5 0

Given

The projectile is in air for a time of t=8 sec

To find

The time it takes to reach the highest point

Explanation

A projectile moves up to the highest point and then again moves down following a parabolic path.

So it will reach the highest point at a time half the time it requires to follow teh parabolic path.

The time taken to reach the highest point is 4 sec

Conclusion

The time taken is 4 sec.

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

25.08m/s

Explanation:

mgh1 + 0.5mv1² = mgh2 + 0.5mv2²

h1 = 0m

v1 = u

h2 = 5m

v2 = 23m/s

putting the values into the formula above;

m(10)(0) + 0.5m(u²) = m(10)(5) + 0.5m(23²)

0 + 0.5mu² = 50m + 264.5m

0.5mu² = 314.5m

dividing through by m

0.5u² = 314.5

u² = 629

Aleks [24]

1) 29.4 N

The force of gravity between two objects is given by:

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M and m are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between the centres of mass of the two objects

In this problem, we have

M=5.97\cdot 10^{24} kg (mass of the Earth)

m=3.0 kg (mass of the box)

r=R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m (Earth's radius, which is also the distance between the centres of mass of the two objects, since the box is located at Earth's surface)

Substituting into the equation, we find F:

F=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.97\cdot 10^{24})(3.0)}{(6.37\cdot 10^6)^2}=29.4 N

2) g=9.8 m/s^2

Let's now calculate the ratio F/m. We have:

F = 29.4 N

m = 3.0 kg

Subsituting, we find

\frac{F}{m}=\frac{29.4}{3.0}=9.8 N/kg = 9.8 m/s^2

This is called acceleration of gravity, and it is the acceleration at which every object falls near the Earth's surface. It is indicated with the symbol g.

We can prove that this is the acceleration of the object: in fact, according to Newton's second law,

F=ma

where a is the acceleration of the object. Re-arranging,

a=\frac{F}{m}

which is exactly equal to the quantity we have calculated above.
