A free-falling projectile is launched from the ground and has a hangtime of 6 seconds before hitting the ground. How high did it
grandymaker [24]

1A)  

x=v0x*t=v0cosθ*t  

x=52co31*3.2=142.6 m  

1B)  

y0=1/2gt^2-v0y*t=1/2gt^2-v0sinθt  

y=0.5*9.8*3.2^2-52*sin31*3,2=23.4 m  

2A)  

x=2v0^2sin(2θ)/g  

v0=[xg/2sin(2θ)]^1/2=14.4 m/s  

the initial speed relative to the ground is  

v=v0-4.4=10 m/s  

2B)  

fly time is  

t=2voy/g  

t=2*14.4/9.8=2.94  

2C)  

mgy=1/2mv0y^2  

y=v0y^2/(2g)=10.58 m

bearhunter [10]

Answer;

A barrier, a surface or a boundary

Explanation;

Reflection is the property waves that occurs due to the bouncing back of a wave after it strikes a barrier.

Reflection involves change in direction of a wavefront at an interface between two different media such that the wavefront returns into the medium from which it originated. In other words, the direction of the wave changes when they bounce of a barrier or a surface.
