Conservation of Energy

In physics, the rule of the conservation of energy states that energy doesn’t disappear from the atmosphere; instead, it changes its form from one type to another. Energy is one of the most important physical quantities in nature, and it cannot be create…

A lightweight drone (1.00 kg) is launched at 800 m high and moves upward at a constant velocity (while ignoring the effects of gravity only on the drone). The balloon, when measured at a horizontal distance from you, is about 1600 m away from you. At the moment when the drone moves, you shoot a bullet (weight =180 g) with an initial velocity of 1009 m/s at a fixed angle α, where sin α=3/5 and cos α= 4/5. (g = 9.8 m/s2) c. What is the upward velocity of the drone?

As part of an obstacle course, an athlete must kick a soccer ball into al meter wide and 10 meter deep pit such that the ball hits a target at the bottom of the pit. In practice, a dynamics student that is participating in the race kicks the soccer ball such that the soccer ball will bounce off the far wall of the pit 5 meters below the surface and head towards the target. If the velocity of the ball before striking the wall at point at point A is vA=3.21- 10j , determine the t-component of the ball velocity vector (in m) after striking the wall. The size of the ball and the target are negligible relative to the dimensions of the pit, the gravity acceleration must be considered as g = 10 and the coefficient of restitution at point A is e =0.55. 5 m 10m Im 目
