Answer:

v= 17.15 m/s

Explanation:

mass of the book=0.1 Kg

height above ground, h= 15 m

Using conservation of energy

Potential energy is converted into kinetic energy

mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

v=\sqrt{2gh}

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 15}

v=\sqrt{294}

v= 17.15 m/s

Hence, the book will hit the ground at the speed of 17.15 m/s.

Westkost [7]

Answer : The kinetic energy depends directly on the mass of a particle.

Explanation :

We know that the kinetic energy of any particle is given by :

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Where,

m is the mass of an object.

v is the velocity with which it is moving

Kinetic energy is due to the motion of the particle.

So, the kinetic energy of a particle is directly proportional to its mass.

Hence, the conclusion of the question is if the mass of a particle is increases then its kinetic energy also increase.

Which of the following is true about a planet orbiting a star in uniform circular
Mnenie [13.5K]

The velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the  circle is the following is true about a planet orbiting a star in uniform circular  motion.

A. The velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the  circle.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Motion of the planet around the star is mentioned to be uniform and around a circular path. Objects in uniform circular motion motion has constant angular speed but the velocity of the object will not remain constant. Since the planet is in circular motion the direction of velocity vector at a particular point is tangential to the circular path at that particular point.

Thus at every point, the direction of velocity vector changes and this means the velocity is never constant. The objects in uniform circular motion has centripetal acceleration which means that velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the  circle.
