An object is thrown straight up with an initial velocity of 10 m/s, and there is an air resistance force causing an acceleration

of 3 m/s2 opposite the direction of motion. With what speed does the object return to the ground?

Answer:

Vf= 7.29 m/s

Explanation:

Two force act on the object:

1) Gravity

2) Air resistance

Upward motion:

Initial velocity = Vi= 10 m/s

Final velocity = Vf= 0 m/s

Gravity acting downward =  g = -9.8 m/s²

Air resistance acting downward = a₁ = - 3 m/s²

Net acceleration = a = -(g + a₁ ) = - ( 9.8 + 3 ) = - 12.8 m/s²

( Acceleration is consider negative if it is in opposite direction of velocity )

Now

2as = Vf² - Vi²

⇒ 2 * (-12.8) *s = 0 - 10²

⇒-25.6 *s = -100

⇒ s = 100/ 25.6

⇒ s = 3.9 m

Downward motion:

Vi= 0 m/s

s = 3.9 m

Gravity acting downward =  g = 9.8 m/s²

Air resistance acting upward = a₁ = - 3 m/s²

Net acceleration = a = g - a₁  =  9.8 - 3  = 6.8 m/s²

Now

2as = Vf² - Vi²

⇒ 2 * 6.8 * 3.9 = Vf² - 0

⇒ Vf² = 53. 125

⇒ Vf= 7.29 m/s

A stone is thrown horizontally with an initial speed of 10 m/s from the edge of a cliff. A stopwatch measures the stone's trajec
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

The height of the cliff is 90.60 meters.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial horizontal speed of the stone, u = 10 m/s

Initial vertical speed of the stone, u' = 0 (as there is no motion in vertical direction)

The time taken by the stone from the top of the cliff to the bottom to be 4.3 s, t = 4.3 s

Let h is the height of the cliff. Using the second equation of motion in vertical direction to find it. It is given by :

h=u't+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

h=\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

h=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times (4.3)^2

h = 90.60 meters

So, the height of the cliff is 90.60 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

I should be active for 15 hours to meet the physical activity requirement.

Explanation:

Since time dilates in moving objects, we use the formula t = t₀/√(1 - β²) where t = time in space vehicle, t₀ = time on earth = 9 hours and β = v/c where v = speed of space vehicle = 0.8c.

So, t = t₀/√(1 - β²)

t = 9/√(1 - (v/c)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.8c/c)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.8)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.64)

= 9/√0.36

= 9/0.6

= 15 hr

So, according to a timer on the space vehicle, I should be active for 15 hours to meet the physical activity requirement.
