Answer:
Explanation:
To solve this problem we use the formula for accelerated motion:
We will take the initial position as our reference () and the downward direction as positive. Since the rock departs from rest we have:
Which means our acceleration would be:
Using our values:
Answer:
t₂ = 3.89 s
Explanation:
given,
speed of car = 23 m/s
speed of motorcycle = 23 m/s
after time of 4 s distance between them is equal to = 53 m
motorcycle accelerates at = 7 m/s
time taken to catch up with car = ?
let t₂ be the time in which motorcycle catches car.
distance traveled by car in t₂ s
d = 23 t₂ + 53
distance traveled by motorcycle
using equation of motion
now, equating both the distances
t₂ = 3.89 s
time taken by the motorcycle to catch the car is equal to 3.89 s
