Answer:
Explanation:
The best way to do this is to remember the rule about the halfway mark in a parabolic path. At a trajectory's half way point in its travels, it will be at its max height. To get the total time in the air, we take that time at half way and double it. Here's what we know that we are told:
initial velocity is 20 m/s
Here's what we know that we are NOT told:
a = -9.8 m/s/s and
final velocity is 0 at an object's max height in parabolic motion.
We will use the equation:
where v is final velocity and v0 is initial velocity. Filling in:
0 = 20 + (-9.8)t and
-20 = -9.8t so
t = 2 seconds. The stone reaches its max height 2 seconds after it is thrown; that means that after another 2 seconds it will be on the ground. Total air time is 4 seconds.
Answer:
T = 295.57 s
Explanation:
given,
mass of the rocket = 200 Kg
mass of the fuel = 100 Kg
acceleration = 35 m/s²
time, t = 35 s
time taken by the rocket to hit the ground, = ?
Final speed of the rocket when fuel is empty
using equation of motion
v = u + a t
v = 0 + 35 x 35
v = 1225 m/s
height of the rocket where fuel is empty
v² = u² + 2 a s
1225² = 0 + 2 x 35 x h₁
h₁ = 21437.5 m
After 35 s the rocket will be moving upward till the final velocity becomes zero.
Now, using equation of motion to find the height after 35 s
v² = u² + 2 g h₂
0² = 1225² + 2 x (-9.8) h₂
h₂ = 76562.5 m
total height = h₁ + h₂
= 76562.5 m + 21437.5 m = 98000 m
now, time taken by before the rocket hit the ground
using equation of motion
negative sign is used because the distance travel by the rocket is downward.
4.9 t² - 1225 t - 13500 = 0
t = 260.57 s
neglecting the negative sign
total time the rocket was in air
T = t₁ + t₂
T = 35 + 260.57
T = 295.57 s
Time for which rocket was in air is equal to 295.57 s.
