velocity of object just before hitting the ground = 10 m/s

10 m/sExplanation:

here's the solution : -

=》mechanical energy is always constant, when the object is at the top of the building , the object has potential energy but no kinetic energy,

so, at the top of the building the mechanical energy = potential energy = 100 J

but at when it is dropped from the building, the whole potential energy get converted into kinetic energy, just before reaching the bottom .

so, mechanical energy in the object just before hitting the ground = kinetic energy

( potential energy = 0 )

So, kinetic energy = 100 J

now, we know

kinetic \: energy =  \frac{1}{2}  \times m {v}^{2}

=》

100 =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 2 \times  {v}^{2}

( since, mass = 2 kg )

=》

100 =  {v}^{2}

=》

v =  \sqrt{100}

=》

v = 10

so, velocity of object just before hitting the ground = 10 m/s

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

10.9 s

Explanation:

Given:

Δx = 367 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 6.2 m/s²

Find: t

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

367 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (6.2 m/s²) t²

t ≈ 10.9 s

Name two ways that friction is harmful and two ways that friction is helpful to you when riding a bicycle
lawyer [7]
<u>Harmful</u><u />

-causes heat; if it's not used correctly, it can cause injury
-when falling, the friction between your knee/leg and the ground can cause scrapes
<u>
</u>
<u>Helpful</u><u />

-helps stop the bike, the brakes rub against the tire which slows it down to a stop
-it can also help move the bike; the chains rub against tires which accelerate the bike
