A ball is thrown straight upward and rises to a maximum

Physics
1 answer:
Leviafan [203]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

As we know that the ball is projected upwards so that it will reach to maximum height of 16 m

so we have

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

here we know that

v_f = 0

also we have

a = -9.81 m/s^2

so we have

0 - v_i^2 = 2(-9.81)(16)

v_i = 17.72 m/s

Now we need to find the height where its speed becomes half of initial value

so we have

v_f = 0.5 v_i

now we have

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

(0.5v_i)^2 - v_i^2 = 2(-9.81)h

-0.75v_i^2 = -19.62 h

0.75(17.72)^2 = 19.62 h

h = 12 m

lesantik [10]

Answer:

The pole stores elastic potential energy when the pole is bent because its shape is change from its natural shape and it will want to go back to its original form, just like a spring or stretched elastic material.

Stels [109]
Ok so this is simple projectile motion problem.

if we have an object falling in free fall it is subject to gravity of -9.80m/s^2

so it says it takes 6 sec to fall and we know initial velocity was zero so we know that h=vt+1/2gt^2 so we get h=0+1/2*9.80*6^2 = 176.4m 

so solving for final speed we get KE=PE = 1/2mv^2=mgh = 1/2v^2=gh so 
v=sqrt(2*g*h) = sqrt(2*9.8*176.4m) = 58.8m/s final speed when it hits the ground


hope this helps you! Thanks!!

When hiking at altitude, the air pressure drops to 825,000Pa. Solve the force that site exerts against the side of a rectangular
OLga [1]

Answer:

The force is 1237500N

Explanation:

We can apply the following expression

pressure=\frac{Force}{Area}

To find the area of rectangular tent wall:

Area=length *width\\Area=2.00m*0.750m\\Area=1.5m^{2}

Now to find the force:

pressure=825,000pa

pressure=\frac{Force}{Area}

Force=pressure*Area\\Force=825000pa*1.5m^{2} \\Force=1237500N
