A red ball is thrown down with an initial speed of 1.1 m/s from a height of 28 meters above the ground. Then, 0.5 seconds after

the red ball is thrown, a blue ball is thrown upward with an initial speed of 24.4 m/s, from a height of 0.9 meters above the ground. The force of gravity due to the earth results in the balls each having a constant downward acceleration of 9.81 m/s^2. How long after the red ball is thrown are the two balls in the air at the same height?

Answer:0.931 s

Explanation:

Given

initial speed=1.1 m/s

height(h)=28 m

after 0.5 sec blue ball is thrown upward

Velocity of blue ball is 24.4 m/s

height with which blue ball is launched is 0.9 m

Total distance between two balls is 28-0.9=27.1 m

Let in t time red ball travels a distance of x m

x=1.1t+\frac{gt^2}{2} --------1

for blue ball

27.1-x=24.4t-\frac{g(t-0.5)^2}{2} -----2

Add 1 & 2

we get

27.1=24.4t+1.1t+\frac{g(2t-0.5)(0.5)}{2}

27.1=25.5t+g\frac{4t-1}{8}

t=0.931 s

after 0.931 sec two ball will be at same height

From the window of a house that is placed 15 m
kow [346]

Answer:

a) 52.915 m

b) The vertical velocity is approximately 21.092 m/s

The resultant velocity is approximately 26.5 m/s

Explanation:

a) The height of the window in the house from which the water was thrown = 15 m

The speed of the stream of water thrown = 20 m/s

The angle at which the water was thrown = 37° over the horizontal

The acceleration due to gravity, g = 10 m/s²

a) The distance from the base of the house at which the water will fall is given as follows;

y = y₀ + u·t·sin(θ) + 1/2·g·t²

Where;

y = The vertical height reached    

u = The initial velocity

t = Time of flight

From the point the steam of water is thrown, we get;

y₀ = 15 m

Therefore;

y = 15 + 20 × t × sin(37°) - 1/2 × 10 × t²

y = 15 + 20 × t × sin(37°) - 5 × t²

When y = 0, Ground level, we get

0 = 15 + 20 × t × sin(37°) - 5 × t²

5·t² - 20×sin(37°)×t -15 = 0

∴ t = (20 ×sin(37°) ± √((-20 × ·sin(37°))² - 4 × (5) × (-15)))/(2 × 5)

t ≈ 3.3128302, or t ≈ 0.906

Therefore, the time of flight of the water, t ≈ 3.3128302 seconds

The distance from the base of the house at which the water will fall = The horizontal distance travelled by the water, x

x = u·cos(θ)×t

∴ x = 20 × cos(37°) × 3.3128302 ≈ 52.915

The distance from the base of the house at which the water will fall = x ≈ 52.915 m

b) The velocity at which the water will reach the ground, 'v', is given as follows;

The vertical velocity, v_y = u·sin(θ)·t - g·t

At the ground, t ≈ 3.3128302 seconds

∴ v_y = 20 × sin(37) - 10 × 3.3128302 ≈ -21.092

The vertical velocity at which the water will reach the ground, v_y ≈ 21.092 m/s (downwards)

The resultant velocity, v = √(v_y² + vₓ²)

∴ v = √(21.092² + (0 × cos(37°))²) ≈ 26.5

The resultant velocity at which the water will reach the ground, v ≈ 26.5 m/s.

Acar accelerates from 4 meters/second to 16 meters/second in 4 seconds. The car's acceleration is
s2008m [1.1K]

To understand this question, you need to understand the concept of acceleration first. Have you ever been in a car and noticed that it was getting faster and faster? That "speeding up" of the car is known as acceleration! Acceleration is essentially the rate at which you speed up.

Okay, so we now know what acceleration is. What are its units? The unit of acceleration is the change in velocity over a period of time: \frac{∆v}{t}

If you haven't learned about velocity yet, just think about it as speed for now. The funny-looking triangle, ∆, is a symbol for "the change of." For example, if I started walking at 3 \frac{feet}{second} then sped up to 5 \frac{feet}{second}, then the change in my speed would be 2 \frac{feet}{second}, because I started walking 2 \frac{feet}{second} faster!

Okay, enough with all the explanations. Hopefully, you understand the units now. Let's take a look at the question. A car accelerates from 4 \frac{meters}{second} to 16 \frac{meters}{second}  in 4 seconds. What would the acceleration be? Let's set up an equation:

a = \frac{∆v}{t}

a is the acceleration, ∆v is the change in velocity, and t is the time elapsed.

Now, let's plug in our values! ∆v is the change in velocity, and to find that we simply have to subtract 16 \frac{meters}{second} by 4 \frac{meters}{second}. That makes sense, right? Back to the equation.

a = \frac{∆v}{t}
a = \frac{16-4}{4}

(16 - 4 is the change in velocity, and 4 is the number of seconds the car was accelerating)

a = \frac{12}{4}

a = 3 (\frac{meters}{second^{2}})

We have our answer! The car's acceleration is 3 meters per second^{2}.

(You might be thinking: Wait. Meters per second squared? The reason for that is because acceleration is the rate at which the speed increases! That makes the unit \frac{\frac{meters}{second}}{second}, which can be simplified down to \frac{meters}{second^{2} })

Let me know if you need clarification on anything I explained here!
