The height (in meters) of a projectile shot vertically upward from a point 2 m above ground level with an initial velocity of 22

.5 m/s is h = 2 + 22.5t − 4.9t2 after t seconds. (round your answers to two decimal places.) (a) find the velocity after 2 s and after 4 s. v(2) = 2.9 m/s v(4) = -16.7 m/s (b) when does the projectile reach its maximum height? 2.295918367 s (c) what is the maximum height? 27.82908163 m (d) when does it hit the ground? 53.62087732 s (e) with what velocity does it hit the ground?

1) The law of motion of the projectile is
h(t) = 2+22.5 t-4.9 t^2
To find the velocity, we should compute the derivative of h(t):
v(t)=h'(t)=22.5-2\cdot 4.9t=22.5-9.8t
So now we can calculate the speed at t=2 s and t=4 s:
v(2.0s)=22.5-9.8\cdot2.0 =2.9 m/s
v(4.0s)=22.5-9.8\cdot 4.0s=-16.7 m/s
The negative sign in the second speed means the projectile has already reached its maximum height and it is now going downward.

2) The projectile reaches its maximum height when the speed is equal to zero:
v(t)=0
So we have
22.5-9.8 t=0
And solving this we find
t=2.30 s

3) To find the maximum height, we take h(t) and we just replace t with the time at which the projectile reaches the maximum height, i.e. t=2.30 s:
h(2.30 s)=2+22.5\cdot 2.30 -4.9 \cdot (2.30s)^2 = 27.83 m

4) The time at which the projectile hits the ground is the time at which the height is zero: h(t)=0. So, this translates into
2+22.5t -4.9 t^2 = 0
This is a second-order equation, and if we solve it we get two solutions: the first solution is negative, so we can ignore it since it's physically meaningless; the second solution is
t=4.68 s
And this is the time at which the projectile hits the ground.

5) The velocity of the projectile when it hits the ground is the velocity at time t=4.68 s:
v(4.68 s)=22.5-9.8\cdot 4.68 =-23.36  m/s
with negative sign, because it is directed downward.

A 25kg box fell 200m with an acceleration of 5 m/s2. with what force did it hit the floor when it landed?
Marizza181 [45]
According to Newton's Second Law of motion, the net force acting on the object is equal to its mass multiplied by its acceleration. In formula, it is written as

Net Force =mass * acceleration
Net force = 25 kg * 5m/s^2
Net force = 125 Newtons

The gravitational force experienced by Earth due to the Moon is ________ the gravitational force experienced by the Moon due to
Vsevolod [243]

The gravitational force experienced by Earth due to the Moon is <u>equal to </u>the gravitational force experienced by the Moon due to Earth.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The force that attracts any two objects/bodies with mass towards each other is defined as gravitational force. Generally the gravitational force is attractive, as it always pulls the masses together and never pushes them apart.

The gravitational force can be calculated effectively using the following formula: F=GMmr^2  

where “G” is the gravitational constant.

Though gravity has the ability to pull the masses together, it is the weakest force in the nature.

The mass of the Earth and moon varies, but still the gravitational force felt by the Earth and Moon are alike.

The figure shows three displacement vectors, which are
aleksley [76]

Answer:

the correct answer is D

Explanation:

In this exercise, the vectors are in the same west-east direction, so we can assume that the positive direction is east and perform the algebraic sum.

       R = δ + ε

where

       δ = 2.0 m

       ε = 7.0 m

the positive sign indicates that it is heading east

        R = 2.0 + 7.0

        R = 9.0 m

the direction is east

the correct answer is D
