Answer:
it would make sense because a larger body could produce more body heat.
Given parameters:
First velocity = 2.50m/s
Time of travel = 3s
Second velocity = 1.50m/s
Unknown:
The displacement during the first interval = ?
Velocity is the displacement of a body with time. Displacement is a distance move in a specific direction by a body.
Velocity =
So;
Displacement = Velocity x Time taken
Now input the parameter for the first velocity and time of travel;
Displacement = 2.5 x 3 = 7.5m
The displacement id 7.5m
let the height of the person with marshmallow on her head be "h"
consider the motion of the marshmallow after it is dropped from bridge.
Y₀ = initial position of the marshmallow above the ground = 5.71 m
Y = final position of marshmallow on head of person = h
v₀ = initial velocity of the marshmallow = 0 m/s
a = acceleration due to gravity = - 9.8 m/s²
t = time of travel for marshmallow = 0.921 sec
Using the kinematics equation
Y = Y₀ + v₀ t + (0.5) a t²
inserting the values
h = 5.71 + 0 (0.921) + (0.5) (-9.8) (0.921)²
h = 5.71 - 4.16
h = 1.55 m
