Answer:
Explanation:
Time can be found by dividing the distance by the speed.
The distance is 45 meters and the speed is 12.5 meters per second.
Divide. Note that the meters, or "m" will cancel each other out.
It will take the dolphin 3.6 seconds to swim a distance of 45 meters are 12.5 meters per second.
The initial velocity of the ball is 1.01 m/s
Explanation:
The motion of the ball rolling off the desk is a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:
- A uniform horizontal motion with constant horizontal velocity
- A vertical accelerated motion with constant acceleration (, acceleration due to gravity)
We start by analyzing the vertical motion: we can find the time of flight of the ball by using the following suvat equation
where
s = 1.20 m is the vertical displacement (the height of the desk)
u = 0 is the initial vertical velocity
t is the time of flight
Solving for t,
Now we analyze the horizontal motion. We know that the ball covers a horizontal distance of
d = 0.50 m
in a time
t = 0.495 s
Therefore, since the horizontal velocity is constant, we can calculate it as
So, the ball rolls off the table at 1.01 m/s.
