First, we must find the vertical distance traveled upwards by the ball due to the throw. For this, we will use the formula:
2as = v² - u²
Because the final velocity v is 0 in such cases
s = -u²/2a; because both u and a are downwards, the negative sign cancels
s = 14.5² / 2*9.81
s = 10.72 meters
Next, to find the time taken to reach the ground, we need the height above the ground. This is:
45 + 10.72 = 55.72 m
We will use the formula
s = ut + 0.5at²
to find the time taken with the initial velocity u = 0.
55.72 = 0.5 * 9.81 * t²
t = 3.37 seconds
Answer:
The model, called the kinetic theory of gases, assumes that the molecules are very small relative to the distance between molecules. ... The molecules are in constant random motion, and there is an energy (mass x square of the velocity) associated with that motion. The higher the temperature, the greater the motion.
Energy is transferred between the ground and the atmosphere via conduction.
Since air is a poor conductor, most energy transfer by conduction<span> occurs right at the earth's surface</span>
