Answer:

v_{y_0} = \frac{\frac{g}{2}t(t - 2\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}})}{\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} - t}

Explanation:

We will apply the equations of kinematics to both stones separately.

First stone:

Let us denote the time spent after the second stone is thrown as 'T'.

y - y_0 = v_{y_0}(t+T) + \frac{1}{2}a(t+T)^2\\0 - h = 0 + \frac{1}{2}(-g)(t+T)^2\\(t+T)^2 = \frac{2h}{g}\\T = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}-t

Second stone:

y - y_0 = v_{y_0}T + \frac{1}{2}aT^2\\0 - h = v_{y_0}T -\frac{1}{2}gT^2\\-h = v_{y_0}(\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} - t) - \frac{g}{2}(\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} - t)^2\\-h = v_{y_0}(\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} - t) - \frac{g}{2}(\frac{2h}{g} + t^2 - 2t\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}})\\-h = v_{y_0}\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} - v_{y_0}t - h -\frac{g}{2}t^2 + gt\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}\\v_{y_0}(\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} - t) = \frac{g}{2}t^2 - gt\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}\\v_{y_0} = \frac{\frac{g}{2}t(t - 2\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}})}{\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} - t}

a scale model of the solar system where 50 cm represents 1.0x10 to the fifth km is actual distance what would be the dimension o
Fofino [41]

The distance between Mars and the Sun in the scale model would be 1140 m

Explanation:

In this scale model, we have:

x_1 = 50 cm represents an actual distance of

d_1 = 1.0\cdot 10^5 km

The actual distance between Mars and the Sun is 228 million km, therefore

d_2=228\cdot 10^6 km

On the scale model, this would corresponds to a distance of x_2.

Therefore, we can write the following proportion:

\frac{x_1}{d_1}=\frac{x_2}{d_2}

And solving for x_2, we find:

x_2=\frac{x_1 d_2}{d_1}=\frac{(50)(228\cdot 10^6)}{1\cdot 10^5}=1.14\cdot 10^5 cm = 1140 m
