Answer:

At the top

K.E = 0

P.E = 981 J

Mechanical energy is conserved

P.E is maximum

K.E = 0

At the middle

K.E = 981 J

P.E = 0

Mechanical energy is conserved

K.E is maximum

P.E = 0

At the bottom

K.E = 0

P.E = 981 J

Mechanical energy is conserved

K.E = 0

P.E is maximum

Explanation:

Given that

M= 5kg

H = 20 m

t = 7 s

According to conservation of energy,

What is an Amplitude

dangina [55]

Amplitude is a measurement of the magnitude of displacement (or maximum disturbance) of a medium from its resting state, as diagramed in the peak deviation example below (it can also be a measurement of an electrical signal's increased or decreased strength above or below a nominal state).

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

the electric field strength of this charge is two times the strength of the other charge

Explanation:

Using the relationship between electric field and the charge, which is inversely proportionality. Let the the magnitude of the first charge be Q and the respective electric field be E. It implies that;

E1/E2 = Q2/Q1

E2 = E1 x Q1/Q2

= E x Q/ (Q/2)

= 2E

baherus [9]

Answer:

Explanation:

The most important thing to remember about parabolic motion in physics is that when an object reaches its max height, the velocity right there at the highest point is 0. Use this one-dimensional motion equation to solve this problem:

v = v₀ + at and filling in:

0 = v₀ + (-9.8)(4.0) **I put in 4.0 for time so we have more than just 1 sig fig here**

0 = v₀ - 39 and

-v₀ = -39 so

v₀ = 39 m/s
