A ball thrown vertically is caught by the thrower after 5.1s. Find the maximum height the ball reaches.

Physics

Answer:

h = 31.9 m

Explanation:

Since, the ball took 5.1 s in the air. Hence, the time to reach maximum height will be equal to the half of this value:

t = 5.1 s /2 = 2.55 s

Now, we use 1st equation of motion between the time of throwing and the time of reaching maximum height:

Vf = Vi + gt

where,

Vf = Final Velocity = 0 m/s (since, ball momentarily stops at highest point)

Vi = Initial Velocity = ?

g = - 9.8 m/s² (negative sign for upward motion)

Therefore,

0 m/s = Vi + (-9.8 m/s²)(2.55 s)

Vi = 24.99 m/s

Now, we use second equation of motion for height (h):

h = Vi t + (0.5)gt²

h = (24.99 m/s)(2.55 s) + (0.5)(-9.8 m/s²)(2.55 s)²

h = 63.7 m - 31.8 m

<u>h = 31.9 m</u>

Which shows the correct lens equation? The inverse of f equals the inverse of d Subscript o Baseline times the inverse of d Subs
musickatia [10]

Answer:

The inverse of f equals the inverse of d Subscript o Baseline plus the inverse of d Subscript I Baseline.

Explanation:

The lens equation shows the relation among focal length of the lens, image distance and object distance. It can be expressed as:

  \frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{d_{o} } + \frac{1}{d_{I} }

where: f is the focal length of the lens, d_{o} is the object distance to the lens and d_{I} is the image distance to the lens.

The lens equation can be used to determine the unknown value among the variables f , d_{o} and d_{o}.

a motorcycle starts from rest covers 200 meter distance in 6 second calculate final velocity and acceleration​
Ivanshal [37]

Explanation:

s = ut + 1/2 a t^2

200 = 0 * 6 + 1/2 * a * (6)^2

200 = 1/2 * a * 36

200 = 18 a

a = 200/18

a= 11.1m/sec^2

v = u + at

v = 0 + 11.1 * 6

v = 66.6m/s

hope it helps you

By what factor would your weight be multiplied if the earth were1/2 as massavise and the diameter was unchanged
Nutka1998 [239]
<span>Let F be the force of gravity, G be the gravitational constant, M be the mass of the earth, m your mass and r the radius of the earth, then: 

F = G(Mm / (4(pi)*r^2)) 

The above expression gives the force that you feel on the earth's surface, as it is today! 

Let us now double the mass of the earth and decrease its diameter to half its original size. 

This is the same as replacing M with 2M and r with r/2. 

Now the gravitational force (F' ) on the new earth's surface is given by: 

F' = G(2Mm / (4(pi)(r/2)^2)) = 2G(Mm / ((1/4)*4(pi)*r^2)) = 8G(Mm / (4(pi)*r^2)) = 8F 

So: 

F' = 8F 

This implies that the force that you would feel pulling you down (your weight) would increase by 800%! 

You would be 8 times heavier on this "new" earth!</span>
