A 1500kg wrecking ball hangs from a 20m -long cable. The ball is pulled back until the cable makes an angle of 30.0? with the vertical.
By how much has the gravitational potential energy of the ball changed?
delta U = m*g*h
= m*g*L*(1 - cos(30))
= 1500*9.8*20*(1 - cos(30))
= 39388.5 J
the height gain = 20 meters X sin30
PE = m g h
PE =1500 (9.8) x20sin30
EDIT
PE = 1500(9.8) x20 X 0.5
PE = 147000 Joules
chnge in gravitational potential energy = mgh
m = 1500kg
g = 9.8 m/s2
h = l -lcos 30 = 20(1-cos 30) =2.68m
change potential energy U = 1500x 9.8 x 2.68 =39396 J

A 1300 kg wrecking ball hangs from a 12-m-long cable. The ball is pulled back until the cable makes an angle of 15.0 ∘ with the vertical. By how much has the gravitational potential energy of the ball changed?
A-11; In the figure, a 1240-kg wrecking ball is pulled back with a horizontal force of 5480 N before being swung against the side of a building. a) What angle does the wrecking ball make with the vertical when it is pulled back? b) What is the tension in the ball's supporting cable when it is at this angle? 5480N mg
A ball that weighs 0,60 gr hangs from a 1m long string. It's pulled back and let go from a stationary position. At it's lowest point, it hits a 240 gr block on a horizontal table. The ball has a speed of 3,5m/s just before the collision. a) At what height was the ball let go? That is, how far from it's lowest point? b) The block get's a 1,1m/s speed just after the collision. What was the speed of...
A contractor is taking a building down with a big 5,500 kg wrecking ball. He uses a crane with a 35m long cable to swing the wrecking ball into the building. How much time does it take to swing the ball into the building from a point the ball is released from the crane?
A building is being knocked down with a wrecking ball, which is a big metal sphere that swings on a 10-m-long cable. You are (unwisely!) standing directly beneath the point from which the wrecking ball is hung when you notice that the ball has just been released and is swinging directly toward you. How much time do you have to move out of the way?
A 2kg steel ball hangs on a 8.0-m-long string. The ball is pulled sideways to an angle of 45°, then released. At the very bottom of the swing the ball strikes a 3kg steel block (perfectly elastic collision) that is resting on a frictionless table with a spring (k-20,000 N/m) further down. (a 10 points) To what maximum angle does the ball rebound (degrees)? h (b 5 points) What is the compression in the spring (m)?
