Answer:

c 8.80 s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of Empire State Building  = 380m

Unknown:

Time taken for King Kong to fall  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use one of the kinematics equation.

The appropriate one is given below;

      H  = ut + \frac{1}{2} g t²  

H is the height

t is the time taken

g is the acceleration due to gravity

            380  = (0 x t) + ( \frac{1}{2}  x 9.8 x t²)

           380  = 4.9t²  

             t²  = 77.55

              t = 8.8s

A ball thrown vertically upward is caught by the thrower after 2.93 s. Find the initial velocity of the ball. The acceleration o
almond37 [142]

Answer:

The initial velocity of the ball is 28.714 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

time of flight of the ball, t = 2.93 s

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

initial velocity of the ball, u = ?

The initial velocity of the ball is given by;

v = u + (-g)t

where;

v is the final speed of the ball at the given time, = 0

g is negative because of upward motion

0 = u -gt

u = gt

u = (9.8 x 2.93)

u = 28.714 m/s

Therefore, the initial velocity of the ball is 28.714 m/s
