Answer:

12.495m/s

Explanation:

Horizontal displacement is the range of the projectile motion.

The range is expressed as;

R = 2U/g

U is the speed at which the rock is thrown (initial speed)

g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Given

R = 255cm = 2.55m

g = 9.8m/s²

Required

Speed U

Substitute the given parameters into the formula as shown;

2.55 = 2U/9.8

Cross multiply

2U = 2.55×9.8

2U = 24.99

U = 24.99/2

U = 12.495m/s

Hence the speed that you thew the rock is 12.495m/s

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

<em>When the speed is doubled, K = 100 J, when the speed is tripled, K = 225 J</em>

Explanation:

<u>Kinetic Energy </u>

Is the type of energy an object has due to its speed. It's proportional to the square of the speed.

The equation for the kinetic energy is:

\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Where:

m = mass of the object

v = speed at which the object moves

The kinetic energy is expressed in Joules (J)

The object has a kinetic energy of K=25 J when moving at v=5 m/s, thus the mass can be calculated by solving for m:

\displaystyle m=\frac{2K}{v^2}

\displaystyle m=\frac{2*25}{5^2}=2

m = 2 Kg

If the speed is doubled, v=10 m/s, the new kinetic energy is:

\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}2\cdot 10^2

K = 100 J

If the speed is tripled, v=15 m/s, the new kinetic energy is:

\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}2\cdot 15^2

K = 225 J

When the speed is doubled, K = 100 J, when the speed is tripled, K = 225 J
