Aball is hurled straight up at a speed of 15 m/s, leaving the hand of the thrower 2.00 m above the ground. compute the times and the ball’s speeds when it passes an observer sitting at a window in line with the throw 10.0 m above the point of release.

5.37 m/s

0.98 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Velocity of the ball when it passes an observer sitting at a window is 5.37 m/s

Time taken by the ball to pass the observer sitting at a window is 0.98 seconds

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.

so easy. just google the electromagnetic waves and it’ll pop up.
