You throw a ball straight up from the edge of a cliff. It leaves your hand moving at 12.0 m/s. Air resistance can be neglected.

Take the positive y-direction to be upward, and choose y = 0 to be the point where the ball leaves your hand. Find the ball's position 0.300 s after it leaves your hand.

Answer:

y = 3.159 m

Explanation:

Using the second equation of motion.

s = ut + 0.5at^2 .......1

Since the ball is thrown upward the acceleration due to gravity act against it.

Given:

distance s = y

Initial speed u = 12.0 m/s

Time t = 0.30 s

Acceleration a = -g = -9.8m/s^2

Equation 1 becomes;

y = ut - 0.5at^2

Substituting the given values. We have;

y = 12.0(0.30) - 0.5(9.8 × 0.3^2)

y = 3.6 - 0.441

y = 3.159 m

Answer:

An accelerometer is a tool that measures proper acceleration.[1] Proper acceleration is the acceleration (the rate of change of velocity) of a body in its own instantaneous rest frame;[2] this is different from coordinate acceleration, which is acceleration in a fixed coordinate system. For example, an accelerometer at rest on the surface of the Earth will measure an acceleration due to Earth's gravity, straight upwards[3] (by definition) of g ≈ 9.81 m/s2. By contrast, accelerometers in free fall (falling toward the center of the Earth at a rate of about 9.81 m/s2) will measure zero.

Accelerometers have many uses in industry and science. Highly sensitive accelerometers are used in inertial navigation systems for aircraft and missiles. Vibration in rotating machines is monitored by accelerometers. They are used in tablet computers and digital cameras so that images on screens are always displayed upright. In unmanned aerial vehicles, accelerometers help to stabilise flight.

When two or more accelerometers are coordinated with one another, they can measure differences in proper acceleration, particularly gravity, over their separation in space—that is, the gradient of the gravitational field. Gravity gradiometry is useful because absolute gravity is a weak effect and depends on the local density of the Earth, which is quite variable.

Single- and multi-axis accelerometers can detect both the magnitude and the direction of the proper acceleration, as a vector quantity, and can be used to sense orientation (because the direction of weight changes), coordinate acceleration, vibration, shock, and falling in a resistive medium (a case in which the proper acceleration changes, increasing from zero). Micromachined microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) accelerometers are increasingly present in portable electronic devices and video-game controllers, to detect changes in the positions of these devices.
