In 1453, during the siege of Constantinople, the Turks used a cannon capable of launching a stone cannonball with a mass of 5.40 ⋅ 102 kg. Suppose a soldier dropped a cannonball with this mass while trying to load it into the cannon. The cannonball rolled down a hill that made an angle of 30.0° with the horizontal. If 5.30 ⋅ 104 J of work was done by gravity on the cannonball as it rolled down a hill, how far did it roll?

Apotter's wheel moves uniformly from rest to an angular speed of 0.20 rev/s in 32.0 s. (a) find its angular acceleration in radians per second per second. rad/s2 (b) would doubling the angular acceleration during the given period have doubled final angular speed?

To place a communications satellite into a geosynchronous orbit at an altitude of 22,240 mi above the surface of the earth, the satellite first is released from a space shuttle , which is in a circular orbit at an altitude of 185 mi, and then is propelled by an upper-stage booster to its final altitude. as the satellite passes through a, the booster's motor is fired to insert the satellite into an elliptic transfer orbit. the booster is again fired at b to insert the satellite into a geosynchronous orbit. knowing that the second firing increases the speed of the satellite by 4810ft/s, determine (a.) the speed of the satellite as it approaches b on the elliptic transfer orbit, (b.) the increase in speed resulting from the first firing at a.
