Answer:  t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }

Explanation: The time taken by the object to reach the ground depends up on the vertical velocity of the object.

The object horizontal velocity component only moves the object in forward direction and does not have any effect vertically

as the object is launched horizontally its initial vertical velocity is zero

u_y=0

the object experiences downward fall due to gravitational acceleration only since there is no air resistance

therefore a=g

the distance covered =s=h

now the kinematic equation could be used

h=u_yt+0.5at^2\\h=0+0.5gt^2\\h=\frac{gt^2}{2}\\t^2=\frac{2h}{g} \\t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }

You and a highway patrolman are driving at constant speeds in opposite directions on a straight highway. The patrolman is drivin
kompoz [17]

Answer:  75 mph

Explanation:

The Relative Speed for a mobile is equal to the diference between the object and the observer:

Relative Speed (Rs) = Object's Velocity  - Observer's Velocity

Thinking on those terms, we would need to have a universal observer to do any understandable measurement on daily basics. This is why we all use earth as a Static Observer for every measurement we do everyday.

Using Earth as an observer, the Velocity for the Patrolman is:

Patrolman Velocity (Vp) = 60 mph

Because the radar gun does measure the Relative Speed for the object, which is 135 mph, we need to work with the equation to find the Velocity using Earth as a reference.

Object's Relative Velocity = Object's Velocity - Patrolman's Velocity

Object's Velocity = Object's Relative Velocity + Patrolman's Velocity

We need to keep in mind, the Patrolman is going on the opposite direction. Because of this the sign for his velocity should be negative.

Object's Velocity = 135 mph + ( -60 mph)

Object's Velocity = 135 mph - 60 mph

Object's Velocity = 75 mph

If you make multiple measurements of your height, you are likely to find that the results vary by nearly half an inch in either
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Height h= 1.7 m

Explanation:

Supposing we have to find height in meter.

1 feet = 0.3048 m

1 inch = 0.0254 m

Given that:

5 feet

= 5×0.3048

= 1.524 m

and 7 inch = 7×0.0254= 0.1778 m

Therefore total height of a man in meter

5 feet 7 inch = 1.5424+0.1778 =1.7 m

Height h= 1.7 m
