Answer:

0.55 s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) = 1.5 m

Horizontal velocity (v) = 25 m/s

Time of flight (t) =?

The time of flight of the potato talks about the total time spent by the potato in the air i.e the time taken for the potato to get to the ground..

Thus, we can obtain the time of flight of the potato as illustrated below:

Height (h) = 1.5 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time of flight (t) =?

H = ½gt²

1.5 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

1.5 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 1.5 / 4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(1.5 / 4.9)

t = 0.55 s

Thus, the time of flight is 0.55 s

MArishka [77]

Complete Question:

Suppose that an asteroid traveling straight toward the center of the earth were to collide with our planet at the equator and bury itself just below the surface. What would have to be the mass of this asteroid, in terms of the earth’s mass M, for the day to become 25.0% longer than it presently is as a result of the collision? Assume that the asteroid is very small compared to the earth and that the earth is uniform throughout.

Answer:

m = 0.001 M
