Kalea throws a baseball directly upward at time t = 0 at an initial speed of 13.7 m/s. How high h does the ball rise above its r

Trava [24]

Answer:

h = 9.57 seconds

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial speed of Kalea, u = 13.7 m/s

At maximum height, v = 0

Let t is the time taken by the ball to reach its maximum point. It cane be calculated as :

$v=u-gt$

$u=gt$

$t=\dfrac{u}{g}$

$t=\dfrac{13.7}{9.8}$

t = 1.39 s

Let h is the height reached by the ball above its release point. It can be calculated using second equation of motion as :

$h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

Here, a = -g

$h=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$h=13.7\times 1.39-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times (1.39)^2$

h = 9.57 meters

So, the height attained by the ball above its release point is 9.57 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

Please help me with this physics prooblem

zaharov [31]

Take the missile's starting position to be the origin. Assuming the angles given are taken to be counterclockwise from the positive horizontal axis, the missile has position vector with components

$x=v_0\cos20.0^\circ t+\dfrac12a_xt^2$

$y=v_0\sin20.0^\circ t+\dfrac12a_yt^2$

The missile's final position after 9.20 s has to be a vector whose distance from the origin is 19,500 m and situated 32.0 deg relative the positive horizontal axis. This means the final position should have components

$x_{9.20\,\mathrm s}=(19,500\,\mathrm m)\cos32.0^\circ$

$y_{9.20\,\mathrm s}=(19,500\,\mathrm m)\sin32.0^\circ$

So we have enough information to solve for the components of the acceleration vector, $a_x$ and $a_y$ :

$x_{9.20\,\mathrm s}=\left(1810\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\cos20.0^\circ(9.20\,\mathrm s)+\dfrac12a_x(9.20\,\mathrm s)^2\implies a_x=21.0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}$

$y_{9.20\,\mathrm s}=\left(1810\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\sin20.0^\circ(9.20\,\mathrm s)+\dfrac12a_y(9.20\,\mathrm s)^2\implies a_y=110\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}$

The acceleration vector then has direction $\theta$ where

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{a_y}{a_x}\implies\theta=79.2^\circ$
