Jen is capable of jumping to a height of 1.10 m. Determine her take-off speed and hang time.

Respuesta :

The kinematics allows to find the answers to this exercise of vertical launching are;

  • Initial velocity is 4.60 m / s
  • Time to maximum height t = 0.474 s
  • The time to return to the starting point t = 0.947 s

The vertical launch is a part of the kinematics that analyzes the vertical movement of the body, in this case the acceleration of the system is the acceleration of gravity (g = 9.8 m / s²).

let's set a frame of reference where the upward direction is taken as positive

           v² = v₀² - 2 g y

Where v and v₀ are the current and initial velocities, respectively, g the acceleration e and the height

In this case, when the body reaches the highest part, its velocity is zero.

         0 = vo² - 2 gy

         v₀ = [tex]\sqrt{2gy}[/tex]

         v₀ = [tex]\sqrt{2 \ 9.8 \ 1.10}[/tex]

         v₀ = 4.64 m / s

The time it takes to get to this point is

         v = v₀ - g t

          0 = v₀ -gt

         t = [tex]\frac{v_o}{g}[/tex]

         t = [tex]\frac{4.64}{9.8}[/tex]

         t = 0.474 s

The time it takes for the entire movement can be calculated with

         y = v₀ t - ½ g t²

           

When it reaches the ground its height is zero

         0 = 4.64 t - ½ 9.8 t²

         0 = t (4.64 - 4.9 t)

The solutions of this equation are

         t = 0 s

This time corresponds to the moment of leaving the body

        t = 4.64 / 4.9

        t = 0.947 s

In conclusion using kinematics we can find the answers are;

  • Initial velocity is 4.60 m / s
  • Time to maximum height t = 0.474 s
  • The time to return to the starting point t = 0.947 s
