A ball is thrown vertically upwards with an initial velocity of from the edge of a cliff that is above ground level. Taking the acceleration due to gravity , what is the total time elapsed before the ball hits the ground?
- A
- B
- Cevap
- D
Cevap
The total time elapsed before the ball hits the ground is .
Using the displacement equation with downward taken as negative, the net displacement when the ball reaches the ground is . Setting up the equation: , which simplifies to . Factoring gives , yielding .
