A ball is thrown so that its initial vertical and horizontal components of velocity are 30 m/s and 15 m/s, respectively. Estimate the maximum height the ball reaches. (Use 10 m/s2 as the acceleration of gravity.) 101 Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect.

H = 45 m

Explanation:

First we find the launch velocity of the ball by using the following formula:

v₀ = √(v₀ₓ² + v₀y²)

where,

v₀ = launching velocity = ?

v₀ₓ = Horizontal Component of Launch Velocity = 15 m/s

v₀y = Vertical Component of Launch Velocity = 30 m/s

Therefore,

v₀ = √[(15 m/s)² + (30 m/s)²]

v₀ = 33.54 m/s

Now, we find the launch angle of the ball by using the following formula:

θ = tan⁻¹ (v₀y/v₀ₓ)

θ = tan⁻¹ (30/15)

θ = tan⁻¹ (2)

θ = 63.43°

Now, the maximum height attained by the ball is given by the formula:

H = (v₀² Sin² θ)/2g

H = (33.54 m/s)² (Sin² 63.43°)/2(10 m/s²)

H = 45 m

layers of the earth affect the waves and these effects are seen on instruiments such as seimometers

one "light year" is the distance that light travels, through vacuum, in one julian year.   that's 365.25 days, of 24 hours each.
