Answer:
5080.86m
Explanation:
We will divide the problem in parts 1 and 2, and write the equation of accelerated motion with those numbers, taking the upwards direction as positive. For the first part, we have:
We must consider that it's launched from the ground (
) and from rest (
), with an upwards acceleration 
that lasts a time t=9.7s.
We calculate then the height achieved in part 1:
And the velocity achieved in part 1:
We do the same for part 2, but now we must consider that the initial height is the one achieved in part 1 (
) and its initial velocity is the one achieved in part 1 (
), now in free fall, which means with a downwards acceleration 
. For the data we have it's faster to use the formula 
, where d will be the displacement, or difference between maximum height and starting height of part 2, and the final velocity at maximum height we know must be 0m/s, so we have:
Then, to get 
, we do:
And we substitute the values:
While falling, both the sheet of paper and the paper ball experience air resistance. But the surface area of the sheet is much more than that of the spherical ball. And air resistance varies directly with surface area. Hence the sheet experiences more air resistance than the ball and it falls more slowly than the paper ball.
Hope that helps!
Because gravity is constant
<span>the only force acting in free-fall is gravity which points downward at 9.8 m/s</span>
Answer: d. 8.25 m/s
Explanation:
We are given that Current= 5 m/s in j direction
Velocity= 8 m/s i + 3 m/s j
Now, we have to find Jada's speed with respect to the water.
First we find Jada's velocity with respect to water
v= (8 i + 3 j) - (5 j)
v= 8i - 2 j
To find the speed, we take the magnitude of this velocity vector we have
|v|= 
|v|= 
= 8.246 m/s
which comes out to be around = 8.25 m/s
So option d is correct.
