Total energy before the toss:
E_1 = \frac{1}{2} mv_1^2 + mgh_1

Total energy at the roof:
 E_2 = \frac{1}{2} mv_2^2 + mgh_2

Energy must be conserved so :
E_1 = E_2 \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} mv_1^2 + mgh_1 = \frac{1}{2} mv_2^2 + mgh_2 \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} m (v_1^2 - v_2^2) = mg(h_2 - h_1) \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} (v_1^2 - v_2^2) = g(h_2 - h_1) \\ \\ v_1^2 - v_2^2 = 2g(h_2 - h_1)

If v₁ is the initial velocity and v₂ is the final velocity, which is zero at the roof:
v_1^2 = 2g(h_2 - h_1) \\  \\ v_1 =  \sqrt{2g(h_2 - h_1)}

v_1 =  \sqrt{(2)(9.81 \frac{m}{s^2} )(15m - 1.6m)} = 16,2  \frac{m}{s}

a baseball is hit 3 feet above ground level at 100 feet per second and at an angle of 45 with respect to the ground. (g=32 feet/
LiRa [457]

Answer:

hmax=81ft

Explanation:

Maximum height of the object is the highest vertical position along its trajectory.

The vertical velocity is equal to 0 (Vy = 0)

0=V_{y}-g*t=v_{0}*sin(\alpha)-g*th\\

we isolate th (needed to reach the maximum height hmax)

th = \frac{v_{0}*sin(\alpha)}{g}

The formula describing vertical distance is:

y = Vy * t-g* t^{2} / 2

So, given y = hmax and t = th, we can join those two equations together:

hmax = Vy* th-g*th^{2}/2

hmax =Vo^{2}*sin(\alpha )^{2}/(2*g)

if we launch a projectile from some initial height h all you need to do is add this initial elevation

hmax =h+Vo^{2}*sin(\alpha)^{2}/(2*g)

hmax =3+100^{2}*sin(45)^{2}/(2 * 32)=81 ft

Two pulleys, one with a radius 2R and one with a radius of R, are welded together and can rotate about the same axis. A block is
Arisa [49]

Answer:

speed will double

Explanation:

Tangential velocity is given by

v=wr

where r is radius and w is rotational velocity. When r is increased to 2R, keeping roational velocity constant, the tangential velocity doubles. Hence unwinding will take place at a twice the rate and the final velocity will be double
