1. The height of the tower is 24.5 m.
2. The velocity of the ball on reaching the ground is 29.4 m/s.
Explanation:
Given:
Initial velovity of ball 'u' = 19.6 m/s
Time taken by ball to reach ground 't' = 5 sec.
Gravity 'g' = 9.8 m/s
Solution:
we know that,
⇒ g = v/t
⇒ t = v/g
=19.6/9.8
So, ⇒ t = 2 sec.
it means time taken to reach max. height is 2 seconds.
It means 2 seconds are taken by the ball to reach back to tower and rest of 1 second to reach to ground.
it means first two seconds are taken to make final velocity 'v' is zero (max. height).
⇒ v = 0 m/s
Time taken is 1 second to calculate height of tower (written above).
So, using equation of motion,
⇒ s = ut +1/2at^2
⇒ s = 19.6 x 1 +1/2 x 9.8 x 1
⇒ s = 24.5 m
From zero initial velocity at time 2 seconds to ground where time is 5 seconds. Now, time taken is 3 seconds from max. height to ground.
now, ⇒ v = u + at
⇒ v = 0 + 9.8 x 3
⇒ v = 29.4 m/s
