A stone is thrown vertically upward with an initial velocity of 40 m/s

Monjur Alahi

A stone is thrown vertically upward with an initial velocity of 40 m/s. Taking g = 10 m/s2 , find the maximum height reached by the stone. What is the net displacement and the total distance covered by the stone?

According to the equation of motion under gravity v2 − u2 = 2gs 

Where, 

u = Initial velocity of the stone = 40 m/s 

v = Final velocity of the stone = 0 m/s 

s = Height of the stone 

g = Acceleration due to gravity = −10 ms−2 

Let h be the maximum height attained by the stone. 

Therefore, 0 2 − 402 = 2(−10)ℎ ⇒ ℎ = (40×40) / 20 = 80  

Therefore, total distance covered by the stone during its upward and downward 

journey = 80 + 80 = 160 m 

Net displacement during its upward and downward journey = 80 + (−80) = 0.

When a ball is thrown vertically upwards, its velocity goes on decreasing

According to the law of conservation, energy can neither be created nor be destroyed but can transform from one form to another.  Therefore, K.E. Lost by the ball = P.E. gained...

Suppose a ball of mass m is thrown vertically upward with an initial speed v, its speed decreases continuously till it becomes zero.

Law of conservation of momentum is applicable to isolated system (no external force is applied). In this case, the change in velocity is due to the gravitational force of earth.
