a kangaroo jumps to a vertical height of 2.8 m. How long was it in the air before returning to earth

Respuesta :

the answer would be 2.8m height on earth takes 
2.8=1/2*9.8*t^2 => s = ut +1/2at^2 

The total time for which the kangaroo remains in the air will be "1.51 s".

According to the question,

The initial velocity will be:

→ [tex]v^2 = u^2 +2 ah[/tex]

or,

→ [tex]u = \sqrt{v^2 - 2gh}[/tex]

By substituting the values, we get

      [tex]= \sqrt{(0)^2-2(-9.8)(2.8)}[/tex]

      [tex]= 7.41 \ m/s[/tex]

Now,

The time of ascent will be:

→ [tex]v = u+at[/tex]

or,

→ [tex]t = \frac{v-u}{-g}[/tex]

     [tex]= \frac{0-7.41}{-9.8}[/tex]

     [tex]= 0.756 \ s[/tex]

hence,

The total time will be:

→ [tex]t_{tot} = 0.756+0.756[/tex]

         [tex]= 1.51 \ s[/tex]

Thus the above response is right.
