A small bag of sand is released from an ascending hot-air balloon whose upward constant velocity is v0 = 2.45 m/s. knowing that

at the time of the release the balloon was 98.8 m above the ground, determine the time, τ, it takes the bag to reach the ground from the moment of its release.

When you draw an illustration for this problem, you would come up with the same drawing as shown in the picture. As the hot-air balloon travels upwards, there is a slight time when the bag of sand rises up until it reaches the maximum height. Then, it goes back down to the ground. The total time would be t₁ + t₂. The solution is as follows:

H = v₀²/2g = (2.45)²/2(9.81) = 0.306 m
t₁ = H/v₀ = 0.306 m/2.45 m/s = 0.125 s

t₂ = √2(H + 98.8)/g = √2(0.306+ 98.8)/9.81
t₂ = 4.495 s

Total time = 0.125 s + 4.495 s = 4.62 seconds

Answer: a) 0.12m; b) 1,6 s; c) 0.625 1/s

Explanation: The simple harmonic movement can be described by a sin or cosine function  in time.

This can be in the form:

X(t)= A Sin/Cos (wt+φ) where φ is initial phase o position at t=0

w the angular frequency are related to the frequency (f) as 2Pif

and f=1/T period of oscillating
