Question

a Kangaroo is capable of jumping to a height of 2.5. Determine the takeoff speed of the kangaroo [g=10m/s²]​

Answer 1

Answer:

Google is the best way to get right answer

Answer 2

Answer:

The initial velocity of the kangaroo must be 7 m/s.

Explanation:

a = 9.8 m/s²

s = 2.5 m

v = 0 m/s

v² = u² + 2as

=> (0)² = u² + 2 * (-9.8) * 2.5

=> 0 = u² - 5 * 9.8

=> 0 = u² - 49

=> u² = 0 + 49

=> u² = 49

=> u = 7 m/s

So,

The initial velocity of the kangaroo must be 7 m/s.

Here, negative sign of acceleration shows that it is in the opposite direction of the velocity.
