Air resistance is ignored.
g = 9.8 m/s².
At maximum height, the vertical velocity is zero.
Let h = the maximum height reached.
Let u = the vertical launch velocity.
Because ot takes 5.0 seconds to reach maximum height, therefore
(u m/s) - (9.8 m/s²)*(5 s) = 0
u = 49 m/s
The maximum height reached is
h = (49 m/s)*(5 s) - (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(5 s)²
= 122.5 m
Answer: 122.5 m
The kinetic energy K = 0.5 * m * v² must be equal to the potential energy U = m * g * h.
m mass
v velocity
h height
g = 9.81m/s²
The mass m cancels out:
0.5 * v² = g * h
Solve for height h and transform to distance traveled.
(sin (4°) = height / distance)
C.) Mitochondria is the answer...
