Q. No. 9 A body falls freely from the top of a tower and during the last second of its fall, it falls through 25m. Find the heig
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

45.6m

Explanation:

The equation for the position y of an object in free fall is:

y=-\frac{1}{2} gt^2+v_0t+y_0

With the given values in the question the equation has one unknown v₀:

v_0=\frac{y-y_0}{t}+\frac{1}{2}gt

Solving for t=1:

1) v_0=y-y_0+\frac{g}{2}

To find the hight of the tower you can use the concept of energy conservation:

The energy of the body 1 sec before it hits the ground:

2) E=\frac{1}{2}m{v_0}^2+mgy_0

If h is the height of the tower, the energy on top of the tower:

3) E=mgh

Combining equation 2 and 3 and solving for h:

4) h=\frac{{v_0}^2}{2g}+y_0

Combining equation 1 and 4:

h=\frac{{(y-y_0+\frac{g}{2}})^2}{2g}+y_0
