The equation that relates distance, velocities, acceleration, and time is,
d = V₀t + 0.5gt²
where d is distance,
V₀ is the initial velocity,
t is time, and
g is the acceleration due to gravity (equal to 9.8 m/s²)
(1) Dropped rock,
(3 x 10² m ) = 0(t) + 0.5(9.8 m/s²)(t²)
The value of t from this equation is 24.73 s
(2) Thrown rock with V₀ = 26 m/s
(3 x 10² m) = (26)(t) + 0.5(9.8 m/s²)(t²)
The value of t from the equation is 5.61 s
The difference between the tim,
difference = 24.73 s - 5.61 s
difference = 19.12 s
<em>ANSWER: 19.12 s</em>
Explanation:
Acceleration is the change in speed over a given time period
Momentum = mass x velocity
12 = 4 x v | ÷ both sides by 4
12 ÷ 4 =v
v= 3 m/s
