A painter is painting a sign on a bridge. A can of paint falls 10m to the ground below. Use the Conservation of Energy to calculate the velocity with which the can hits the ground. Give your answer correct to 2 decimal places. Clearly state your unit.
Take g = 10m/s2
Homework Answers
Applying conservation of energy,
Potential energy= kinetic energy
mgh = 1/2 ×mv2
v = √2gh
v =√2×10×10 = √200
v =14.14 m/s

A 505-g squirrel with a surface area of 920 cm2 falls from a 4.4-m tree to the ground. Estimate its terminal velocity. (Use therag coefficient for a horizontal skydiver. Assume that the cross-sectional area of the squirrel can be approximated as a rectangle of width 11.5 cm and length 23 cm. Note, the squirrel may not reach terminal velocity by the time it hits the ground. Give the squirrel's terminal velocity, not it's velocity as it hits the ground.) ITn/s...

readings were made on all these bridge end pillars. (A higher
reading means better visibility.) For the orange paint, the mean...

A coin is tossed upward from an initial height of 7 m above the ground, with an initial speed of 7.4 m/s m/s. The magnitude of the gravitational acceleration g = 9.8 m/s2 Take the point of release to be y0 = 0. Choose UPWARD as positive y direction. Pay attention to the signs of position, velocity and acceleration. Keep 2 decimal places in all answers. (a) Find the coin’s maximum height in meters above the ground? m Correct (100.0%)...
