a) 2.75 s
The vertical position of the ball at time t is given by the equation
where
h = 4 m is the initial height of the ball
u = 12 m/s is the initial velocity of the ball (upward)
g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (downward)
We can find the time t at which the ball reaches the ground by substituting y=0 into the equation:
This is a second-order equation. By solving it for t, we find:
t = -0.30 s
t = 2.75 s
The first solution is negative, so we discard it; the second solution, t = 2.75 s, is the one we are looking for.
b) -15.0 m/s (downward)
The final velocity of the ball can be calculated by using the equation:
where
u = 12 m/s is the initial (upward) velocity
g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (downward)
t is the time
By subsisuting t = 2.75 s, we find the velocity of the ball as it reaches the ground:
And the negative sign means the direction is downward.
Answer: 31.6ft
Explanation:
Check the attachment for the diagram.
According to the right angle triangle AEC, we will use Pythagoras theorem to get |AC|. Note that |AE| = |AB| - |CD|
that is 20ft - 10ft = 10ft
According to the theorem, the square of the sum of the adjacent side and the opposite side is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.
|AE|^2 + |EC|^2 = |AC|^2
10^2 + 30^2 = |AC|^2
100 + 900 = |AC|^2
|AC| = √1000
|AC| = 31.6ft
Therefore, the wire should be anchored 31.6ft to the ground to minimize the amount of wire needed.
