A rock thrown straight up takes 4.2 s to reach its maximum height what was its initial velocity

Physics

liubo4ka [24]3 years ago
8 0

Consider the upward direction of motion as positive and downward direction of motion as negative.

a = acceleration due to gravity in downward direction = - 9.8 \frac{m }{s^{2}}

v₀ = initial velocity of rock in upward direction = ?

v = final velocity of rock at the highest point = 0 \frac{m }{s}

t = time to reach the maximum height = 4.2 sec

Using the kinematics equation

v = v₀ + a t

inserting the values

0 = v₀ + (- 9.8) (4.2)

v₀ = 41.2 \frac{m }{s}

The intensity of an earthquake wave passing through the earth is measured to be 2.5×106 j/(m2⋅s) at a distance of 43 km from the
vampirchik [111]

r₁ = distance of the point from the source = 43 km = 43000 m

I₁ = intensity of earthquake wave at distance "r₁" = 2.5 x 10⁶ W/m²

r₂ = distance of the point from the source = 1.5 km = 1500 m

I₂ = intensity of earthquake wave at distance "r₂" = ?

we know that , for a constant power , the intensity of wave is inversely proportional to the distance from the source .

I α 1/r²             where I = intensity of wave , r = distance from source

hence we can write

I₁/I₂ = r₂²/r₁²

inserting the values

(2.5 x 10⁶) /I₂ = (1500/43000)²

I₂ = 2.1 x 10⁹ W/m²
