4. A disobedient student dropped his Physics textbook (mass 0.1kg) from the window (15m above the ground). How fast was it going when it hit the ground?

Sagot :

Answer:

v= 17.15 m/s

Explanation:

mass of the book=0.1 Kg

height above ground, h= 15 m

Using conservation of energy

Potential energy is converted into kinetic energy

[tex]mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]

[tex]v=\sqrt{2gh}[/tex]

[tex]v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 15}[/tex]

[tex]v=\sqrt{294}[/tex]

v= 17.15 m/s

Hence, the book will hit the ground at the speed of 17.15 m/s.
