A steel ball is launched at 25 degrees above horizontal from the top of a platform that is 15 meters above ground. If the initial speed is 10m/sec, what is the final speed when it strikes the ground?
rqu1ntana said:from all the data given this is what it looks like, Vf=(102-(2*9.8*(-15)))1/2
The result i get from this is 13.56m/sec, i this right?
The final speed can be calculated using the formula v = u + at, where v is the final speed, u is the initial speed, a is the acceleration, and t is the time.
The final speed is the speed at the end of a given time period, while average speed is the total distance covered divided by the total time taken. Average speed is a measure of the overall speed throughout the entire journey, while final speed only reflects the speed at one point in time.
If there is no acceleration, the final speed can be calculated using the formula v = u, where v is the final speed and u is the initial speed. This means that the final speed will be equal to the initial speed if there is no change in acceleration.
Mass does not directly affect final speed. However, the acceleration of an object is inversely proportional to its mass, meaning that a heavier object will have a lower acceleration and therefore a lower final speed compared to a lighter object.
Yes, final speed can be greater than initial speed if the object is accelerating. If the object is decelerating, the final speed will be less than the initial speed. However, if there is no acceleration, the final speed will be equal to the initial speed.
