The stone, which weighs 400 g, is thrown upwards at a speed of 20 m / s. Climbed to a height of 12 m. Determine: what is equal to the work of the resistance force; equal to the mean resistance force?

Given that,

Mass of the stone, m = 400 g = 0.4 kg

Initial speed, u = 20 m/s

It is climbed to a height of 12 m.

To find,

The work done by the resistance force.

Solution,

Let v is the final speed. It can be calculated by using the conservation of energy.

Work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy. It can be given as follows :

So, the required work done is 32.99 J.
