A stone dropped from the top of a 80m high building strikes the ground at 40 m/s after falling for 4 seconds. The stone's potential energy with respect to the ground is equal to its kinetic energy … (use g = 10 m/s 2) A) at the moment of impact.
B) 2 seconds after the stone is released.
C) after the stone has fallen 40 m.
D) when the stone is moving at 20 m/s.

At the moment of impact both Kinetic Energy and Potential Energy should be 0, right? So it can't be A), right? Or is this wrong? Is it indeed A)? Please show work and explain it well.

Review multiple-concept example 7 in this chapter as an aid in solving this problem. in a fast-pitch softball game the pitcher is impressive to watch, as she delivers a pitch by rapidly whirling her arm around so that the ball in her hand moves in a circle. in one instance, the radius of the circle is 0.626 m. at one point on this circle, the ball has an angular acceleration of 66.1 rad/s2 and an angular speed of 12.6 rad/s. (a) find the magnitude of the total acceleration (centripetal plus tangential) of the ball. (b) determine the angle of the total acceleration relative to the radial direction.
