<span>If "m" balls are thrown per second, the time taken for a ball to reach its maximum height will be 1/m seconds. How to get this? See that the next ball is thrown only when the previous ball reaches its maximum height. If 'm' balls were thrown in 1 second this means that each ball was attaining its maximum ht in 1/m seconds. This was the main part. Now we can proceed to find maximum height in 2 ways- a) We know for upward journey ,
t=1/m
  a=-g
  v=u-gt
  final velocity ,v = 0 (at highest point) u
=gt = g/m
  Now we can apply h=ut-1/2 gt^2
  Putting the values of u,t, we will get h= g/2m^2
  b) The second method uses a trick that time taken to reach the maximum ht is same as time taken to fall down. So, we will now consider the downward journey of ball which also takes 1/m seconds We apply
 h=ut+1/2gt^2
Here u=0 ,t=1/m
We will again get ,
h=g/2m^2</span>

One speed skater starts across a frozen lake at an average speed of 8 m/s. Ten seconds later, a second speed skater starts from
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

40 s

Explanation:

After 10 seconds, the first skater would have a 8m/s * 10s = 80 m head start

Let t be the number of seconds after the second skater starts will the second skater overtake the first skater

The distance traveled by the first skater after t seconds is

s_1 = v_1t = 8t

Similarly the distance traveled by the 2nd skater after t seconds is

s_2 = v_2t = 10t

Since the 2nd skater catches up to the 1st one after 80 m behind, the distance traveled by the 2nd one must be 80m greater than the distance of the 1st skater

s_2 = s_1 + 80

We can substitute s_1 = 8t, s_2 = 10t

10t = 8t + 80

2t = 80

t = 80 / 2 = 40 s

Sound travels about 750 miles per hour. if you stand in a canyon and sound a horn, you will hear an echo. suppose it takes about
diamong [38]
The answer to this question would be:3850ft

To answer this question, you need to convert the speed velocity from miles/hour into feet/second. The equation would be: 750 miles/hour x 5280 foot/mile x 1 hour/3600second = 1100 ft/s
Then multiply the time with the velocity= 3.5 second x 1100 ft/s= 3850ft

A 200.0 kg piano is elevated by a crane to a height of 10.0 meters above a sidewalk. If the rope holding the piano breaks, what
Nitella [24]
All that business about the crane and the rope and the falling
is only there to confuse us.

The piano ended up 5 meters above the ground.

           Potential energy = (mass) (gravity) (height)

                                   = (200 kg) (9.81 m/s²) (5 m)

                                   = (200 · 9.81 · 5)  (kg-m²/s²)

                                   =   9,810 joules   .
