A ball is dropped from rest from a height h above the ground. another ball is thrown vertically upwards from the ground at the i

Darya [45]

The position of the first ball is

$y_1=h-\dfrac g2t^2$

while the position of the second ball, thrown with initial velocity $v$ , is

$y_2=vt-\dfrac g2t^2$

The time it takes for the first ball to reach the halfway point satisfies

$\dfrac h2=h-\dfrac g2t^2$

$\implies\dfrac h2=\dfrac g2t^2$

$\implies t=\sqrt{\dfrac hg}$

We want the second ball to reach the same height at the same time, so that

$\dfrac h2=v\sqrt{\dfrac hg}-\dfrac g2\left(\sqrt{\dfrac hg}\right)^2$

$\implies h=2v\sqrt{\dfrac hg}-g\left(\dfrac hg\right)$

$\implies h=v\sqrt{\dfrac hg}$

$\implies v=\sqrt{hg}$

the distance a spring will stretch varies directly with how much weight is attached to the spring. If a spring stretches 11 inch

Paha777 [63]

Direct variation involves ration and proportions, so

you need to set up the proportion:

11 / 75 = x / 65

Cross multiplying:

75x = 11*65

x = (11*65)/75

Solving, we get x = 9.533, 

which rounds off to 9.5

Therefore, the spring will stretch up to 9.5 inches with 65 attached.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.
