- At the Earth's surface, a projectile is launched straight up at a speed of 7.5 km/s. To what height will it rise? Ignore air resistance. 2.87e+06 Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%. Double check your calculations. marrow_forwardConsider the following descriptions of the vertical motion of an object subject only to the acceleration due to gravity. Begin with the acceleration equation a(t) = v'(t) = g, where g= - 9.8 m/s. a. Find the velocity of the object for all relevant times. b. Find the position of the object for all relevant times. c. Find the time when the object reaches its highest point. What is the height? d. Find the time when the object strikes the ground.

- At a moment when a rocket is 1120 m above the ground, it is traveling straight upward with a speed of 955 m/s. At this instant a small piece detaches from the rocket and begins freefall travel. 1. a) Find the velocity of the piece the instant before it hits the ground. b) Find the time required for it to reach the ground.arrow_forwardycla 3. A car travelling at 122 km/h strikes a tree, the front end of the car compresses, and the driver comes to rest after traveling 0.558 m. What was the average acceleration of the driver during the collision? Express your answer in terms of g's (1.00g = 9.80 m/s'). g's %3D Given the fact that humans can withstand a maximum of 25 g's for a short time without brainy injury, what would the condition of this driver most likely be?
