A 3-kg ball is thrown with a speed of 10 m/s at an unknown angle above the horizontal. The ball attains a maximum height of 1.7 m before striking the ground. If air resistance is negligible, what is the value of the kinetic energy of the ball at its highest point?

Electric field of the earth. the earth has a net electric charge that causes a field at points near its surface equal to 150 n> c and directed in toward the center of the earth. (a) what magnitude and sign of charge would a 60-kg human have to acquire to overcome his or her weight by the force exerted by the earth’s electric field? (b) what would be the force of repulsion between two people each with the charge calculated in part (a) and separated by a distance of 100 m? is use of the earth’s electric field a feasible means of flight? why or why not?
