Sounds like the shingle/ball is thrown from the roof horizontally, so that the distance it travels <em>x</em> after time <em>t</em> horizontally is
<em>x</em> = (7.2 m/s) <em>t</em>
The object's height <em>y</em> at time <em>t</em> is
<em>y</em> = 9.4 m - 1/2 <em>gt</em>²
where <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity, and its vertical velocity is
<em>v</em> = -<em>gt</em>
(a) The object hits the ground when <em>y</em> = 0:
0 = 9.4 m - 1/2 <em>gt</em>²
<em>t</em>² = 2 * (9.4 m) / (9.80 m/s²)
<em>t</em> ≈ 1.92 s
at which time the object's vertical velocity is
<em>v</em> = -<em>g</em> (1.92 s) = -18.8 m/s ≈ -19 m/s
(b) See part (a); it takes the object about 1.9 s to reach the ground.
(c) The object travels a horizontal distance of
<em>x</em> = (7.2 m/s) * (1.92 s) ≈ 13.8 m ≈ 14 m
Explanation:
Average acceleration is change in velocity over time.
a = Δv / Δt
a = (22.0 m/s − (-25.0 m/s)) / 0.00350 s
a = 13,400 m/s²
A is not the correct answer because the amplitude and oscillation and there is 1/2 A in oscillation
