I believe that formula is incomplete, if it is derived from the kinematic equations.

The full formula being s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

where:

s is the displacement (or how far she travelled in your question)

u is the initial velocity, which I think can be assumed to be 0 m/s

t is the time taken which is 120 s

a is the acceleration due to gravity which points down in a negative y direction, which is -9.8 m/s^{2}

Since initial velocity, u, is assumed to be 0 m/s the equation becomes:

s=\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

Substitute in a = -9.8m/s^{2}  and t = 120 s and calculate your answer.

Tell me what you calculate the answer to be (don't forget units) and I'll let you know if it's right.

Why football players boots have spikes their sole<br>Give short and sweet answer​
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

it helps with balance and speed.

"The football shoes have spikes or studs because the studs or spikes provides larger frictional force than normal shoes while running on the grass. The studs prevents player from slipping on the grass and help to run faster and change direction quickly without slipping"

A circular dartboard has a radius of 2 meters and a red circle in the center. Assume you hit the target at a random point. For w
Sati [7]

Answer:

1.549 m

Explanation:

Given:

The radius of the circular board, r = 2 m

The probability of hitting the red is given as 0.6

Now, this probability of hitting the red can be conclude as

0.6 = (Area of red)/ (Total area of the board)

Total area of the board = πr² = π × 2²

let the radius of the red area be R

thus, area of red circle, = πR²

on substituting the value of the area, we have

0.6 = (πR²)/ (π × 2²)

or

R² = 2.4

or

R = 1.549 m

Thus, the radius of the red circle is 1.549 m

A projectile is launched vertically at 100 m/s. If air resistance can be ignored, at what speed will it return to its initial le
eduard
<h2>Speed with which it return to its initial level is 100 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

Initial velocity, u = 100 m/s  

Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²  

Final velocity, v = ?

Displacement, s = 0 m  

Substituting  

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 100² + 2 x -9.81 x 0

v² = 100²

v = ±100 m/s

+100 m/s is initial velocity and -100 m/s is final velocity.

Speed with which it return to its initial level is 100 m/s
