A kangaroo can jump over an object 2.46 m high. (a) Calculate its vertical speed (in m/s) when it leaves the ground.

Elenna [48]

Answer:

a) 6.95 m/s

b) 1.42 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2as-v^2\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2\times -9.81\times 2.46-0^2\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 2.46}\\\Rightarrow u=6.95\ m/s$

a) The vertical speed when it leaves the ground. is 6.95 m/s

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-6.95}{-9.81}\\\Rightarrow t=0.71\ s$

Time taken to reach the maximum height is 0.71 seconds

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 2.46=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{2.46\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.71\ s$

Time taken to reach the ground from the maximum height is 0.71 seconds

b) Time it stayed in the air is 0.71+0.71 = 1.42 seconds

Julio hit a baseball. What caused the ball to change direction at the time of impact?

WARRIOR [948]

The answer is c. the force of his swing

At the time of the impact, there is a collision between two bodies moving in opposite directions.

The force exerted on the ball causes the change of velocity.

A person kicks a ball off of a 50m high cliff with a speed of 10 m/s. How long will it take the ball to hit the ground? * 7 poin

Musya8 [376]

Presumably, the ball is kicked parallel to the ground below the cliff, so its altitude <em>y</em> at time <em>t</em> is

$y(t)=50\,\mathrm m-\dfrac12gt^2$

where <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity.

The ball hits the ground when <em>y</em> = 0:

$0 = 50\,\mathrm m-\dfrac12gt^2$

$t^2=\dfrac{100\,\mathrm m}g$

$t=\dfrac{10}{9.80}\,\mathrm s\approx\boxed{3.2\,\mathrm s}$
