What is the speed of a ball thrown from 1.2m above the ground if it travels 13.7m horizontally before hitting the ground

Physics

Fudgin [204]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

The trick is to find the time.

If the ball did not travel horizontally at all and was just dropped, how long would it take to hit the ground?

<em>Givens</em>

vi = 0

d = 1.2 m

a = 9.8 m/s^2

<em>Formula</em>

d = vi * t + 1/2 * a ^ t^2

<em>Solution</em>

1.2 = 0*t + 1/2 9.8 * t^2

1.2 = 4.9 t^2

t^2 = 1.2 / 4.9

t^2 = 0.245

sqrt(t^2) = sqrt(.245)

t = 0.4949 seconds

<em>Answer</em>

You are not very clear about which answer you want. There are two of them. One is going horizontally and the other is vertically.

<u>Vertical</u>

vf^2 = vi^2 + 2*a*d

vi = 0

a = 9.8

t = 0.4949

vf^2 =0^2 +  2 * 9.8 * 1.2

vf^2 = 23.52

sqrt(vf^2) = sqrt(23.52)

vf = 4.85 m/s

<u>Horizontal</u>

This is likely what you are looking for.

There is 0 acceleration horizontally.

d = 13.5 m

t = 0.4949

s = ?

s = d/t

s = 13.5/0.4949

s = 27.28

<em>Note</em>

You should note a couple of things.

  1. The horizontal and vertical speeds are not the same.
  2. The time is used for both the horizontal and vertical speeds.
  3. The horizontal and vertical distances are quite different.
  4. Horizontal accelerations for these type of questions is generally 0.

inessss [21]

Answer:

1.5min

Explanation:

To solve the problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to Period and Centripetal Acceleration.

By definition centripetal acceleration is given by

a_c = \frac{V^2}{r}

Where,

V = Tangencial velocity

r = radius

With our values we know that

a_c = \frac{V^2}{r}

\frac{V^2}{r} = \frac{1}{10}g

Therefore solving to find V, we have:

V = \sqrt{\frac{1}{10}g*r}

V = \sqrt{\frac{9.81*200}{10}}

V = 14m/s

For definition we know that the Time to complete are revolution is given by

t = \frac{Perimeter}{Speed}

t = \frac{2\pi R}{V}

t = \frac{2\pi * 200}{14}

t = 1.5min

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

v' = 2.83 m/s

Explanation:

Velocity of wave in stretched string is given by the formula

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

here we know that

T = 4 N

also we know that linear mass density is given as

\mu = 1 kg/m

so we have

v = \sqrt{\frac{4}{1}} = 2 m/s

now the tension in the string is double

so the velocity is given as

v' = \sqrt{\frac{8}{1}} = 2\sqrt2 m/s

v' = 2.83 m/s
