A 4.0 kg mass starting at rest is dropped from a height of 120 m above the surface of the Earth.  As it falls it experiences an air resistance of 13 N.  Just before it strikes the ground, determine the change in potential energy ΔU, the work done by the air W, the final kinetic energy Kf, and its final speed vf.

A stone 0.44 kg mass is released from rest from a height of 29.4 m above the ground. Ignoring air resistance and letting the ground be the zero potential energy level, Determine the final kinetic energy of the stone using energy conservation principle only, not as a free fall. Determine the work done on the stone by gravity.

An object of mass 120 kg is released from rest 480000 m above the ground and allowed to fall under the influence of gravity. Assume the gravitational force is constant, with g=9.8 m/sec2 , and the force due to air resistance is proportional to the velocity of the object with proportionality constant k= 3 kg/sec. Approximate the speed (in m/sec) of the object when it strikes the ground.

A rock is dropped, from rest, from a height of 8.9 m above the ground at t = 0 s. At the same time that the rock is dropped a stone is thrown upward from a height of 1.1 m above the ground at a speed of 7.1 m/s. The stone travels straight upward toward the rock. There is no air resistance. a. Determine the height above the ground where the rock hits with the stone. Blank 1. Calculate the...
