a person throws a ball upward into the air with an initial velocity of 20 m/s. calculate (a) how high it goes, and (b) how long

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

a) about 20.4 meters high

b) about 4.08 seconds

Explanation:

Part a)

To find the maximum height the ball reaches under the action of gravity (g = 9.8 m/s^2) use the equation that connects change in velocity over time with acceleration.

$a=\frac{Vf-Vi}{t}$

$-9.8 \frac{m}{s} =\frac{Vf-Vi}{t}$

In our case, the initial velocity of the ball as it leaves the hands of the person is Vi = 20 m/s, while thw final velocity of the ball as it reaches its maximum height is zero (0) m/s. Therefore we can solve for the time it takes the ball to reach the top:

$-9.8 =\frac{0-20}{t}\\t=\frac{20}{9.8} s = 2.04 s$

Now we use this time in the expression for the distance covered (final position Xf minus initial position Xi) under acceleration:

$Xf-Xi=Vi*t+\frac{1}{2} a t^{2} \\Xf-Xi=20*(2.04)-\frac{1}{2} 9.8*2.04^{2}\\Xf-Xi=20.408 m$

Part b) Now we use the expression for distance covered under acceleration to find the time it takes for the ball to leave the person's hand and come back to it (notice that Xf-Xi in this case will be zero - same final and initial position)

$Xf-Xi=0=20*(t)-\frac{1}{2} 9.8*t^{2$

To solve for "t" in this quadratic equation, we can factor it out as shown:

$0= t(20-\frac{9.8}{2} t)$

Therefore there are two possible solutions when each of the two factors equals zero:

1) t= 0 (which is not representative of our case) , and

2) the expression in parenthesis is zero:

$0= 20-\frac{9.8}{2} t\\t=\frac{20*2}{9.8} = 4.08 s$

Determine the mechanical energy of this object a 1-kg ball rolls on the ground at <br> m/s

dedylja [7]

Mechanical energy = potential energy + kinetic energy
The ball is on the ground so it has no potential energy. that's all i know.

Which best explains why people see carrots as orange

Andru [333]

Beta Carotene is the reason why a carrot is orange. Carotene is a color pigment that is found in large quantities in carrots and it has health benefits as well. The main health benefit of carotene is that our body converts it into vitamin A which is essential.
