Algebra.Com's Answer #77473 by scott8148(6628) You can put this solution on YOUR website! the general equation is h=(-gt^2)/2+(v0)t+h0; where h=height, g=gravitational acceleration, v0=initial velocity, h0=initial height, and t=time of flight\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "for 5), solve the general equation for t when h=0 (on the ground) \n" ); document.write( "...then use v=-gt+v0 to find the impact velocity\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "for 7), you know all the values except for h0 in the general equation, so just plug in \n" ); document.write( " |
