Answers
a ball is thrown vertically upward from top of the tower with speed of 100m/s it strike the pond near the base of the tower after 25 sec.
initial velocity of ball, u = 100m/s
time taken to strike the pond near the base of the tower , t = 25sec.
Let height of tower is H.
when ball is thrown upward, acceleration due to gravity acting on it, due to this after some time ball becomes rest.
let at h height from the top of tower ball becomes rest.
now using formula, v² = u² + 2as
or, 0 = (100)² + 2(-10) × h
or, h = 500m ....(1)
and time taken to reach h = 500m
v = u + at
or, 0 = 100 - 10t => t = 10s
hence, (25 - 10)s = 15s require to fall the ground
now ball is located at S = (H + 500)m
where velocity of ball , u = 0
and time taken to fall the ground, t = 15s
using formula, s = ut + 1/2 at²
or, -(H + 500) = 0 + 1/2 (-10) × (15)²
or, H + 500 = 5 × 225 = 1125
or, H = 1125 - 500 = 625m
hence, height of tower is 625m
