Question

if a particle is thrown upward with speed 40 metre per second and the distance travelled by the particle in last second of its upward journey is

Answer 1

Answer:

Total distance travelled by body = H

Distance travelled by body in last second = d

H = u^2 / (2g)

= 40^2 / (2 * 9.8)

= 1600 / 19.6 m

= 81.63 m

Time taken by body to reach height H is sqrt(2H/g)

= sqrt(2 * 81.63 / 9.8)

= 4.08 seconds

Use equation of motion...,

S = ut + 0.5at^2

H - d = 40*(t - 1) - 0.5g(t - 1)^2

81.63 - d = 40 * (4.08 - 1) - 0.5*9.8*(4.08 - 1)^2

81.63 - d = 76.71

d = 81.63 - 76.71

d = 4.9 m

hence, 4.9m is travelled.
