Answer:
A) 17.7 m/s
B) 15.98 m
C) Zero
E) 9.8 m/s²
Explanation:
given information
distance, h = - 34 m
time, t = 5 s
A) What is the initial speed of the egg?
h - h₀ = v₀t - t², h₀ = 0
- 34 = v₀ 5 - \frac{1}{2} 9.8 5²
- 34 = 5 v₀ - 122.5
v₀ = 122.5 - 34/5
= 17.7 m/s
B) How high does it rise above its starting point?
v² = v₀² - 2gh
v = 0 (highest point)
2gh = v₀²
h = v₀²/2g
= 17.7²/2 (9.8)
= 15.98 m
C) What is the magnitude of its velocity at the highest point?
v = 0 (at highest point)
E) What are the magnitude and direction of its acceleration at the highest point?
g= 9.8 m/s², since the egg is moved vertically, the acceleration is the same as the gravitational acceleration.
