One way to measure g on another planet or moon by remote sensing is to measure how long it takes an object to fall a given dista

nce. A lander vehicle on a distant planet records the fact that it takes 3.17 s for a ball to fall freely 11.26 m, starting from rest. What is the acceleration due to gravity on that planet?

Answer:

2.24 m/s²

Explanation:

Using equation of motion

s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at²

u = 0 , t = 3.17 s , s = 11.26 m

Put these values in the equation above

11.26 = 0 +.5 x a( 3.17)²

a = 2.24 ms⁻².

So acceleration due to gravity on that planet will be 2.24 m s⁻².

If a ball leaves the ground with a vertical velocity of 5.46 m/s, how long does it take
kifflom [539]

Answer:

0.557 s

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 5.46 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: t

v = at + v₀

0 m/s = (-9.8 m/s²) t + 5.46 m/s

t = 0.557 s
