Answer: 4 s

Explanation:

Given

The ball leaves the hand of student with a speed of u=19\ m/s

When the hand is h=2.5\ m above the ground

Using the equation of motion we can write

h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Substitute the values

\Rightarrow 2.5=-19t+0.5\times 9.8t^2\\\Rightarrow 4.9t^2-19t-2.5=0\\\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{19\pm \sqrt{(-19)^2-4\times 4.9\times (-2.5)}}{2\times 19}\\\Rightarrow t=4.0049\quad [\text{Neglecting the negative value of }t]

Thus, the ball will take 4 s to hit the ground.

A boy rows a rowboat across a river. The boat moves at 4.3 m/s at a direction of 25°
NikAS [45]

East component: 3.9 m/s

South component: 1.8 m/s

Explanation:

We have to resolve the velocity vector along the east and south axis.

Taking east as positive x-direction and south as positive y-direction, the components of the velocity are given by:

v_x = v cos \theta\\v_y = v sin \theta

where

v = 4.3 m/s is the magnitude of the velocity

\theta=25^{\circ} is the angle between the direction of the velocity and of the x-axis

Substituting into the equations, we find:

East component:

v_x = (4.3)(cos 25^{\circ})=3.9 m/s

South component:

v_y = (4.3)(sin 25^{\circ})=1.8 m/s

Gravitational forces between two objects decrease as the objects
get farther apart. 

That's a big part of the reason why the Earth attracts us with more
force than Jupiter does.
