Answer:
a) 4.45 m/s
b) 0.9 seconds
Explanation:
t = Time taken
u = Initial velocity
v = Final velocity
s = Displacement
a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
a) The vertical speed when the player leaves the ground is 4.45 m/s
Time taken to reach the maximum height is 0.45 seconds
Time taken to reach the ground from the maximum height is 0.45 seconds
b) Time the player stayed in the air is 0.45+0.45 = 0.9 seconds
<u>Answer:</u>
2N/cm
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
According to the Hooke's Law, the force required to extend or compress a spring is directly proportional distance you can stretch it, which is represented as:
where, is the force which is stretching or compressing the spring,
is the spring constant; and
is the distance the spring is stretched.
Substituting the given values to find the elastic constant to get:
Therefore, the elastic constant is 2 Newton/cm.
