Answer:
Maximum height reached by the ball is 32 meters.
Explanation:
It is given that,
If a baseball is project upwards from the ground level with an initial velocity of 32 feet per second, then it's height is a function of time. The equation is given as :
...........(1)
t is the time taken
s is the height attained as a function of time.
Maximum height achieved can be calculated as :
-16 t + 32 = 0
t = 2 seconds
Put the value of t in equation (1) as :
s = 32 meters
So, the maximum height reached by the ball is 32 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
Explanation:
1. Force applied on an object is given by :
F = W = mg
(a) A 160 lb human being, F = 160 lb
g = acceleration due to gravity, g = 32 ft/s²
m = 5 kg
(b) A 1.9 lb cockatoo, F = 1.9 lb
m = 0.059 kg
2. (a) A 2300 kg rhinoceros, m = 2300 kg
(b) A 22 g song sparrow, m = 22 g = 0.022 kg
Hence, this is the required solution.
