The cork flew out of the bottle vertically upward at a speed of 20 m / s and is in free fall.
The cork flew out of the bottle vertically upward at a speed of 20 m / s and is in free fall. What speed will it have when it rises 15 m? How long will it take?
V0 = 20 m / s.
g = 9.8 m / s ^ 2.
h = 15 m.
V -?
t -?
1 way.
Let’s use the law of conservation of total mechanical energy.
Ek0 = En + Ek.
m * V0 ^ 2/2 = m * g * h + m * V ^ 2/2.
V0 ^ 2/2 = g * h + V ^ 2/2.
V ^ 2 = V0 ^ 2 – 2 * g * h.
V = √ (V0 ^ 2 – 2 * g * h).
V = √ ((20 m / s) ^ 2 – 2 * 9.8 m / s ^ 2 * 15 m) = 10.3 m / s.
Method 2.
The plug moves under the action of gravity with the acceleration of gravity g.
For equally slow motion, the lifting height h is determined by the formula: h = (V0 ^ 2 – V ^ 2) / 2 * g.
V0 ^ 2 – V ^ 2 = 2 * g * h.
V ^ 2 = V0 ^ 2 – 2 * g * h.
V = √ (V0 ^ 2 – 2 * g * h).
V = √ ((20 m / s) ^ 2 – 2 * 9.8 m / s ^ 2 * 15 m) = 10.3 m / s.
t = (V0 – V) / g.
t = (20 m / s – 10.3 m / s) / 9.8 m / s ^ 2 = 0.98 s.
Answer: the speed of the plug will be V = 10.3 m / s, t = 0.98 s.
