. an object is thrown vertically upward with initial velocity 40 m/s . than what will be the maximum height reached by the object (take g=10m/s2)
Answers
Answer:
Initial Velocity (u) = 40m/s
Final Velocity (v) = 0m/s { after height , h}
g = -10m/s²
Using velocity-position relation:
v² = u² + 2gh
0² = 40² + 2×(-10)×h
-1600 = -20h
h = 80m.
Hope it helps you!
Figure regards this question:
Provided that:
- Initial velocity = 40 m/s
- g = -10 m/s sq.
- Final velocity = 0 m/s
Don't be confused!
• I write g as -10 m/s sq. except of +10 m/s sq. because the object is thrown upwards that's why acceleration due to gravity, g came as negative.
• Final velocity cames as zero because when the object is thrown then it stops at a particular point or at a height therefore, it's final velocity cames as zero.
To calculate:
- The maximum height
Solution:
- The maximum height = 80 metres
Using concept:
- Third equation of motion
Using formula:
Where, v denotes final velocity, u denotes initial velocity, g denotes acceleration due to the gravity and s denotes displacement or distance or height!
