You reach out of a window 15 m above the ground and toss a ball straight up with a speed of 10 m/s. Neglecting air resistance, what is (a) the ball’s maximum height above the ground, and (b) the ball’s speed when it hits the ground? Solve both parts of this problem using kinematics as well as energy conservation, and show that you get the same answers.
A box of 9kg is released from rest on a rough inclined plane and slides to the bottom. The plane is inclined at a 230 angle to the horizontal and it is 5.1 m high. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the plane is 0.1. Use conservation of energy to determine the speed of the block as it reaches the bottom.
Please use the information in the picture to answer the question: How fast must it have leapt from the water to reach a such a great height and speed. If you stand at the bow where you can reach up to a height of 3m above the water. You can only catch a fish if it is traveling under 8.5m/s when it reaches you. Will you be able to catch the fish? Find the speed of the fish at your location. Hint: use energy conservation.
