1. 14 m/s

   Explanation:

   The velocity u at the ground from an elevation of 26 m is given by

   [tex]u=\sqrt{2gh} =\sqrt{2\times9.8\times26} \text{ m/s}[/tex]

   Now, the speed of the car v at the top of the hill , which is at an elevation of 16 m can be calculated by

   [tex]v^2 =u^2-2gh= 2\times9.8\times26-2\times9.8\times16\\=2\times9.8\times10\\=196\\=14 \text{ m/s}[/tex]

2. The speed of the car at the top of the hill is 14m/s

   Explanation:

   given that

   Initial velocity u of the car=0 m/s

   The distance can be determined by finding out the difference between the elevation of the first slope and second slope.

   elevation of the first slope=26 m

   elevation of second slope=16m

   distance s=26-16=10 m

   acceleration due to gravity g=9.8 m/s2

   speed of the car at the top of the hill can be determined by using the equation

   [tex]v^2=u^2+2as\\v^2=0^2+2\times 9.8\times 10\\=196\\v=\sqrt{196} =14m/s[/tex]

   speed of the car at the top of the hill is 14m/s

3. option (c)

   Explanation:

   h1 = 26 m

   h2 = 16 m

   Let the speed of the car is v.

   Use the law of energy conservation

   Potential energy at initial point = Potential energy at final point + Kinetic energy at final point

   m x g x h1 = m x g x h2 + 1/2 x m x v^2

   9.8 x 26 - 9.8 x 16 = 0.5 x v^2

   196 = v^2

   v = 14 m/s

4. v = 14 m / s

   Explanation:

   For this exercise Let's use the concepts of mechanical energy. Let's write in two points, the highest one where energy is potential and the lowest one where energy is potential and kinetic part pate

   initial. Highest  

          Em₀ = U = mg y₁

   final. top  on the hill

         [tex]E_{mf}[/tex] = K + U = ½ m v² + mg y₂

   As there is no rubbing

         Em₀ = [tex]E_{mf}[/tex]

         mg y₁ = ½ m v² + mg y₂

         v = √ 2g (y₁ -y₂)

   Let's calculate

       v = √ 2 9.8 (26 - 16)

       v = 14 m / s

5. The speed of the car at the top of the hill is C) 14 m/s

   Further explanation

   Let's recall the formula of Kinetic Energy as follows:

   [tex]\large {\boxed {E_k = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 }[/tex]

   Ek = Kinetic Energy ( Newton )

   m = Object's Mass ( kg )

   v = Speed of Object ( m/s )

   Let us now tackle the problem !

   [tex]\texttt{ }[/tex]

   Given:

   initial height = h₁ = 26 m

   final height = h₂ = 16 m

   initial speed = v₁ = 0 m/s

   Asked:

   final speed = v₂ = ?

   Solution:

   We will use Conservation of Energy formula to solve this problem as follows:

   [tex]Ep_1 + Ek_1 = Ep_2 + Ek_2[/tex]

   [tex]mgh_1 + \frac{1}{2}m(v_1)^2 = mgh_2 + \frac{1}{2}m(v_2)^2[/tex]

   [tex]mgh_1 + \frac{1}{2}m(0)^2 = mgh_2 + \frac{1}{2}m(v_2)^2[/tex]

   [tex]mgh_1 = mgh_2 + \frac{1}{2}m(v_2)^2[/tex]

   [tex]gh_1 = gh_2 + \frac{1}{2}(v_2)^2[/tex]

   [tex]2g(h_1 - h_2) = (v_2)^2[/tex]

   [tex]v_2 = \sqrt {2g(h_1 - h_2)}[/tex]

   [tex]v_2 = \sqrt { 2(9.8)(26 - 16) }[/tex]

   [tex]v_2 = \sqrt { 196 }[/tex]

   [tex]v_2 = 14 \texttt{ m/s}[/tex]
