The position of an object in a gravity field is given by: S = 1/2 * a *t ^2 + v * t + x So making the assumption that both are subject to Earth's gravity, a = - 9.81 m/s^2 (negative acting down). Assuming the top stone starts at rest, V_top = 0 m/s, V_bottom = 25 m/s. Taking the problem statement, x_top = 100 m and x_bottom = 0 m. If you want the time when they impact one another, set the two position equations equal and solve for t: 1/2* - 9.81 * t ^2 + 0 + 100 = 1/2 * -9.81 * t^2 + 25 * t + 0 So the acceleration terms cancel, and t = 4 seconds. To check, solve both position equations at t = 4 s. S = 1/2 * -9.81 * 4 ^2 + 0 + 100 = 21.52 m S = 1/2 * -9.81 * 4 ^ 2 + 25 * 4 + 0 = 21.52 m So there you go. The time is 4 seconds, the position is 21.52 m above the ground.
What else can I help you with?
If a rock is dropped and it's speed increases from 0 to 4.9 in about 3 seconds. what is the acceleration?
Assuming that your units of velocity are in units/second Acceleration = (velocity 2 - velocity 1) / time Acceleration = (4.9 - 0) / 3 Acceleration =1.63 *With correct significant figures the answer is 2
If a small marble is dropped straight downward what is the initial velocity of the marble?
The initial velocity is zero. In most basic physics problems like this one the initial velocity will be zero as a rule of thumb: the initial velocity is always zero, unless otherwise stated, or this is what you are solving for Cases where the initial velocity is not zero examples a cannon ball is shot out of a cannon at 50 mph a ball is thrown from at a speed of 15 mph etc
What is the velocity of a ball in meters per second that drops from a roof and the speed was at 3.03 seconds?
If the ball was dropped from a roof and hit the ground 3.03 seconds later, then when it hit the groundits velocity was 29.694 meters (97.42 feet) per second (rounded) downward.
What would be the change in velocity for a 10 gram object dropped from the roof of a 20 meter building if it takes 2 seconds to reach the ground Hint acceleration due to gravity is 98 ms²?
In two seconds of fall, the speed increases 19.6 meters (64.4 feet) per second. The magnitude of velocity increases by that amount, while the direction of velocity doesn't change.
An object with a mass of 8 kg is dropped and takes 2 s to hit the ground. Then another object with a mass of 16 kg is dropped from the same point. How long does it take to hit the ground?
2s
Does a ball dropped with horizontal velocity take longer to hit the ground than on dropped at rest?
No, both balls will hit the ground at the same time, assuming they are dropped from the same height and in a vacuum. The horizontal velocity does not affect the time it takes for an object to fall vertically due to gravity.
What is the minimum velocity required to project a body from a height h so that it will not fall back on earth?
The minimum velocity required to project a body from a height h so that it will not fall back to Earth is called the escape velocity. This velocity must be equal to or greater than the escape velocity, which is derived using the principle of conservation of energy and the gravitational force equation. The escape velocity is given by the equation v = sqrt(2 * g * h), where v is the escape velocity, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height from which the object is projected.
If i dropped a penny off an airplane and it hits your head can it kill you?
I say NO. If you mean it is dropped and falls vertically. Discover Channel's "Myth Busters" tried to determine if a bullet would kill you if it was fired directly vertical and falls on its own. The bullet or penny would fall at terminal velocity which is about 120mph. However, they will tumble which slows them down more. This velocity and their mass is not enough to kill you.
Will a ball drop from rest reach the ground guicker than the one launched from the same height but with an initial horizontal velocity?
No, both balls will hit the ground at the same time if they are dropped from rest or launched horizontally from the same height. The initial horizontal velocity does not affect the time it takes for an object to fall vertically to the ground.
Why velocity is non zero when ball dropped to the ground?
When a ball is dropped, it starts with an initial velocity of zero. However, as it falls towards the ground, it accelerates due to gravity, causing its velocity to increase. Therefore, the velocity of the ball is non-zero as it falls towards the ground.
How does the height from which an object was dropped affect its average velocity?
The height from which an object is dropped does not affect its average velocity. Average velocity depends on the overall displacement and time taken to achieve that displacement, regardless of the initial height of the object.
What is a missile?
a missle is a kind of bomb# An object or weapon that is fired, thrown, dropped, or otherwise projected at a target; a projectile. # A guided missile. # A ballistic missile. # An object or weapon that is fired, thrown, dropped, or otherwise projected at a target; a projectile. # A guided missile. # A ballistic missile.
An aeroplane flying at a constant velocity releases a bomb. As the bomb drops down from the aeroplane what will be the position of the bomb with respect to the plane?
There are two forces on the bomb when it is dropped; horizontal, and vertical. The vertical force is gravity, and the horizontal force is the velocity of the plane when the bomb is dropped. In order to determine how far away the bomb will drop from the initial point of release, it is necessary to know the height that the plane is at, and the velocity of the plane, which is also the initial horizontal velocity of the bomb (it is constant, neglecting air resistence.)
What is the velocity of a 25 cents dropped a tower from after 10 seconds?
98
What is the velocity of a dropped object after it has fallen for 3.0?
The final velocity of a dropped object can be calculated using the equation v = gt, where v is the final velocity, g is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately 9.81 m/s^2), and t is the time the object has fallen. Plugging in the values, the final velocity of a dropped object after falling for 3.0 seconds would be 29.43 m/s.
A bullet is fired horizontally out of a gun at the same time another is dropped from the end of the barrelthe one to hit the ground first is?
The bullet fired horizontally will hit the ground first, given that it has an initial horizontal velocity that keeps it moving forward from the moment it leaves the gun. On the other hand, the bullet dropped from the end of the barrel only has the force of gravity acting on it, causing it to fall vertically, which is slower than the horizontal motion of the fired bullet.
Velocity time graph for a body dropped from a certain height?
The velocity-time graph for a body dropped from a certain height would show an initial spike in velocity as the object accelerates due to gravity, reaching a maximum velocity when air resistance equals the force of gravity. After this, the velocity would remain constant, representing free fall with a terminal velocity. When the object hits the ground, the velocity suddenly drops to zero.
