Answer:

Explanation:

There's an easy way to answer this and then an easier way. I'll do both since I'm not sure what you're doing this for: physics or calculus. Calculus is the easier way, btw.

Going with the physics version first, here's what we know:

a = -9.8 m/s/s

v₀ = 3.75 m/s

t = ??

That's not a whole lot...at least not enough to directly solve the problem. What we have to remember here is that at the max height of a parabolic path, the final velocity is 0. So we can add that to our info:

v = 0 m/s. Use the one-dimensional equation that utilizes all that info and allows us to solve for time:

v = v₀ +at and filling in:

0 = 3.75 + (-9.8)t and

-3.75 = -9.8t so

t = .38 seconds. This is how long it takes to get to its max height. Another thing we need to remember (which is why calculus is so much easier!) is that at the halfway point of a parabolic path (the max height), the object has traveled half the time it takes to make the whole trip. In other words, if .38 is how long it takes to go halfway, then 2(.38) is how long the whole trip takes:

2(.38) = .76 seconds. Now onto the calculus way:

The position function is

s(t)=-4.9t^2+3.75t The first derivative of this is the velocity function and, knowing that when the velocity is 0, the time is halfway gone, we will find the velocity function and then set it equal to 0 and solve for t:

v(t) = -9.8t + 3.75 and

0 = -9.8t + 3.75 and

-3.75 = -9.8t so

t = ,38 and multiply that by 2 to find the time the whole trip took:

2(.38) = .76 seconds.

zlopas [31]

The train would need the greatest amount of force due to weight! If you think of it, a baseball won't need much force to stop it, but if you have a heavy train, it will need excessive force to stop the train. The answer would be #3


I hope this answer helps!

Sorry if it doesn't make sense, as I don't know that much about physics! I am just thinking of what makes sense.

The function of a cell depends primarily on its ?
Schach [20]
<span>Organelles which are very important in giving nutrients. During cellular respiration, the food molecules such as glucose, are oxidized to carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) and trapped in ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) form for further us of cell’s activities. ATP’s are formed at mitochondria – the cell’s powerhouse. This type of organelle takes and breaks nutrients absorbed by the cell and creates energy afterward. The energy from ATP is then used by the body in kinetic activities like running & walking or involuntary activities like breathing, blood circulation, stimulus-responding, etc.</span>

An object is dropped from a height of 25 meters. At what velocity will it hit the ground?
Goryan [66]
You can use Vf^2-Vi^2 = 2ax

Vf^2 - 0 = 2(9.81)(25)

Or you can use energy

mgh = 1/2mv^2

2gh =v^2

Same thing
