Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 98.1 \ Joules}}

Explanation:

The formula for potential energy is:

E_p=mgh

where m is the mass, g is the gravitational acceleration, and h is the height.

The mass is 5 kilograms and the height is 2 meters. Assuming this ball is on Earth, then the gravitational acceleration is 9.81 meters per square second.

m= 5 \ kg \\g= 9.81 \ m/s^2 \\\h= 2 \ m

Substitute the values into the formula.

E_p= ( 5 \ kg )(9.81 \ m/s^2)( 2 \ m)

Multiply the first two numbers.

E_p=49.05 \ kg*m/s^2 (2 \ m )

Multiply again.

E_p= 98.1 \ kg*m^2/s^2

  • 1 kilogram square meter per square second is equal to 1 Joule.
  • Our answer is equal to 98.1 Joules

E_p= 98.1 \ J

The ball has 98.1 Joules of potential energy.

What is the average acceleration of a rocket that travels 400m in 5s if it starts from rest?​
Pavel [41]

Answer:

<h2>32m/s^2</h2>

Explanation:

We want to find the acceleration based on the given data

Given

distance s=400m

time t= 5s

u= 0m/s since it started from rest

We apply the following expression

s=ut+1/2at^2

substituting we have

400=0*5+1/2*a(5)^2

400=25a/2

cross multiply

25a=400*2

25a=800

divide both sides by 25 we have

a=800/25

a=32m/s^2

The acceleration is 32m/s^2
