Lacie kicks a football from ground level at a velocity of 13.9 m/s and at an angle of 25.0° to the ground. How long will the bal

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

T = 1.2 s

T = 15.1 m = 15 m

Explanation:

This is a case of projectile motion:

TOTAL TIME OF FLIGHT:

The formula for total time of flight in projectile motion is:

T = 2 V₀ Sinθ/g

where,

T = Total Time of Flight = ?

V₀ = Launch Speed = 13.9 m/s

θ = Launch Angle = 25°

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

T = (2)(13.9 m/s)(Sin 25°)/(9.8 m/s²)

T = 1.2 s

RANGE OF BALL:

The formula for range in projectile motion is:

R = V₀² Sin2θ/g

where,

R = Horizontal Distance Covered by ball = ?

Therefore,

T = (13.9 m/s)²(Sin 2*25°)/(9.8 m/s²)

T = 15.1 m = 15 m

A quarter is flipped from a height of 1.45 m above the ground. How much time will it take to reach the ground if the person flip

Artemon [7]

It will take the quarter 0.151 seconds to reach the ground.

Given the following data:

Height = 1.45 meters

Initial velocity = 10.32 m/s

We know that acceleration due to gravity (a) for an object is equal to 9.8 meter per seconds square.

To find how much time it will take the quarter to reach the ground, we would use the second equation of motion.

Mathematically, the second equation of motion is given by the formula;

$S = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2$

Where:

S is the height or distance covered.

u is the initial velocity.

a is the acceleration.

t is the time measured in seconds.

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

$1.45 = 10.32(t) + \frac{1}{2} (9.8)t^2\\\\1.45 = 10.32t + 4.9t^2\\\\4.9t^2 + 10.32t - 1.45 = 0$

The standard form of a quadratic equation is:

$ax^2 + bx + c = 0$

a = 4.9, b = 10.32 and c = 1.45

We would solve the above quadratic equation by using the quadratic equation formula;

$x = \frac{-b\; \pm \;\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

Substituting the values, we have;

$t = \frac{-10.32\; \pm \;\sqrt{10.32^2\; - \;4(4.9)(1.45)}}{2(4.9)}\\\\t = \frac{-10.32\; \pm \;\sqrt{106.5024\; - \;28.42}}{9.8}\\\\t = \frac{-10.32\; \pm \;\sqrt{78.0824}}{9.8}\\\\t = \frac{-10.32\; \pm \;8.84}{9.8}\\\\t = \frac{-10.32\; + \;8.84}{9.8}\\\\t = \frac{1.48}{9.8}$

Time, t = 0.151 seconds.

Therefore, it will take the quarter 0.151 seconds to reach the ground.
