What is its velocity after 6 seconds?

After 6 seconds the velocity of a freefalling object accelerates at approximately 10 m/s2.

When a ball is thrown vertically upwards it experiences acceleration due to gravity?

Figure 1. Direction of velocity and acceleration for a ball thrown up in the air. Acceleration from gravity is always constant and downward, but the direction and magnitude of velocity change.

What is the displacement of the ball?

Displacement is the distance between an object’s initial position and its final position and is usually measured or defined along a straight line. Since this is a calculation that measures distance, the standard unit is the meter (m).

How do you calculate vertical displacement?

x = vix • t As can be seen in the diagram above, the vertical distance fallen from rest during each consecutive second is increasing (i.e., there is a vertical acceleration). It can also be seen that the vertical displacement follows the equation above (y = 0.5 • g • t2).

What is the initial velocity of the ball thrown vertically upwards?

A ball is thrown vertically upwards with a velocity of 49 m/s. Calculate (1) The maximum height to which it rises. (2) The total time it takes to return to the surface of the earth. Initial velocity of the ball (u) = 49m/s.

What is the velocity of a ball moving in an elevator?

An elevator is goning vertically up with a constant acceleration of 2 m/s 2. At the instant when its velocity is 4 m/s a ball is projected from the floor of the elevator with a speed of 4 m/s relative to the floor with an angular elevation of 60 o.

What is the maximum height to which the ball will rise?

(1) The maximum height to which the ball rises = 122.5 m (2) The total time ball takes to return to the surface of the earth = 5 + 5 = 10 sec. Was this answer helpful?

Why does an object thrown upwards come down after reaching a point?

Why an object thrown upwards comes down after reaching a point? When an object is thrown with certain initial velocity (say V), it gains a Kinetic energy at that moment of throwing. As it moves upwards from its initial position (wherefrom it’s thrown) and gains height, its potential energy rises.
