Question 989953: The total mechanical energy of an object with mass
m at height
h in a closed system can be written as
ME = 1/2mv^2 + mgh. Solve for v, the velocity of the object, in terms of the given quantities.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The total mechanical energy of an object with mass
m at height
h in a closed system can be written as
ME = 1/2mv^2 + mgh. Solve for v, the velocity of the object, in terms of the given quantities.
------
2ME = mv^2 + 2mgh
------
mv^2 = 2(ME-mgh)
-----
v = sqrt[2(ME-mgh)/m]
