Let's use Newton's 2nd law of motion:
Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
Force = (68 kg) x (1.2 m/s²) = 81.6 newtons .
Answer:
47.4 m
Explanation:
When an object is thrown upward, it rises up, it reaches its maximum height, and then it goes down. The time at which it reaches its maximum height is half the total time of flight.
In this case, the time of flight is 6.22 s, so the time the ball takes to reach the maximum height is
Now we consider only the downward motion of the ball: it is a free fall motion, so we can find the vertical displacement by using the suvat equation
where
s is the vertical displacement
u = 0 is the initial velocity
t = 3.11 s is the time
is the acceleration of gravity (taking downward as positive direction)
Solving the formula, we find
<span>First question: The type of energy involved when a river moves sediment and erodes its banks is: option d. Kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy associated with motion. A body (in this case the water) that moves has an energy associated with its motion that is proportional to the speed (exactly to the square of the speed). When the water collides with the banks it is the kinetic energy of the river that erodes it Second question: the answer is the option d. As gravity pulls water down a slope potential energy changes to knietic energy. This is the, water loses altitude and gains velocity. The potential energy. which is proportional to the height, decreases and the kinetic energy, which is proportional to the square of the speed, increases.</span>
