Answer
18.3km
Explanation:
The initial kinetic energy is 1/2 m v0^2. The initial potential energy, choosing to measure that relative to ground level, is zero.
At the top of the trajectory the kinetic energy is zero ( the particle stops to turn around) and the potential energy is m g h.
Conservation of total mechanical energy then implies
m g h = 1/2 m v0^2
So
h = v0^2/(2g)
= (600 m/s)^2/(2*9.81 m/s^2) = 18.3km
Answer:
Explanation:
Given:
Velocity, v = 650 m/s
The initial kinetic energy and the initial potential energy, choosing to measure that relative to ground level, is zero.
Therefore, Using conservation of mechanical energy,
Potential energy = kinetic energy
M × g × h = 1/2 × M × v^2
h = (2 ×650^2)/9.8
= 86224.5 m
= 86.225 km.
