Problema Solution

a projectile is fired vertically upward with an initial velocity of 40m/s. Find the position and velocity of the projectile at 1, 3, 5 and 7 s ?

Answer provided by our tutors

we have v=v0-gt

position: h=vot-1/2*gt^2

at 1s: v=40-10=30m/s

h=40-5=35m

at 3s : v=40-30=10m/s

h=40*3-5*9=75m

at 5s: v=40-50=-10m/s

h=75

at 7s: v=40-70=-30m/s

h=35m
