initial energy at top Ei = PE m*g*h
final energy when it hits the pot Ef = KE = (1/2)*m*v^2
from energy conservation
Ef = Ei
PE = KE
m*g*h = (1/2)*m*v^2
v = sqrt(2*g*h)
OPTION B is TRUE

As you look out of your dorm window, a flower pot suddenly falls past. The pot is visible for a time t and the vertical length of your window is L. Take down to be the positive direction, so that downward velocities are positive and the aoceleration due to gravity is the positive quantity g lfthe bottom of your window is a height h, above the round, what is the velocity %round ofthe pot as it hits the You may...
As you look out of your dorm window, a flower pot suddenly falls past. The pot is visible for a time t, and the vertical length of your window is Lw. Take down to be the positive direction, so that downward velocities are positive and the acceleration due to gravity is the positive quantity g. Assume that the flower pot was dropped by someone on the floor above you (rather than thrown downward). From what height h above the bottom...
A flower pot is knocked off a window ledge from a height d = 22.0 m above the sidewalk as shown in the figure below. It falls toward an unsuspecting man of height h = 1.72 m who is standing below. Assume the man requires a time interval of Δt = 0.300 s to respond to the warning. How close to the sidewalk can the flower pot fall before it is too late for a warning shouted from the balcony...
A grasshopper with a mass of 110 mg falls from rest from a height of 310 cm. Assuming no air resistance, at what speed, in m/s, does it hit the ground?
Mass M_2 starts from rest and falls a height H. Mass M_1 is attached by a rope to mass M_2. The rope goes over a massless and frictionless pulley. Assume the rope is massless and does not stretch. The coefficient of kinetic friction mu k exist between M_1 and the table. Determine the acceleration of M_1 after M_2 is released Determine the time it takes M_2 to fall to the ground. Determine the velocity of M_1 as M_2 hits the...
A flower vase (mass=2.40kg) is dropped from a height of 1.30m and falls to the floor. what is the speed of the vase just before impact? draw a diagram showing the direction of the force on the flower vase and its displacement and show derivation of the expression for the speed of the vase just before impact . what is the power generated by the weight of the flower vase?
A 2.00-kg-box, starting from rest, slides down a frictionless
incline. The incline makes and angle of ? = 30? from the horizontal
and is fixed to a table. The incline has a maximum height of h =
0.500 m above the table that is itself H = 2.00 m above the ground.
(a) Find the accleration of the box during the sliding period. (b)
What is the velocity of the box as it leaves the table. (c) What
horizontal distance...
An object of mass 5 kg and at rest falls to the ground from a height of 10.0m. If the object penetrates the ground to a depth of 50 mm after impact estimate the average retarding force.
- Part A-An apple falls from a tree and drops straight to the ground. Its initial height was 1.1 m, and its speed just before hitting the ground was 3.5 m/s. If air resistance does -8.0x10-2 J of work on the apple, what is the mass of the apple? 2.5x10-2 kg 1.7x10-2 kg 4.7x10-3 kg 3.2x10-2 kg
A sphere of radius r =34.5 cm and mass m = 1.80 kg starts from rest and rolls without slipping down a 30.0° incline that is 10.0 m long.A) Calculate its translational speed when it reaches the bottom.B) Calculate its rotational speed when it reaches the bottom. C) What is the ratio of translational to rotational kinetic energy at the bottom? D) Avoid putting in numbers until the end so you can answer: do your...
