Answer:
The three types of thermal expansions are Linear expansion , Superficial expansion and Cubical expansion
Explanation:
an object's gravitational potential energy Eg is m×g×h where:
m=mass
g=9.8m/s²
h=height relative to the closest object below it (because it cannot potentially fall through it
so Eg = 15×9.8×5=735J
a) we can answer the first part of this by recognizing the player rises 0.76m, reaches the apex of motion, and then falls back to the ground we can ask how
long it takes to fall 0.13 m from rest: dist = 1/2 gt^2 or t=sqrt[2d/g] t=0.175
s this is the time to fall from the top; it would take the same time to travel
upward the final 0.13 m, so the total time spent in the upper 0.15 m is 2x0.175
= 0.35s
b) there are a couple of ways of finding thetime it takes to travel the bottom 0.13m first way: we can use d=1/2gt^2 twice
to solve this problem the time it takes to fall the final 0.13 m is: time it
takes to fall 0.76 m - time it takes to fall 0.63 m t = sqrt[2d/g] = 0.399 s to
fall 0.76 m, and this equation yields it takes 0.359 s to fall 0.63 m, so it
takes 0.04 s to fall the final 0.13 m. The total time spent in the lower 0.13 m
is then twice this, or 0.08s
