An apple is released from rest 500 m above the ground. Due to the combined forces of air resistance and gravity, it has a speed of 40 m s when it reaches the ground. What percentage of the initial mechanical energy of the apple-earth system was dissipated due to air resistance? take the potential energy of the apple-earth system to be zero when the apple reaches the ground.

Asmall object with mass 0.200 kg swings back and forth on the lower end of a light rope that is 3.00 m long. the upper end of the rope is attached to the ceiling. as the object swings through its lowest position, where the rope is vertical, the speed of the object is 5.80 m/s. at this point in the motion, what is the tension in the rope? (use g = 9.80 m/s2.)
