A small object begins a free-fall from a height of =81.5 m at 0=0 s . After τ=2.20 s , a second small object is launched vertica

lly up from the ground with an initial velocity of 0=40.0 m/s . At what height from the ground will the two objects first meet?

Answer:

33.23 m

Explanation:

At the point where both objects will meet, the vertical height will be equal.

From the equations of motion, the vertical height of the body falling at any time is given as

(y - y₀) = ut + ½gt²

y = vertical height at any time T

y₀ = initial height of the object = 81.5 m

u = initial velocity = 0 m/s (body was dropped)

g = -9.8 m/s²

(y - 81.5) = 0 - 4.9T²

y = 81.5 - 4.9T² (eqn 1)

For an object thrown up, the vertical height of the body at any time, t, is given as

(y - y₀) = ut + ½gt²

y = vertical height of the object at any time t

y₀ = initial height of the object = 0 m

u = initial velocity = 40 m/s

g = -9.8 m/s²

y = 40t - 4.9t² (eqn 2)

At the point where the two objects meet, we equate eqn 1 and eqn 2

y = y

81.5 - 4.9T² = 40t - 4.9t²

But T = (t + 2.2) (Since object 2 was dropped 2.2 s after object 1)

81.5 - 4.9(t + 2.2)² = 40t - 4.9t²

81.5 - 4.9(t² + 4.4t + 4.84) = 40t - 4.9t²

81.5 - 4.9t² - 21.56t - 23.716 = 40t - 4.9t²

81.5 - 21.56t - 23.716 - 40t = 0

57.784 = 61.56t

t = (57.784/61.56) = 0.93866 = 0.94 s

Therefore, the vertical height at t = 0.93866 s is

y = (40×0.93866) - 4.9(0.93866²) = 33.23 m

Hope this Helps!!!

If you cannot get a chair to move across the floor, it is because ___ friction opposes your push.
denis-greek [22]
If you cannot get a chair to move across the floor, it is because static friction opposes your push. When you say static or kinetic friction the two object that facing each other are opposing each other. That's why you're having a hard time pushing the chair.

Whats the force of gravitation of a 10kg rock and 100kg boulder which are 5 meters apart​
spayn [35]

Answer:

F = 2.6692 x 10⁻⁹ N

Explanation:

Given,

The mass of the rock, m = 10 kg

The mass of the boulder, M = 100 kg

The distance between them, d = 5 m

The gravitational force between the two bodies is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. It is given by the formula

                                   <em> F = GMm/d²  newton</em>

Where,

                                 G - Universal gravitational constant

Substituting the given values,

                                 F = 6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ x 100 x 10 / 5²

                                 F = 2.6692 X 10⁻⁹ N

Hence, the force between the two bodies is, F = 2.6692 X 10⁻⁹ N

Propose a hypothesis for how the position of the ball will affect the amount of its gravitational pull energy
Ray Of Light [21]

<em><u>throwing a ball up initially has a lot of kinetic energy because it is moving upwards ( kinetic energy is energy which a body possesses by virtue of being in motion.) this all then get converted to gravitational potential energy, and for a moment it is stationary before it begins to fall again.  by the time it has returned again, all the gravitational potential energy has turned back into kinetic.</u></em>
