A 1.50 kg snowball is fired from a cliff 13.0 m high with an initial velocity of 14.0 m/s, directed 41.0° above the horizontal.
(a) What is the change in the gravitational potential energy of the snowball-Earth system during the flight?
__ J
(b) If that gravitational potential energy is taken to be zero at the height of the cliff, what is its value when the snowball reaches the ground?
__ J
(c) Find the speed of the snowball just before it hits the ground at the bottom of the cliff.
__ m/s
(d) Repeat part (c) if the initial velocity makes an angle of 20o with the horizontal..
__ m/s
