A basketball star covers 3.05 m horizontally in a jump to dunk the ball (see figure). His motion through space can be modeled pr

ecisely as that of a particle at his center of mass. His center of mass is at elevation 1.02 m when he leaves the floor. It reaches a maximum height of 1.95 m above the floor and is at elevation 0.890 m when he touches down again. What is his time of flight?

<span><span>anonymous </span> 4 years ago</span>Any time you are mixing distance and acceleration a good equation to use is <span>ΔY=<span>V<span>iy</span></span>t+1/2a<span>t2</span></span> I would split this into two segments - the rise and the fall. For the fall, Vi = 0 since the player is at the peak of his arc and delta-Y is from 1.95 to 0.890. For the upward part of the motion the initial velocity is unknown and the final velocity is zero, but motion is symetrical - it takes the same amount of time to go up as it does to go down. Physiscists often use the trick "I'm going to solve a different problem, that I know will give me the same answer as the one I was actually asked.) So for the first half you could also use Vi = 0 and a downward delta-Y to solve for the time. Add the two times together for the total. The alternative is to calculate the initial and final velocity so that you have more information to work with.

Answer:

T = 0.90 s

Explanation:

Initially the position of center of mass is at 1.02 m

Then he reached to height 1.95 m

so total displacement of the player in vertical direction is

y = 1.95 - 1.02 = 0.93 m

now we know that it will reach to this displacement when final velocity becomes zero

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2a y

0 - v_i^2 = 2(-9.81)(0.93)

v_i = 4.27 m/s

now we have

v_f - v_i = at

t_1 = \frac{0 - 4.27}{-9.81}

t_1 = 0.435 s

Now when it will reach the ground again then his displacement is given as

y = 1.95 - 0.890 = 1.06 m

\delta y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

1.06 = \frac{1}{2}(9.81)t^2

t_2 = 0.465 s

now total time of his motion is given as

T = t_1 + t_2

T = 0.465 + 0.435

T = 0.90 s

Scenario 3Starting at rest, a 3 kg ball is dropped from the side of a bridge and strikes the ground below at 35m/s. What is the
Nonamiya [84]

   The ball's gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as it falls toward the ground.

<h3>How can the height of a dropped ball be determined?</h3>

    Y = 1/2 g t 2, where y is the height above the ground, g = 9.8 m/s2, and t = 1.3 s, is the formula for problems like these. Any freely falling body with an initial velocity of zero meters per second can use this formula. figuring out how much y is.

   A ball drops from the top of a building and picks up speed as it descends. Its speed is increasing by 10 m/s every second. What we refer to as motion with constant acceleration is, for example, a ball falling due to gravity.

    The ball's parabolic motion causes it to move at a speed of 26.3 m/s right before it strikes the ground, which is faster than its straight downhill motion, which has a speed of 17.1 m/s. Take note of the rising positive y direction in the above graphic.

a car starts from the rest and accelerates at 9.54m/s for 6.5 seconds. what is the distance covered by the car​
uysha [10]

Answer:

= 201.53 meters

Explanation:

A car started from rest and accelerated at 9.54 m/s^2 for 6.5 seconds. How much distance was covered by the car?

Use the formula  d = \frac{at^{2} }{2} ,

where d is the distance, t is the time and "a" is the acceleration.
d=\frac{9*54*6*5^{2} }{2} = 201.53 m

How are intensity sound and energy related
zubka84 [21]
Sound is a form of energy in that it consists fluctuations of air pressure . The speed of the fluctuations is measured in cycles per second or Hertz (HZ)

Intensity is how large the fluctuations are, also known as amplitude and for the sound the unit is decibels of sonic pressure level (dB SPL)
