Answer:
1.034m/s
Explanation:
We define the two moments to develop the problem. The first before the collision will be determined by the center of velocity mass, while the second by the momentum preservation. Our values are given by,
<em>Part A)</em> We apply the center of mass for velocity in this case, the equation is given by,
Substituting,
Part B)
For the Part B we need to apply conserving momentum equation, this formula is given by,
Where here is the velocity after the collision.
Answer:
73.67 m
Explanation:
If projected straight up, we can work in 1 dimension, and we can use the following kinematic equations:
,
Where its our initial height,
our initial speed, a the acceleration and t the time that has passed.
For our problem, the initial height its 0 meters, our initial speed its 38.0 m/s, the acceleration its the gravitational one ( g = 9.8 m/s^2), and the time its uknown.
We can plug this values in our equations, to obtain:
note that the acceleration point downwards, hence the minus sign.
Now, in the highest point, velocity must be zero, so, we can grab our second equation, and write:
and obtain:
Plugin this time on our first equation we find:
