A woman on a bridge 82.2 m high sees a raft floating at a constant speed on the river below. She drops a stone from rest in an a
solong [7]

Answer:

0.71 m/s

Explanation:

We find the time it takes the stone to hit the water.

Using y = ut - 1/2gt² where y = height of bridge, u = initial speed of stone = 0 m/s, g = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s² (negative since it is directed downwards)and t = time it takes the stone to hit the water surface.

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

y = ut - 1/2gt²

82.2 m = (0m/s)t - 1/2( -9.8 m/s²)t²

82.2 m = 0 + (4.9 m/s²)t²

82.2 m =  (4.9 m/s²)t²

t²  = 82.2 m/4.9 m/s²

t² = 16.78 s²

t = √16.78 s²

t = 4.1 s

This is also the time it takes the raft to move from 5.04 m before the bridge to 2.13 m before the bridge. So, the distance moved by the raft in time t = 4.1 s is 5.04 m - 2.13 m = 2.91 m.

Since speed = distance/time, the raft's speed v = 2.91 m/4.1 s = 0.71 m/s
