Three different objects, all with different masses, are initially at rest at the bottom of a set of steps. Each step is of uniform height d. The mass of each object is a multiple of the base mass m: object 1 has mass 4.60m, object 2 has mass 1.71m, and object 3 has mass m. When the objects are at the bottom of the steps, define the total gravitational potential energy of the three-object system to be zero. If the objects are then relocated as shown, what is the new total potential energy of the system? Each answer requires the numerical coefficient to an algebraic 3 expression. Each algebraic expression is given using some combination of the variables m, g, and d, where g is the acceleration due to gravity. Enter only the numerical coefficient. (Example: If the answer is 1.23mgd, just enter 1.23) Ug.system mgd 2.

Use conservation of energy to solve both parts of the following problem (initial kinetic energy + initial gravitational potential energy = final kinetic energy + final gravitational potential energy): A skydiver with a mass of 80.0 kg steps out of a hot-air balloon holding at an altitude of 1.00 km and opens their parachute at an altitude of 200. m. While they’re in free-fall, there is a total drag force of 50.0 N on them. Once the parachute has opened, there is a total drag force of 3.60 kN on them.

An object whose mass is 10 lb is projected straight upward from the surface of the earth and reaches a height of 100 ft when its velocity reaches zero. The only force acting on the object is the force of gravity. The acceleration of gravity is g = 32.2 ft/s². Determine the initial kinetic energy of the object, in ft·lbf, and the initial velocity of the object, in ft/s.
