Ryan throws a tennis ball vertically upward. The ball returns to the point of release after 3.5 s. What is the speed of the ball as it is released?

34.37 m/s

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity of a body with respect to time. Mathematically,

Acceleration = change in velocity/time

a = v-u/t

at = v-u

v = u+at

Since the ball is thrown vertically upward, the body acts under influence of gravity and the acceleration due to gravity is positive i.e a = -g

The equation becomes;

v = u-gt where

v is the final velocity of the ball = 0m/s (velocity on landing)

u is the initial velocity of the ball (the velocity at point of release)

t is the time = 3.5secs

g = 9.82m/s²

Substituting this values in the formula above;

0 = u - 9.82(3.5)

-u = - 34.37

u = 34.37m/s

igneous rocks also form where plates converge. the subducting plate melts as it sinks into the crust of the earth, and the melt rises into the overriding plate forming volcanoes. metamorphic rocks are formed mainly in the lithosphere, wherever there is high pressure and high temperature. -woods
