Answer:
1.) U = 39.2 m/s
2.) t = 4s
Explanation: Given that the
height H = 78.4m
The projectile is fired vertically upwards under the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2
Let's assume that the maximum height = 78.4m. And at maximum height, final velocity V = 0
Velocity of projections can be achieved by using the formula
V^2 = U^2 - 2gH
g will be negative as the object is moving against the gravity
0 = U^2 - 2 × 9.8 × 78.4
U^2 = 1536.64
U = sqrt( 1536.64 )
U = 39.2 m/s
The time it takes to reach its highest point can be calculated by using the formula;
V = U - gt
Where V = 0
Substitute U and t into the formula
0 = 39.2 - 9.8 × t
9.8t = 39.2
t = 39.2/9.8
t = 4 seconds.
While falling, both the sheet of paper and the paper ball experience air resistance. But the surface area of the sheet is much more than that of the spherical ball. And air resistance varies directly with surface area. Hence the sheet experiences more air resistance than the ball and it falls more slowly than the paper ball.
Hope that helps!
