What does d=1/2gt^2 solve?

5 0

Physics is a bit difficult, I try to explain.

You know that the acceleration formula (to find the distance) is d=1/2at^2, when you have no initial distance and no initial speed.

d=1/2gt^2 is the formula for the Free Fall (the only acceleration that acts on the object is the Gravity Acceleration) and since we consider the y-axis positive when oriented up, it solves from ground to peak (object thrown upward).

The formula when the object goes downwards is d=v0t - 1/2gt^2

Hope it's clear, in case leave a comment.

I assume you need to solve for g?
12g + 6 = 78
- 6
12g = 72
÷ 12
g = 6
I hope this helps! Let me know if you want me to explain anything :)

A bowl contains candies of the same size in three flavors: orange, strawberry, and pineapple. If the probability of randomly pul

andre [41]

The pro<span>bability of randomly pulling out a pineapple candy would be 5 over 8. Because there are 8 candies total (this is the denominator) and only 3 flavors, you just simply add the two given candies, which is 2 + 1 = 3, and subtract the sum (which is 3) by 8. Therefore, 8 - 3 = 5 and you put that as the numerator and the total number of candies, 8, as the denominator. </span>
