Refer to the following information for the next nine questions.
A ball of mass 600 grams is launched horizontally with a velocity of 25 m/sec from the top of a 100-meter cliff.
Fill out the following chart for the ball's potential energy and kinetic energy at each position specified. The potential energy of the ball is considered to be zero at the bottom of the cliff.
On the axes supplied, sketch and label the following three graphs.
- potential energy vs distance fallen,
- kinetic energy vs distance fallen, and
- total energy vs distance fallen
Fill out the following chart for the ball's potential energy and kinetic energy at each time specified. The potential energy of the ball is considered to be zero at the bottom of the cliff.
