An object is thrown upwards with a speed of 14 m/s. how long does it take to reach a height of 5.0 m above the projection point while descending?

2.43 s

Explanation:

Using newton's equation of motion.

T = (v-u)/g

Where T = time taken for the object to return to the point of projection , u = initial velocity, v = final velocity, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: v =-14 m/s, u = 14 m/s, g = -9.8 m/s²

T = (-14-14)/-9.81

T = 2.85 s

Note: We look for the object's speed at 5.0 m.

using

v² = u²+2gs Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, g = acceleration due to gravity, s = distance.

Given:  u = 14 m/s, g = -9.81 m/s², s = 5.0 m

Substitute into equation 1

v² = 14²+(-9.81×5×2)

v² = 196-98.1

v = √97.9

v = 9.89

We look for the time taken for the velocity to decrease from 14 m/s to 9.89 m/s.

using

v = u+gt

t =(v-u)/g Equation 2

Where t = time taken for the object to decrease it velocity from 14 m/s to 9.89 m/s

Given: v = 9.89 m/s, u =14 m/s g = -9.81 m/s²

t = (14-9.89)/-9.81

t = -4.11/-9.81

t = 0.42 s

Thus,

Time taken to reach 5.0 m above projection point = T-t

=2.85-0.42

2.43 s

Employment of medical scientists is projected to grow 17 percent from 2020 to 2030, much faster than the average for all occupations. About 12,600 openings for medical scientists are projected each year, on average, over the decade.
