The potential energy of a catapult was completely converted into kinetic energy by releasing a small stone with a mass of 20 grams. the velocity of the stone when it reached the target was 15.0 meters/second. what was the value of the kinetic energy of the stone when it reached the target? 2.05 joules 2.25 joules 3.20 joules 4.43 joules

Answer : The correct option is, 2.25 joules.

Explanation : Given,

Mass of the stone = 20 g

Velocity of the stone = 15 m/s

Formula used for kinetic energy is :

where,

K.E = kinetic energy of the stone

m = mass of the stone

v = velocity of the stone

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the kinetic energy of the stone.

Therefore, The kinetic energy of the stone is, 2.25 joules.

which three statements are true about all alloys?

the design of a ski jumping suit involves a trade-off between giving the skiers lift to get higher jumps and ensuring the skier does not face a lot of drag before the jump itself. an expansive suit may to lift the skier higher, but at the same time, it will also increase the air resistance. higher air resistance as the skier goes down the slope limits the speed of the jump. a big suit also increases the risk of losing balance or control, especially if there's a strong gust of wind. while technologically enhanced suits a lot, clothing is not the only factor in a ski jumper’s success. gathering speed while skiing down the slope, ensuring good speed on the ramp, and maintaining good body posture and form in the air all contribute to a ski jumper's success.
