2 m
final speed, v = 2.2 m/s
The change in the thermal energy is calculated as;
ΔE + (K.Ef - K.Ei) + (Uf - Ui) = 0
where;
ΔE is the change in the thermal energy
K.Ef is the final kinetic energy
K.Ei is the initial kinetic energy
Uf is the final potential energy
Ui is the initial potential energy

Answer: Final speed
Explaination: because its final.
