What is the maximum height achieved if a 0.400 kg mass is thrown straight upward with an initial speed of 40.0 m⋅s−1? Ignore the effect of air resistance

Sagot :

The maximum height : 81.63 m

Further explanation

Given

0.4 kg mass

vo = initial speed = 40 m/s

Required

the maximum height

Solution

We can use the law of conservation energy(ME=PE+KE) or use parabolic motion

For parabolic motion :

h max = (vo²sin²θ)/2g

θ = 90°(straight upward)

Input the value :

h max = (40²sin²90°)/2 x 9.8

h max = 81.63 m
