Answer:

1.08 s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) reached = 1.45 m

Time of flight (T) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the kangaroo to return from the height of 1.45 m. This can be obtained as follow:

Height (h) = 1.45 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

1.45 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

1.45 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 1.45/4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(1.45/4.9)

t = 0.54 s

Note: the time taken to fall from the height(1.45m) is the same as the time taken for the kangaroo to get to the height(1.45 m).

Finally, we shall determine the total time spent by the kangaroo before returning to the earth. This can be obtained as follow:

Time (t) taken to reach the height = 0.54 s

Time of flight (T) =?

T = 2t

T = 2 × 0.54

T = 1.08 s

Therefore, it will take the kangaroo 1.08 s to return to the earth.

The figure above shows a rod that is fixed to a horizontal surface at pivot P The rod is initially rotating
Lisa [10]

The angular speed is decreasing and direction of rotation clockwise of the rod immediately after time t.

<h3></h3><h3>What is angular speed ?</h3>

The rate of change of angular displacement is defined as angular speed.  It is stated as follows:

ω = θ t

Where,

θ is the angle of rotation,

t is the time

ω is the angular velocity

The torque is found as;l

\rm  T = F \times r

If the force is acting on the rod  from the three point is the same, the value of the torque is depends upon the radius or the perpendicular distance.

The perpendicular distance of the right force is grater. Hence, the force acting on the right side is more, and the rod will rotate clockwise.

Both the forces are acting downwards. Thus, the resultant force is the less due to which the speed is increasing.

Hence, the angular speed is decreasing and direction of rotation clockwise of the rod immediately after time t.

To learn more about the angular speed, refer to the link;
