Question

A ball is dropped from a height of 20 meters if its velocity increases uniformly at the rate of 10m/s with what velocity will it strike the ground calculate the time taken a d the distance covered

Answer 1

h= 20. g= 10
v= root 2gh
v= 20 m/sec.
v= gt
t = 2 sec
dist covered= 20 m

Answer 2

ɢɪᴠᴇɴ

ɪɴɪᴛɪᴀʟ ᴠᴇʟᴏᴄɪᴛʏ(ᴜ) = 0 ᴍ/ꜱ

ᴀᴄᴄᴇʟᴇʀᴀᴛɪᴏɴ (ᴀ) = 10 ᴍ/ꜱ²

ᴛɪᴍᴇ(ꜱ) = 20 ᴍ

ᴡᴇ ᴋɴᴏᴡ

ᴠ² = ᴜ² + 2ᴀꜱ

ᴘᴜᴛᴛɪɴɢ ᴠᴀʟᴜᴇꜱ:

ᴠ² = 0² + 2 (10 x 20)

ᴠ² = 400

ᴠ = 20 ᴍ/ꜱ

ꜰᴏʀ ᴛɪᴍᴇ:

ᴠ = ᴜ + ᴀᴛ

ᴛ = ᴠ - ᴜ/ᴀ

ᴛ = (20-0)10

  = 20/10

  = 2

∴ ꜱᴛʀɪᴋɪɴɢ ᴠᴇʟᴏᴄɪᴛʏ = 20 ᴍ/ꜱ

∴ ꜱᴛʀɪᴋɪɴɢ ᴛɪᴍᴇ = 2 ꜱᴇᴄᴏɴᴅꜱ
