Answer: (a) t = 5.44 sec
(b) vf = 53.31 m/s
(c) s = 5.0m
Explanation: from the question, given data
the Height of the tower, h = 145m
from question
(a)
the initial velocity, v₁ = 0 m/s
s = v₁t + 1/2 gt²
-145 m = 0(t) + 1/2 (-9.8t²)
t² = 145/4.9
t² = 29.59
t = 5.44 sec
(b)
the speed of the sphere at the bottom of the tower is
vf² = vi² +2as
vf² = 0 + 2(-9.8 × -145)
vf² = 2842
vf = 53.31 m/s
(c)
when caught, the sphere experiences a deceleration of;
a = -29.0g
the time it would take to decelerate becomes;
vf = vi + at
0 = (53.31) + (-29 ×9.8)t
where t = 53.31 / 284.2
t = 0.1876 sec
∴ the distance travelled during the deceleration becomes;
vf² = vi² + 2as
s = (vf² - vi²) / 2a
s = (0 - 53.31²) / 2×-29×9.8
s = -2841.9561 / -568.4
s = 4.99 ≈ 5.0m
i hope this helps, cheers
Answer:
Explanation:
They have the same kinetic energy
<span>A van is traveling on a road at a speed of 55 km/h relative to a
stationary observer on the side of the road. A girl sitting near the
driver of the van throws a paper airplane to a boy at the back of the
van with a speed of 2 km/h relative to the girl, the boy, and the van.
The speed of the paper airplane, relative to the same stationary observer
on the side of the road, is (55 - 2) = 53 km/h. No rounding is necessary.</span>
-- pick a planet from the table
-- take it's mass and radius from the table, and plug them into the big ugly formula above the table
-- do the arithmetic with your pencil or your calculator. The answer is the acceleration of gravity on the planet you picked. Write it down so you don't lose it.
-- do the same for the other 3 planets in the table
