<h2>After 26.28 seconds projectile returns 26.28 seconds.</h2>

Explanation:

Initial velocity = 450 ft/s = 137.16 m/s

Angle, θ = 70°

Consider the vertical motion of projectile,

When the projectile return to the ground we have

Displacement, s = 0 m

Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²

Initial velocity, u = 137.16 x sin70 = 128.89 m/s

Substituting in s = ut + 0.5 at²

s = ut + 0.5 at²

0 = 128.89 x t + 0.5 x (-9.81) x t²

t² - 26.28 t = 0

t ( t- 26.28) = 0

t = 0 s or t = 26.28 s

After 26.28 seconds projectile returns 26.28 seconds.

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Her answer is not reliable.

Explanation:

Reliability and validity are two major concepts that are used to assess the standard and quality of response/research.

While validity of an instrument is the idea that the instrument measures what it intends to measure, reliability is all about consistency and whether or not results could be replicated.

While your friend's answer may be valid, it can't reliable because of the differences in her response within a short time.

With what minimum speed must you toss a 130 gg ball straight up to just touch the 15-mm-high roof of the gymnasium if you releas

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The initial velocity is 0.5114 m/s or 511.4 mm/s

Explanation:

Let the initial velocity be 'v'.

Given:

Mass of the ball (m) = 130 g = 0.130 kg [ 1 g = 0.001 kg]

Initial height of the ball (h₁) = 1.4 mm = 0.0014 m [ 1 mm = 0.001 m]

Final height of the ball (h₂) = 15 mm = 0.015 m

Now, from conservation of energy principle, energy can neither be created nor be destroyed but converted from one form to another.

Here, the kinetic energy of the ball is converted to gravitational potential energy of the ball after reaching the final height.

Change in kinetic energy is given as:

$\Delta KE=\frac{1}{2}m(v_f^2-v_i^2)\\Where\ v_f\to Final\ velocity\\v_i\to Initial\ velocity$

As it just touches the 15 mm high roof, the final velocity will be zero. So,

$v_f=0\ m/s$ .

Now, the change in kinetic energy is equal to:

$\Delta KE = \frac{1}{2}\times 0.130\times v^2\\\\\Delta KE = 0.065v^2$

Change in gravitational potential energy = Final PE - Initial PE

So,

$\Delta U=mg(h_f-h_i)\\\\\Delta U=0.130\times 9.8\times (0.015-0.0014)\\\\\Delta U=0.017\ J$ [ g = 9.8 m/s²]

Now, Change in KE = Change in PE

$0.065v^2=0.017\\\\v=\sqrt{\frac{0.017}{0.065}}\\\\v=0.5114\ m/s\\\\1\ m=1000\ mm\\\\So,0.5114\ m=511.4\ mm\\\\\therefore v=511.4\ mm/s$

Therefore, the initial velocity is 0.5114 m/s or 511.4 mm/s
