Yeah, velocity increases. Then it is squared in the formula for kinetic energy.

Homework Statement Pretty simple question, just checking for confirmation. It was a small question at the beginning of a summative test, a rock was dropped off of a bridge and we were asked to graph the kinetic energy over time. Homework Equations 1/2mv^2. The Attempt at a Solution I...

Yeah that's why I multiplied by sin and cos to make all the components on one axis.

Actually upon further inspection, could I somehow make it (Fapplied)(tanØ) and (Fgravity)(tanØ)? I am confident that the trig law tanØ = sinØ/cosØ will be used. At least I'm on to something :(

Homework Statement No official problem, just a study guide fill-in-the-blanks with an extended simplification blank. Basically, no values were given, and it is a standard block on a standard slope with a north-east applied force pushing down on the block (not parallel to horizontal or vertical...

I would use change in velocity / change in time in both the x and y directions to find acceleration in x and y. F = ma, so use the acceleration and mass of the pilot to find the x and y forces and then use Pythagoras to find total force? :D

Homework Statement A plane went 300m/s 35° south of west then 230m/s 20° east of north. What is the magnitude and direction of the 65kg pilot during the 12s turn? Homework Equations Kinematics. Vf = Vi + at, d = ViT + 0.5at^2, Vf^2 = Vi^2 + 2ad The Attempt at a Solution This was a question...

Glad to be acquaintanced. ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ (Unicode. Hah.) Looking forward to losing more of my hair in the near future.
