A boy throws a snowball straight up in the air with an initial speed of 4.50 ft/s from a position 4.00 ft above the ground. The

IgorC [24]

Answer:

a) 0.658 seconds

b) 0.96 inches

Explanation:

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=4.5-32.1\times t\\\Rightarrow \frac{-4.5}{-32.1}=t\\\Rightarrow t=0.14 \s$

Time taken by the ball to reach the highest point is 0.14 seconds

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=4.5\times 0.14+\frac{1}{2}\times -32.1\times 0.14^2\\\Rightarrow s=0.315\ ft$

The highest point reached by the snowball above its release point is 0.315 ft

Total height the snowball will fall is 4+0.315 = 4.315 ft

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 4.315=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 32.1\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{4.315\times 2}{32.1}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.518\ s$

The snowball will reach the bank at 0.14+0.518 = 0.658 seconds after it has been thrown

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+32.1\times 0.518\\\Rightarrow v=16.62\ ft/s$

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-16.62^2}{2\times -100\times 3.28}\\\Rightarrow s=0.42\ ft$

The snowball goes 0.5-0.42 = 0.08 ft = 0.96 inches

A ball is thrown straight up into the air and passes a window 3 seconds after being released. It passes the same window on its w

melomori [17]

The initial velocity of the ball is 55.125 m/s.

<h3>Initial velocity of the ball</h3>

The initial velocity of the ball is calculated as follows;

During upward motion

h = vi - ¹/₂gt²

h = vi - 0.5(9.8)(3²)

h = vi - 44.1 ----------------- (1)

During downward motion

h = vi + ¹/₂gt²

h = 0 + 0.5(9.8)(1.5)²

h = 11.025 ----------- (2)

solve (1) and (2) together, to determine the initial velocity of the ball

11.025 = vi - 44.1

vi = 11.025 + 44.1

vi = 55.125 m/s

Thus, the initial velocity of the ball is 55.125 m/s.
