A pinball machine launches a .045 kg ball at a speed of 9.2 m/s. Determine the potential energy of the spring just before it launched the pinball

Given :

A pinball machine launches a .045 kg ball at a speed of 9.2 m/s.

To Find :

The potential energy of the spring just before it launched the pinball.

Solution :

We know, their is no external force applied on system.

It means that kinetic energy will remains constant.

Initial Energy = Final Energy

Therefore, the potential energy of the spring just before it launched the pinball os 1.9044 J.

when jerome paddle in flowing river towards east the net speed of jerome will increase

so the net speed of jerome will be given as

now the speed of paul will be same as it is given as he is running on the ground

so

so here we can say since the speed of jerome is more so he will win the race

now as we know the distance so the time difference is given as

so jerome will reach first and the time difference will be 203.55 s or 3.4 min

1.195000

explanation:

total mass=0.0117+0.0137+0.0881+0.0111

total mass= 0.01172kg

total velocity = 0.283-0.743+0.871-0.799+0.155+0.637+0.301=0.102

momentum=mv=0.1172*0.102=1.195000//
