Kinetic energy =
1/2 (mass) • (velocity squared).
I don't see distance in that formula anywhere, so they're not related.
Answer:
The velocity of the hay bale is - 0.5 ft/s and the acceleration is 
Solution:
As per the question:
Constant velocity of the horse in the horizontal, 
Distance of the horse on the horizontal axis, x = 10 ft
Vertical distance, y = 20 ft
Now,
Apply Pythagoras theorem to find the length:


Now,
(1)
Differentiating equation (1) w.r.t 't':


where
= Rate of change of displacement along the horizontal
= Rate of change of displacement along the vertical
= velocity along the x-axis.
= velocity along the y-axis



Acceleration of the hay bale is given by the kinematic equation:





Answer:
F = (913.14 , 274.87 )
|F| = 953.61 direction 16.71°
Explanation:
To calculate the resultant force you take into account both x and y component of the implied forces:

Thus, the net force over the body is:

Next, you calculate the magnitude of the force:

and the direction is:
