Answer:

32.46m/s

Explanation:

Hello,

To solve this exercise we must be clear that the ball moves with constant acceleration with the value of gravity = 9.81m / S ^ 2

A body that moves with constant acceleration means that it moves in "a uniformly accelerated motion", which means that if the velocity is plotted with respect to time we will find a line and its slope will be the value of the acceleration, it determines how much it changes the speed with respect to time.

When performing a mathematical demonstration, it is found that the equations that define this movement are the follow

\frac {Vf^{2}-Vo^2}{2.a} =X

Where

Vf = final speed

Vo = Initial speed =7.3m/S

A = g=acceleration =9.81m/s^2

X = displacement =51m}

solving for Vf

Vf=\sqrt{Vo^2+2gX}\\Vf=\sqrt{7.3^2+2(9.81)(51)}=32.46m/s

the speed with the ball hits the ground is 32.46m/s

Answer:

The speed will be 33 m/s.

Explanation:

The equations for height and velocity of the ball are as follows:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

v = v0 + g · t

Where:

y = height at time "t".

y0 = initial height.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive)

v = velocity at time "t".

Let´s place the origin of the frame of reference on the ground and consider the upward direction as positive.

First, let´s find the time it takes the ball to reach the ground:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

When the ball hits the ground, y = 0. Then:

0 = 51 m - 7.3 m/s · t - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² + t²

Solving the quadratic equation:

t = 2.6 s

Now, with this time, we can calculate the velocity at the moment when the ball hits the ground:

v = v0 + g · t

v = -7.3 m/s - 9.8 m/s² · 2.6 s

v = -33 m/s

The speed will be 33 m/s.

Which of the following would decrease your carbon footprint?
salantis [7]
The third option seems correct. Using any bag more than once will help in decreasing the carbon foot print.

This isds beause, if you use paper bag once only, then paper bag is being utilised and more and more paper is being used. So the best way is to use the bag more than once, whichever bag u are using.
