Refer to the diagram shown below.

When the ball attains maximum height, it will have zero vertical velocity.
The maximum height, h. obeys the equation
0 = (22 m/s)² - 2*(9.8 m/s²)*(h m)
h = 22²/(2*9.8) = 24.694 m

Answer: The maximum height attained is 24.7 m (nearest tenth)

Part b.
The vertical height traveled by the ball obeys the equation
h = (22 m/s)t - (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(t s)²
where
h = vertical height, m
g = 9.8 m/s², acceleration due to gravity
t = time, s

To find how long the ball stays in the air, set h = 0 to obtain
4.9t² - 22t = 0
t(4.9t - 22) = 0
t = 0, or t = 22/4.9 = 4.49 s
t = 0 corresponds to the launch, and t = 4.49 s corresponds to when the ball retuns to the ground.

Answer: The ball stays in the air for 4.5 s (nearest tenth)

What is the kinetic energy of a 1,350kg car traveling at a speed of 12m/s?
Ainat [17]
Kinetic energy= 1/2 m v^2

so... 1/2(1350)(12^2)

kinetic energy = 97200Joules

What is the difference between each distance traveled and displacement travled
-BARSIC- [3]

Displacement is a vector magnitude that depends on the position of the body which is individualistic for the trajectory.

While, Distance is a scalar magnitude that measures over the trajectory.

Sound waves travel fastest through a A) gas. B) liquid. C) solid. D) vacuum.
earnstyle [38]

Sound waves travel faster through <em>solids</em> than they do through gases or liquids.  <em>(C)  </em>They don't travel through vacuum at all.

Example:

Speed of sound in normal air . . . around 340 m/s

Speed of sound in water . . . around 1,480 m/s

Speed of sound in iron . . . around 5,120 m/s
