During upward projection the final velocity is zero, and the gravitational acceleration is -10 m/s² (against the gravity).
Therefore; using the equation;
S = 1/2gt² + ut
Where s is the height h, g is gravitational acceleration, and t is the time and u is the initial velocity u, is 16 ft/s.
Thus; h= 1/2(-10)t² + 16t
We get; h = -5t² + 16t
Therefore; the quadratic equation is 5t² - 16t + h =0
Answer:
Newton's third law is: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Explanation:
The statement means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects. The size of the forces on the first object equals the size of the force on the second object.
Answer:
19.6N
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of rock = 2kg
Speed = 30m/s
Unknown:
Net force on the rock = ?
Solution:
The net force acting on this rock is a function of the acceleration due to gravity acting upon it.
Net force = weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity
Net force = 2 x 9.8 = 19.6N downward
