horizontal distance is not relevant here since we want to find the time it takes to cross a vertical distance only
use kinematics equation 3 to solve for t
zarkam21:
x=0.35+1/2(9.8)(2.1)
Vocaloid:
delta x is the distance
we are solving for time not distance
zarkam21:
0.35=d+1/2(9.8(2.1)

Vocaloid:
the vertical initial velocity is 0
zarkam21:
ugh
zarkam21:
so set it equal to 0
Vocaloid:
v0 needs to be 0 yes
zarkam21:
0=d+1/2(9.8(2.1)

Vocaloid:
the equation is
deltax = v0 + (1/2)at^2
Vocaloid:
substitute deltax, v0, a, then solve for t
zarkam21:
deltax=0+(1/2)(2.1)t
Vocaloid:
a is the acceleration due to gravity
again, horizontal velocity is not relevant here
Vocaloid:
also it is t^2 not just t

zarkam21:
0+(1/2)(9.8)t^2
Vocaloid:
good, solve for t
zarkam21:
wait what is it equal to 0?
Vocaloid:
deltax = ?
zarkam21:
the disrance

zarkam21:
so 0.35
Vocaloid:
good, now solve for t
zarkam21:
0.3
zarkam21:
B
Vocaloid:
let's try to keep a few more sig figs (so less rounding)
t = 0.26 = A
