Answer:
a) 20s
b) 500m

Explanation:
Given the initial velocity = 100 m/s, acceleration = -10m/s^2 (since it is moving up, acceleration is negative), and at the maximum height, the ball is not moving so final velocity = 0 m/s.

To find time, we apply the UARM formula:

v final = (a x t) + v initial

Replacing the values gives us:

0 = (-10 x t) + 100

-100 = -10t

t = 10s

It takes 10s for the the ball to reach its max height, but it must also go down so it takes 2 trips, once going up and then another one going down, both of which take the same time to occur

So 10s going up and another 10s going down:

10x2 = 20s

b) Now that we have v final = 0, v initial = 100, a = -10, t = 10s (10s because maximum displacement means the displacement from the ground to the max height) we can easily find the displacement by applying the second formula of UARM:

Δy = (1/2)(a)(t^2) + (v initial)(t)

Replacing the values gives us:

Δy = (1/2)(-10)(10^2) + (100)(10)

= (-5)(100) + 1000

= -500 + 1000

= 500 m

Hope this helps, brainliest would be appreciated :)

The position-time equation for a cheetah chasing an antelope is:
pochemuha

Answer:

x = 1.6 + 1.7 t^2      omitting signs

a) at t = 0     x = 1.6 m

b) V = d x / d t = 3.4 t

at t = 0     V = 0

c) A = d^2 x / d t^2 = 3.4     (at t = 0  A = 3.4 m/s^2)

d)  x = 1.6 + 1.7 * (4.4)^2 = 34.5    (position at 4.4 sec = 34.5 m)

How much total energy is dissipated in 10. seconds
noname [10]

Answer : Total energy dissipated is 10 J

Explanation :

It is given that,

Time. t = 10 s

Resistance of the resistors, R = 4-ohm

Current, I = 0.5 A

Power used is given by :

P=\dfrac{E}{t}

Where

E is the energy dissipated.

So, E = P t.............(1)

Since, P=I^2R

So equation (1) becomes :

E=I^2Rt

E=(0.5\ A)^2\times 4\Omega \times 10\ s

E=10\ J

So, the correct option is (3)

Hence, this is the required solution.

How does 'g' vary from place to place?​
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Explanation:

The acceleration g varies by about 1/2 of 1 percent with position on Earth's surface, from about 9.78 metres per second per second at the Equator to approximately 9.83 metres per second per second at the poles.
