<span>suppose earth is a soid sphere which will attract the body towards its centre.So, acc. to law of gravitation force on the body will be,
F=G*m1m2/R^2
but we now that F=ma
and here accleration(a)=accleration due to gravity(g),so
force applied by earth on will also be mg
replace above F in formula by mg and solve,
F=G*mE*m/R^2 ( here mE is mass of earth and m is mass of body)
mg=G*mEm/R^2
so,
g =G*mE/R^2</span>

A football is kicked into the air from an initial height of 4 feet. The height, in feet, of the football above the ground is giv

kakasveta [241]

Answer: 0.5 seconds or 2.625 seconds

Explanation:

At t = 0, The ball is 4 ft above the ground.

The height of the football varies with time in the following way:

s(t) = -16 t² + 50 t + 4

we need to find the time in which the height would of the football would be 25 ft:

⇒25 = -16 t² + 50 t + 4
