Answer:

PE = 44.1 J

Explanation:

Ok, to have the specific data, the first thing we must do is convert from grams to kilograms. Since mass must always be in kilograms (kg)

We have:

  • 1 kilograms = 1000 grams.

We convert it using a rule of 3, replacing, simplifying units and solving:

  • \boxed{\bold{x=\frac{gr*1\ kg}{1000\ gr}=\frac{300\ gr*1\ kg}{1000\ gr}=\frac{300\ kg}{1000}=\boxed{\bold{0.3\ kg}}}}

==================================================================

Earth's gravity is known to be 9.8 m/s², so we have:

Data:

  • m = 0.3 kg
  • g = 9.8 m/s²
  • h = 15 m
  • PE = ?

Use formula of potencial energy:

  • \boxed{\bold{PE=m*g*h}}

Replace and solve:

  • \boxed{\bold{PE=0.3\ kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}*15\ m}}
  • \boxed{\boxed{\bold{PE=44.1\ J}}}

Since the decimal number, that is, the number after the comma is less than 5, it cannot be rounded, then we have this result.

The potential energy of the volleyball is <u>44.1 Joules.</u>

Greetings.

If the thrower takes 0.90 s to complete one revolution, starting from rest, what will be the speed of the discus at release?
Marysya12 [62]
Ω₀ = the initial angular velocity (from rest)
t = 0.9 s, time for a revolution
θ = 2π rad, the angular distance traveled

Let
α =  the angular acceleration
ω =  the final angular velocity

The angular rotation obeys the equation
(1/2)*(α rad/s²)*(0.9 s)² = (2π rad)
α = 15.514 rad/s²

The final angular velocity is
ω = (15.514 rad/s²)*(0.9 s) = 13.963 rad/s

If the thrower's arm is r meters long, the tangential velocity of release will be 
v = 13.963r m/s

Answer: 13.963 rad/s
