A ball is thrown upward with a speed of 40 m/s. Approximately how much time does it take the ball to travel from the release loc

ation (A). Till its highest point (B)? Approximately how much total time is the ball in the air before it returns back to its original height (C)?

I'm going to assume that this gripping drama takes place on planet Earth, where the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².  The solutions would be completely different if the same scenario were to play out in other places.

A ball is thrown upward with a speed of 40 m/s.  Gravity decreases its upward speed (increases its downward speed) by 9.8 m/s every second.

So, the ball reaches its highest point after (40 m/s)/(9.8 m/s²) = <em>4.08 seconds</em>. At that point, it runs out of upward gas, and begins falling.

Just like so many other aspects of life, the downward fall is an exact "mirror image" of the upward trip.  After another 4.08 seconds, the ball has returned to the height of the hand which flung it.  In total, the ball is in the air for <em>8.16 seconds</em> up and down.

1. James drives 400 km in 5 hours to his grandmothers. What are the units for speed going to be?
Airida [17]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

1. Speed is calculated as the ratio of distance and time. Hence, Jame's speed can be calculated as:

       400/5 km/hr = 80 km/hr

The unit for the speed would be km/hr. This can also be converted to m/s:

80 km = 80,000 m

1 hr = 3,600 s

80 km/hr = 80,000/3600 m/s = 22.22 m/s

2. Since James drove 400 km in 5 hours, the distance he drove is 400 km.

3. The time it took for James to get there is 5 hours.

If you weigh 882 N on EARTH (HINT: What number do we ALWAYS use for gravity on Earth), what is your mass? ​
Softa [21]
882 divided by 9.81 (this is acceleration due to gravity) it equals 89.91
