<span>Since there is no friction, conservation of energy gives change in energy is zero
Change in energy = 0
Change in KE + Change in PE = 0
1/2 x m x (vf^2 - vi^2) + m x g x (hf-hi) = 0
1/2 x (vf^2 - vi^2) + g x (hf-hi) = 0
(vf^2 - vi^2) = 2 x g x (hi - hf)
Since it starts from rest vi = 0
Vf = squareroot of (2 x g x (hi - hf))
For h1, no hf
Vf = squareroot of (2 x g x (hi - hf))
Vf = squareroot of (2 x 9.81 x 30)
Vf = squareroot of 588.6
Vf = 24.26
For h2
Vf = squareroot of (2 x 9.81 x (30 – 12))
Vf = squareroot of (9.81 x 36)
Vf = squareroot of 353.16
Vf = 18.79
For h3
Vf = squareroot of (2 x 9.81 x (30 – 20))
Vf = squareroot of (20 x 9.81)
Vf = 18.79</span>
The complete queston is The amount of a radioactive element A at time t is given by the formula
A(t) = A₀e^kt
Answer: A(t) =N e^( -1.2 X 10^-4t)
Explanation:
Given
Half life = 5730 years.
A(t) =A₀e ^kt
such that
A₀/ 2 =A₀e ^kt
Dividing both sides by A₀
1/2 = e ^kt
1/2 = e ^k(5730)
1/2 = e^5730K
In 1/2 = 5730K
k = 1n1/2 / 5730
k = 1n0.5 / 5730
K= -0.00012 = 1.2 X 10^-4
So that expressing N in terms of t, we have
A(t) =A₀e ^kt
A₀ = N
A(t) =N e^ -1.2 X 10^-4t
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
