Thor stands on top of the Stark Tower (425 m) and fights his brother Loki using Mjolnir, his hammer. If his hammer has a mass equal to 300 billion elephants (4.5*1015 kg), what is the gravitational potential energy (in J) of Mjolnir, relative to the ground? (Answer in scientific notation) part 2 of question: Loki tricks Thor into dropping Mjolnir off Stark Tiwer. When the hammer has fallen one third of the way down the tower, what is the kinetic energy (in J)?
Since the initial potential energy and final kinetic energy are zero, our equation now becomes EP,f = EK,i. We can then substitute the formula for kinetic energy, EK = 1/2mv2, and the formula for gravitational potential energy, EP = mgh, mghf = 1/2mvi2. Now it's just a matter of doing the algebra, solving for the final height hf, and substituting values to find hf. Notice that the mass m divides out of both sides of the equation, so the value of the mass is not needed to find the final height. Calculate the maximum height of the ball in meters. hf = __________ m
