a stone is thrown vertically upwards with a velocity of 20 m per second determine the total time of flight of stone in air
1 answer:
Answer:
Explanation:
The best way to do this is to remember the rule about the halfway mark in a parabolic path. At a trajectory's half way point in its travels, it will be at its max height. To get the total time in the air, we take that time at half way and double it. Here's what we know that we are told:
initial velocity is 20 m/s
Here's what we know that we are NOT told:
a = -9.8 m/s/s and
final velocity is 0 at an object's max height in parabolic motion.
We will use the equation:
where v is final velocity and v0 is initial velocity. Filling in:
0 = 20 + (-9.8)t and
-20 = -9.8t so
t = 2 seconds. The stone reaches its max height 2 seconds after it is thrown; that means that after another 2 seconds it will be on the ground. Total air time is 4 seconds.

Answer:
F = 789 Newton
Explanation:
Given that,
Speed of the car, v = 10 m/s
Radius of circular path, r = 30 m
Mass of the passenger, m = 60 kg
To find :
The normal force exerted by the seat of the car when the it is at the bottom of the depression.
Solution,
Normal force acting on the car at the bottom of the depression is the sum of centripetal force and its weight.
N = 788.6 Newton
N = 789 Newton
So, the normal force exerted by the seat of the car is 789 Newton.
