The acceleration of a body in a gravitational field is independent of its mass. Both the stones will fall with the same acceleration through the same height and hence they will strike the ground simultaneously.

(a) Calculate the height of a cliff if it takes 2. 35 s for a rock to hit the ground when it is thrown straight up from the clif
Natali [406]

(a) The height of the cliff will be 8.26 meters.

(b) The time would it take to reach the ground will be 0.717 sec.

<h3>What is velocity?</h3><h3 />

The change of displacement with respect to time is defined as the velocity. Velocity is a vector quantity. it is a time-based component.

(a) The height of the cliff will be 8.26 meters.

According to Newton's second equation of motion

\rm H =ut-\frac{1}{2} gt^2 \\\\ \rm H =8\times 2.35-\frac{1}{2} 9.81 (2.35)^2\\\\\rm H =8.16 \; m

Hence The height of the cliff will be 8.26 meters.

(b)The time would it take to reach the ground will be 0.717 sec.

We must have the final velocity to find the time so;

\rm v^2=u^2+2gh\\\\ \rm v^2=8^2+2\times 9.81 \times 8.6 \\\\ \rm v= \sqrt{8^2+2\times 9.81 \times 8.6}\\\\\rm v=15.03 \;m/sec

According to Newton's third equation of motion ;

\rm v=u-gt \\\\ \rm t=\frac{v-u}{g} \\\\ \rm t=\frac{15.03-8}{9.81} \\\\ \rm t=0.717 sec.

Hence the time would it take to reach the ground will be 0.717 sec.

What is the amount of displacement of a runner who runs exactly 2 laps around a 400 meter track?
Alex787 [66]
Displacement is the distance and direction from the start point to the end point. Our runner finished exactly where he started. His displacement is zero.

A toy rocket is fired vertically into the air from the ground at an initial velocity of 80 feet per second. Find the time it wil
miskamm [114]

Answer: 16.3 seconds

Explanation: Given that the

Initial velocity U = 80 ft/s

Let's first calculate the maximum height reached by using third equation of motion.

V^2 = U^2 - 2gH

Where V = final velocity and H = maximum height.

Since the toy is moving against the gravity, g will be negative.

At maximum height, V = 0

0 = 80^2 - 2 × 9.81 × H

6400 = 19.62H

H = 6400/19.62

H = 326.2

Let's us second equation of motion to find time.

H = Ut - 1/2gt^2

Let assume that the ball is dropped from the maximum height. Then,

U = 0. The equation will be reduced to

H = 1/2gt^2

326.2 = 1/2 × 9.81 × t^2

326.2 = 4.905t^2

t^2 = 326.2/4.905

t = sqrt( 66.5 )

t = 8.15 seconds

The time it will take for the rocket to return to ground level will be 2t.

That is, 2 × 8.15 = 16.3 seconds
