i) Mass of snowball$m=1.50\text{鈥塳驳}$

ii) Height through which the snowball drops$h=12.5\text{鈥尘}$

iii) Gravitational acceleration $g=9.8{\text{m/s}}^{\text{2}}$

iv) The angle ${胃}_0={41.0}^{\text{o}}$

v) Initial velocity$v_0=14.0\text{m/s}$

Find the work done due to gravity using the formula in terms of gravitational force and height of the object.

i) Gravitational work on ball is given by formula

ii) Change in potential energy is given by

iii) Potential energy

Theforce is vertically downward and has magnitude mg, where mis the mass of the snowball.

$W_g=mgh$

$鈬�W_g=1.50脳9.80脳12.5$

$鈬�W_g=184\text{鈥塉}$

The force of gravity is conservative, so the change in the potential energy of the snowball Earth system is negative of the work that it does

$螖U=鈭�W_g=鈭�mgh$

$鈬�螖U=鈭�mgh$

$鈬�螖U=鈭�1.50脳9.80脳12.5$

$鈬�螖U=鈭�184\text{鈥塉}$

The potential energy, when it reaches the ground, is less than the potential energy when it is fired so, the potential energy when the snowball hits the ground is

$U=鈭�mgh$

$鈬�U=鈭�1.50脳9.80脳12.5$

$鈬�U=鈭�184\text{鈥塉}$
