The height of the ceiling in the school gym from the floor is 11.48m.

HOW TO CALCULATE HEIGHT OF A PROJECTILE:

  • Using one of the equations of motion as follows:

v² = u² + 2as

Where;

v = final velocity (m/s)

u = initial velocity (m/s)

a = gravitational acceleration (m/s²)

s = distance traveled (m)

According to this question,

  • The final velocity (v) of the volleyball is 15m/s
  • The initial velocity is 0m/s
  • The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8m/s

Using the formula, v² = u² + 2as, the height of the ceiling (s) can be calculated as follows:

15² = 0² + 2 (9.8) (s)

225 = 0 + 19.6s

225 = 19.6s

s = 225/19.6

s = 11.48m

Therefore, the height of the ceiling in the school gym from the floor is 11.48m

Answer:

11.47 m

Explanation:

Givens

vi =   15 m/s

a = - 9.81 m/s^2

vf = 0

d = ?

Formula

vf^2 = vi^2 + 2ad

Solution

0 = (15)^2 + 2*(-9.81)*d

- 225 = 2 * - 9.81 *d

-225 = - 19.62 * d

d = - 225/-19.62

d = 11.47 m

Develop a hypothesis regarding how using contaminated or purified water might affect plant biodiversity. which pot do you believ
Juli2301 [7.4K]
Contaminated water such as polluted water can sometimes cause an explosion of new plant growth by providing necessary nutrients and food and at other times it can kill or harm plants such as by raising or lowering acidity. Plants need at least good levels of potassium, nitrogen and phosphorus for healthy growth and by corollary, biodiversity. I believe that water which contains these elements, even if it be contaminated with the right contaminants will aid in biodiversity by enhancing growth. On the other hand, if there is too much salt, for example in the water it will prevent growth and inhibit photosynthesis.
