<span><span>anonymous </span> 4 years ago</span>Any time you are mixing distance and acceleration a good equation to use is <span>ΔY=<span>V<span>iy</span></span>t+1/2a<span>t2</span></span> I would split this into two segments - the rise and the fall. For the fall, Vi = 0 since the player is at the peak of his arc and delta-Y is from 1.95 to 0.890.
For the upward part of the motion the initial velocity is unknown and the final velocity is zero, but motion is symetrical - it takes the same amount of time to go up as it does to go down. Physiscists often use the trick "I'm going to solve a different problem, that I know will give me the same answer as the one I was actually asked.) So for the first half you could also use Vi = 0 and a downward delta-Y to solve for the time.
Add the two times together for the total.
The alternative is to calculate the initial and final velocity so that you have more information to work with.
Answer:
-387883.3 m/s²
0.000286168546055 seconds
Explanation:
t = Time taken
u = Initial velocity = 370 m/s
v = Final velocity = 259 m/s
s = Displacement = 9 cm
a = Acceleration

The acceleration of the bullet is -387883.3 m/s²

The time taken is 0.000286168546055 seconds
Answer:
0.17 s
Explanation:
Given:
Δy = 0.15 m
v₀ = 0 m/s
a = 9.8 m/s²
Find: t
Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²
0.15 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²
t = 0.17 s
Answer:
a) A=0.125 m
b) T = 1.72 s
c) f= 0.58 Hz
Explanation:
a) As we are told that the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position was 0.125 m (from which it was released at zero initial speed), this is the amplitude of the resultant SHM, so, A=0.125 m
b) In order to find the period, we must get the total time needed to complete a full cycle (which means that the block must pass twice through the equilibrium point). We are told that at t=0.860 sec, the block has reached to the other end of the trajectory, and it has passed through the equilibrium point only once.
This means that the period must be exactly the double of this time:
T = 2*0. 860 sec = 1.72 sec.
c) In a SHM, the frequency is defined just as the inverse of the period (like in a uniform circular movement), so we can get the frequency f as follows:
f = 1/T = 1/ 1.72 s= 0.58 Hz
