A ball is thrown downward from the top of a 55.0 m tower with an initial speed of 11.0 m/s. Assuming negligible air resistance,

what is the speed of the ball just before hitting the ground?

I'm not positive however my guess is this.
KE=(1/2)mv^2
KE=(1/2)(55)(121)
KE=3327.5m/s^2
You might not want to use this tho.

Air (14.5 lb) undergoes a polytropic process in a closed system from p1 = 80 lbf/in2, υ1 = 4 ft3/lb to a final state where p2 =

Yanka [14]

The energy transfer in terms of work has the equation:

W = mΔ(PV)

To be consistent with units, let's convert them first as follows:

P₁ = 80 lbf/in² * (1 ft/12 in)² = 5/9 lbf/ft²
P₂ = 20 lbf/in² * (1 ft/12 in)² = 5/36 lbf/ft²
V₁ = 4 ft³/lbm
V₂ = 11 ft³/lbm

W = m(P₂V₂ - P₁V₁)
W = (14.5 lbm)[(5/36 lbf/ft²)(4 ft³/lbm) - (5/9 lbf/ft²)(11 lbm/ft³)]
W = -80.556 ft·lbf

In 1 Btu, there is 779 ft·lbf. Thus, work in Btu is:
W = -80.556 ft·lbf(1 Btu/779 ft·lbf)
<em>W = -0.1034 BTU</em>

Calculate the focal length of the mirror formed by the convex side of a shiny spoon that has a 1.54 cm radius of curvature. (b)

blondinia [14]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of curvature of the mirror, R = 1.54 cm

(a) We have to find the focal length of the mirror. The relationship between the focal length and the radius of curvature is given by :

$R=2f$

f = focal length of the mirror

$f=\dfrac{1.54\ cm}{2}$

f = 0.77 cm

(b) The power of mirror is given by the reciprocal of focal length i.e.

Power, $P=\dfrac{1}{f}$

P = 1.29 diopters

Hence, this is the required solution.
