Answer:
The initial velocity is 50 m/s.
(C) is correct option.
Explanation:
Given that,
Time = 10 sec
For first half,
We need to calculate the height
Using equation of motion

....(I)
For second half,
We need to calculate the time
Using equation of motion



Put the value of h from equation (I)


According to question,


Put the value of t₁ and t₂



Here, g = 10
The initial velocity is


Hence, The initial velocity is 50 m/s.
Answer:
4.4 seconds
Explanation:
Given:
a = -5.5 m/s²
v₀ = 0 m/s
y₀ = 53 m
y = 0 m
Find: t
y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²
0 = 53 + 0 + ½ (-5.5) t²
0 = 53 − 2.75 t²
t = 4.39
Rounded to two significant figures, it takes 4.4 seconds for the object to land.
That's Newton's 1st law of motion, sometimes called the inertia law.
