When thrown from the balloon, the sandbag has a constant horizontal/forward velocity. As the text puts it, "the sandbag continues forward as if it had not been dropped." What this means is that the sandbag has no acceleration in the horizontal plane of motion, so it moves in this direction at a constant speed. So for any time t, the horizontal velocity is given by

v_x(t) = 12\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

In the vertical plane of motion, the sandbag has no vertical velocity until it's released and allowed to fall. As it's falling, however, the sandbag is being pulled down by gravity and is accelerating with magnitude g=9.8\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}, so its vertical/downward velocity at time t is given by

v_y(t) = -gt

So, after 3 seconds have passed, the sandbag has horizontal velocity v_x = 12\frac{\rm m}{\rm s} and vertical velocity v_y = -g(3\,\mathrm s) = -29.4\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}. If the question is specifically asking about speed you would just ignore the negative signs.

A rocket, initially at rest on the ground, accelerates straight upward from rest with constant (net) acceleration 29.4 m/s2 m /
Sidana [21]

Answer:

The maximum height is 2881.2 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration = 29.4 m/s²

Time = 7.00 s

We need to calculate the distance

Using equation of motion

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Put the value into the formula

s=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times29.4\times7^2

s=720.3\ m

We need to calculate the velocity

Using formula of velocity

v=a\times t

Put the value into the formula

v=29.4\times7

v=205.8\ m/s

We need to calculate the height

Using formula of height

H=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}

Put the value into the formula

H=\dfrac{(205.8)^2}{2\times9.8}

H=2160.9\ m

We need to calculate the maximum height

Using formula for maximum height

H'=H+s

Put the value into the formula

H'=2160.9+720.3

H'=2881.2\ m

Hence, The maximum height is 2881.2 m.

A truck covers 47.0 m in 8.60 s while smoothly slowing down to final speed of 2.30 m/s. (a) Find its original speed.
Kruka [31]

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance, s = 47 m

Time taken, t = 8.6 s

Final speed of the truck, v = 2.3 m/s

Let u is the initial speed of the truck and a is its acceleration such that :

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}.............(1)

Now, the second equation of motion is :

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Put the value of a in above equation as :

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{v-u}{t}\times t^2

s=\dfrac{t(u+v)}{2}

u=\dfrac{2s}{t}-v

u=\dfrac{2\times 47}{8.6}-2.3

u = 8.63 m/s

So, the original speed of the truck is 8.63 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
