The acceleration is
Explanation:
This is a uniformly accelerated motion (constant acceleration), therefore we can apply the following suvat equation:
where
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
a is the acceleration
t is the time
For the scooter in this problem, we have
u = 0 (it starts from rest)
v = 10.0 m/s is the final velocity
t = 4.0 s is the time interval
Solving for a, we find the acceleration:

a) Vertical velocity: 5.9 m/s
b) Horizontal velocity: 5 m/s
Explanation:
a)
The motion of the ball is the motion of a projectile, which consists of two independent motions:
- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction)
- A uniformly accelerated motion (constant acceleration) along the vertical direction
Here we want to find the vertical component of the ball's velocity. This can be done by using the suvat equation for the vertical motion:
where:
is the vertical velocity at time t
is the initial vertical velocity (zero because the ball has been thrown horizontally)
is the acceleration of gravity (here we take downward as positive direction)
Substituting t = 0.6 s, which is the total time of flight, we find the vertical velocity of the ball just before it hits the ground:
b)
The motion along the vertical direction is an accelerated motion, because there is a force (the force of gravity) acting on the ball and that it causes an acceleration in the ball.
However, there are no forces acting in the horizontal direction on the ball (if we neglect the air resistance): this means that the acceleration of the ball in the horizontal direction is zero.
As a consequence, this also means that the horizontal component of the ball's velocity is constant during the motion.
Since the ball was thrown from the table with an initial horizontal velocity of 5 m/s, this means that the horizontal velocity of the ball just before it hits the floor is still
Answer:
23. 4375 m
Explanation:
There are two parts of the rocket's motion
1 ) accelerating (assume it goes upto h1 height )
using motion equations upwards
Lets find the velocity after 2.5 seconds (V1)
V = U +at
V1 = 0 +5*2.5 = 12.5 m/s
2) motion under gravity (assume it goes upto h2 height )
now there no acceleration from the rocket. it is now subjected to the gravity
using motion equations upwards (assuming g= 10m/s² downwards)
V²= U² +2as
0 = 12.5²+2*(-10)*h2
h2 = 7.8125 m
maximum height = h1 + h2
= 15.625 + 7.8125
= 23. 4375 m
