Answer:

83.67 m/s

Explanation:

Set up a calculation to convert units of measure to what you need.

You have km/s and you need m/s.

4.08km 1000 m 83.67m

----------- X ---------- = --------------- the km will cancel out and you are left

12.0 s 1 km s with m/s

Answer:

The ball reaches Barney head in $t = 8 \ s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The rise velocity is $v = 14.70 \ m/s$

The height considered is $h = 196 \ m$

The horizontal velocity of the large object is $v_h = 8.50 \ m/s$

Generally from kinematic equation

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2} gt^2$

Here s is the distance of the object from Barney head ,

u is the velocity of the object along the vertical axis which is equal but opposite to the velocity of the helicopter

$u = -14.7 m/s$

$196 = -14.7 t + \frac{1}{2} * 9.8 * t^2$

= $4.9 t^2 - 14.7t - 196 = 0$

Solving the above equation using quadratic formula

The value of t obtained is $t = 8 \ s$
