The ball took half of the total time ... 4 seconds ... to reach its highest
point, where it began to fall back down to the point of release.
At its highest point, its velocity changed from upward to downward.
At that instant, its velocity was zero.
The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s². That means that an object that's
acted on only by gravity gains 9.8 m/s of downward speed every second.
-- If the object is falling downward, it moves 9.8 m/s faster every second.
-- If the object is tossed upward, it moves 9.8 m/s slower every second.
The ball took 4 seconds to lose all of its upward speed. So it must have
been thrown upward at (4 x 9.8 m/s) = 39.2 m/s .
(That's about 87.7 mph straight up. Somebody had an amazing pitching arm.)
Adjust the height of the wooden rod so that it just touches the surface of the water. Switch on the lamp and motor and adjust the speed of the motor until low frequency waves can be clearly observed... Count the number of waves passing a point in ten seconds then Divide by ten to record frequency.
Solution= The answer is true
It is weight, if I understand your question.
