Answer:
The new height the ball will reach = (1/4) of the initial height it reached.
Explanation:
The energy stored in any spring material is given as (1/2)kx²
This energy is converted to potential energy, mgH, of the ball at its maximum height.
If the initial height reached is H
And the initial compression of the spring = x
So, mgH = (1/2)kx²
H = kx²/2mg
The new compression, x₁ = x/2
New energy of loaded spring = (1/2)kx₁²
And the new potential energy = mgH₁
mgH₁ = (1/2)kx₁²
But x₁ = x/2
mgH₁ = (1/2)k(x/2)² = kx²/8
H₁ = kx²/8mg = H/4 (provided all the other parameters stay constant)
Answer:
Maximum height of rocket = 2538.74 m
Explanation:
We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²
For first 5 seconds
s = 0 x 5 + 0.5 x 40 x 5² = 500 m
Now let us find out time after 5 seconds rocket move upward.
We have the equation of motion v = u + at
After 5 seconds velocity of rocket
v = 0 + 40 x 5 = 200 m/s
After 5 seconds the velocity reduces 9.8m/s per second due to gravity.
Time of flying after 5 seconds

Distance traveled in this 20.38 s
s = 200 x 20.38 - 0.5 x 9.81 x 20.38² = 2038.74 m
Maximum height of rocket = 500 +2038.74 = 2538.74 m
The answer is well log data, it is a detailed log of information taken from a borehole which geologist used to study geological formations of the earth's layer taken from samples returned from the borehole which was dugged.
