Answer: Part(a)=0.041 secs, Part(b)=0.041 secs
Explanation: Firstly we assume that only the gravitational acceleration is acting on the basket ball player i.e. there is no air friction
now we know that
a=-9.81 m/s^2 ( negative because it is pulling the player downwards)
we also know that
s=76 cm= 0.76 m ( maximum s)
using kinetic equation
where v is final velocity which is zero at max height and u is it initial
hence
now we can find time in the 15 cm ascent
using quadratic formula
t=0.0409 sec
the answer for the part b will be the same
To find the answer for the part b we can find the velocity at 15 cm height similarly using
where s=0.76-0.15
as the player has traveled the above distance to reach 15cm to the bottom
when the player reaches the bottom it has the same velocity with which it started which is 3.861
hence the time required to reach the bottom 15cm is
t=0.0409
Answer:
D. Meters/Seconds
Explanation:
The time period of a wave is measured in seconds.
A typical wave involves both time and distance. Consider a sound wave, which is basically a periodic modulation of the local air pressure. We "hear" the sound because our ears respond to the variations of pressure.
The most common metric of a sound wave is frequency. This is the rate at which the change in pressure occurs, and is measured in cycles per second, formally known as "hertz". The period is the inverse of frequency andl has the units of seconds per cycle, commonly stated simply as seconds.
Same speed, because mass is neglected. The things that affect the speed are the distance and speed of the rock.
This problems a perfect application for this acceleration formula:
Distance = (1/2) (acceleration) (time)² .
During the speeding-up half: 1,600 meters = (1/2) (1.3 m/s²) T²
During the slowing-down half: 1,600 meters = (1/2) (1.3 m/s²) T²
Pick either half, and divide each side by 0.65 m/s²:
T² = (1600 m) / (0.65 m/s²)
T = square root of (1600 / 0.65) seconds
Time for the total trip between the stations is double that time.
T = 2 √(1600/0.65) = <em>99.2 seconds</em> (rounded)
