Answer:

37.8 m

Explanation:

At point 0, the ball is at height y₀.

At point 1, the ball is at height 30 m.

At point 2, the ball is at height 0 m.

Given:

y₁ = 30 m

y₂ = 0 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = -10 m/s²

t₂ − t₁ = 1.5 s

Find: y₀

Use constant acceleration equation.

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

Evaluate at point 1.

y₁ = y₀ + v₀ t₁ + ½ at₁²

30 m = y₀ + (0 m/s) t₁ + ½ (-10 m/s²) t₁²

30 = y₀ − 5t₁²

Evaluate at point 2.

y₂ = y₀ + v₀ t₂ + ½ at₂²

0 m = y₀ + (0 m/s) t₂ + ½ (-10 m/s²) t₂²

0 = y₀ − 5t₂²

y₀ = 5t₂²

Substitute:

y₀ = 5 (1.5 + t₁)²

y₀ = 5 (2.25 + 3t₁ + t₁²)

y₀ = 11.25 + 15t₁ + 5t₁²

30 = 11.25 + 15t₁ + 5t₁² − 5t₁²

30 = 11.25 + 15t₁

t₁ = 1.25

30 = y₀ − 5t₁²

30 = y₀ − 5(1.25)²

y₀ ≈ 37.8

How we can see different colors by our eyes?
IrinaVladis [17]

I DID A Science PROJECT ON THIS >:)))

basically light travels into the eye to the retina located on the back of the eye. the retina is covered withe millions of light sensitive cells called Rods and cones. when these cells detect light they send signals to the brain that help detect color.

the color of an object is determined by the wavelengths of light that it reflects. it's determined by the arrangement of electrons in the atoms of that substance that will absorb and re-emit photons of particular energies according to quantum laws.
