A small ball is projected into the air from horizontal ground. The diagram shows part of the path of the ball.
The ball leaves the ground at point X with a kinetic energy of 8.0 J. A short time later, the ball is at point Y where it has a kinetic energy of 3.5 J.
Point Y is at a vertical height of 8.8 m above the ground. Air resistance is negligible.
What is the mass of the ball?
