Hi there!
Initially, we have gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy. If we set the zero-line at H2 (12.0m), then the ball at the second building only has kinetic energy.
We also know there was work done on the ball by air resistance that decreased the ball's total energy.
Let's do a summation using the equations:
Our initial energy consists of both kinetic and potential energy (relative to the final height of the ball)
Our final energy, since we set the zero-line to be at H2, is just kinetic energy.
And:
The work done by air resistance is equal to the difference between the initial energy and the final energy of the soccer ball.
Therefore:
Solving for the work done by air resistance:
Answer:
0m/s²
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Initial velocity of the boat = 8m/s
Final velocity = 8m/s
Time taken = 4s
Unknown:
Acceleration of the boat = ?
Solution:
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.
It is mathematically expressed as;
A =
A is the acceleration
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken
Insert the parameters and solve;
A = = 0m/s²
Answer:
4500 J
Explanation:
First, let's define some equations and derivations.
Our potential energy formula is:
Where <em>m </em>is mass (in kg), <em>g</em> is the gravitational constant (in m/s²), and <em>h</em> is height (in m).
We also know that <em>mg</em> is equal to the weight of an object (in N), from Newton's 2nd Law of Motion: F = ma (Force is equal to [constant] mass times acceleration).
Therefore, we can simply substitute force into the equation:
Where <em>F</em> is the force (in N) and <em>h</em> is still height (in m).
Now we can calculate the amount of potential energy in our system, measured in joules.
Substitute in the given variables, F = 500 N and h = 9 m:
Using simple Pre-Algebra rules, we find that:
This tells us that the we have 4500 joules of potential energy when I am 9 meters above the water on the edge of the diving board.
