Hi!
The answer would be 22.5m
<h3>Explanation</h3>
To calculate the distance the ball travels, you would need to apply the following formula from the equations of motion for an accelerating object:
2as = v^2 - u^2
Where a is acceleration due to gravity, 9.8m/s^2
s is the distance traveled by the object (height of ball in this case)
v is the final velocity, which we know will be zero at the point where the ball reaches maximum height.
u is the initial velocity, which is known to us as 21m/s
Rearranging the equation to solve for the height:
s = (v^2 - u^2 ) / 2a
s = ( 0^2 - 21^2 ) / 2(-9.8)
s = - 441/ - 19.6
s = 22.5m
<em>Note: since gravity is acting against the object's motion, it will be negative </em>
<em>Hope this helps!</em>
Inertia is an object's resistance to change in motion. In other words the difficulty in moving an object or stopping it from moving. A heavier car has more inertia than a lighter car because it's harder to move. A faster car has more inertia than a slower one with equal mass because it's harder to get it to stop.
So the more inertia a car has, the more dangerous it is in a collision.
Power is the rate in which work is being done
Answer:
Part a)
Part b)
So this speed is independent of the mass of the rider
Explanation:
Part a)
By force equation on the rider at the position of the hump we can say
now we will have
now we have
Part b)
At the top of the loop if the minimum speed is required so that it remains in contact so we will have
at minimum speed
So this speed is independent of the mass of the rider
