A red ball is thrown down with an initial speed of 1.1 m/s from a height of 28 meters above the ground. Then, 0.5 seconds after the red ball is thrown, a blue ball is thrown upward with an initial speed of 24.3 m/s, from a height of 0.9 meters above the ground. The force of gravity due to the earth results in the balls each having a constant downward acceleration of 9.81 m/s^2. What is the height of the blue ball 2 seconds after the red ball is thrown?
How long after the red ball is thrown are the two balls in the air at the same height?

Respuesta :

Answer:0.835 s

Explanation:

Given

Red ball initial velocity([tex]u_r[/tex])=1.1 m/s

height of building(h)=28 m

after 0.5 sec blue ball is thrown with a velocity([tex]u_b[/tex])=24.3 m/s

Height of blue after 2 sec red ball is thrown

i.e. height of blue ball at t=1.5 sec after blue ball is thrown upward

[tex]h=24.3\times 1.5-\frac{9.81\times 1.5^2}{2}=25.414 m[/tex]

therefore blue ball is at height of 25.414+0.9=26.314 from ground

moment after the two ball is at same height

for red ball

[tex]14=1.1\times \left ( t+0.5\right )+\frac{9.81\times \left ( t+0.5\right )^2}{2}-----1[/tex]

for blue ball

[tex]13.1=24.3\times t-\frac{9.81\times t^2}{2}-----2[/tex]

add 1 & 2

we get

[tex]27.1=1.1t+0.55+24.3t+\frac{g\left ( t+0.25\right )}{2}[/tex]

27.1=25.4t+0.55+4.905t+1.226

t=0.835 s
