You drop a ball from a window located on an upper floor of a building. It strikes the ground with speed v. You now repeat the dr
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

 y = y₀ (1 - ½ g y₀ / v²)

Explanation:

This is a free fall problem. Let's start with the ball that is released from the window, with initial velocity vo = 0 and a height of the window i

          y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

          y = y₀ - ½ g t²

for the ball thrown from the ground with initial velocity v₀₂ = v

         y₂ = y₀₂ + v₀₂ t - ½ g t²

     

in this case y₀ = 0

         y₂2 = v t - ½ g t²

at the point where the two balls meet, they have the same height

         y = y₂

         y₀ - ½ g t² = vt - ½ g t²

         y₀i = v t

         t = y₀ / v

since we have the time it takes to reach the point, we can substitute in either of the two equations to find the height

         y = y₀ - ½ g t²

         y = y₀ - ½ g (y₀ / v)²

         y = y₀ - ½ g y₀² / v²

        y = y₀ (1 - ½ g y₀ / v²)

with this expression we can find the meeting point of the two balls

Explain why Large change in temperature makes heat flow fast and a small change does not.
jekas [21]

Answer: Because of the amount of energy

Explanation: Heat is an energy, and small amounts of it does not effect large areas, whereas a very large blast of heat energy can greatly effect the air
