a projectile is fired from the top of a 40 m height with an initial speed of 50 M per second at an unknown angle find its speed when it hits the ground
Answers
Hallo dear ♡
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Given:
Height of the cliff, h = 40 m
Initial speed of the projectile, u = 50 m/s
Let the projectile hit the ground with velocity 'v'.
Applying the law of conservation of energy,
mgh+12mu2=12mv2⇒10 × 40 + (12)× 2500=12v2⇒v2=3300⇒ v=57.4 m/s=58 m/s
The projectile hits the ground with a speed of 58 m/s.

Explanation:
given,
height of a body (h)= 40meter
initial velocity (u)= 50m/s
here acceleration = gravitational force because the body is falling downwards on ground so gravitational force acts here,
we know that ,gravitational force = 10 metre per second
we know that,
v²-u²=2as
v²=u²+2as
by substituting the values given
v²=(50)²+2(10)(40)
v²=2500+800
v²=3300
sending the ( )² to right side
v= √3300
v=√ (33)(100)
v= ( √33) (√100)
v=(5.8)(10)
v=58
