How long does it take for an object thrown straight upward on the surface of the moon with an initial velocity of 20 m/s, to reach the peak of its path? (acceleration of gravity on the moon is 2 m/s2)
| a. |
5 s |
|
| b. |
10 s |
|
| c. |
20 s |
|
| d. |
40 s |
|
| e. |
None of these |
using the equation of linear motion we have
v = u + gt
at maximum height v =0
0 = 20 + (-2)*t
t = 20/2 = 10s
so option b) 10 s is the correct answer

I need help with the following.
Thanks!
An object is thrown straight upward How long will it take to reach its peak? Explain how you know. What will be its speed at the peak? Explain how you know. What will be its acceleration at the peak? Explain how you know. What will be its speed when it gets back to the same height from which it started? Explain how you know. How many m/s will it lose each second on...
An object is thrown vertically upward with a velocity of 30m/s on the surface of the moon. If the gravity on the surface of the moon is 2m/s2 , calculate the heights and velocities of the object at 5 sec, 10 sec, 15 sec, 20 sec, 25 sec & 30 sec after the ball was thrown. Now show graphically how the distances and velocities of the object change with respect to time.
A rock thrown vertically upward from the surface of the moon at a velocity of24 m/sec reaches a height of s=24t-0.8t^2 meters in t seconds.a) Find the rock’s acceleration and velocity at time t.b) How long does it take the rock to reach its highest point?c) How high does the rock go?d) How long does it take the rock to reach half its maximum height?e) How long is the rock aloft?
Please show me the work thank you
3) An object is thrown upward with a speed of 12 m/s on the surface of planet X where the acceleration due to gravity is 1.5 m/s2. How long does it take for the object to reach the maximum height? A) 8.0 s B) 11 s C) 14 s D) 16 s
An object of mass m is thrown vertically upward from the surface of Mercury, where the acceleration due to gravity is gh. The initial speed is v, and the object reaches a maximum height of yr. If a similar object is thrown upward with initial speed v2 7v from the surface of Saturn's moon Tethys, its maximum height is y2. The acceleration due to gravity on Tethys is 92, Express the ratio of y2 to y in terms of gl...

A potato is thrown straight upwards with a speed of 10 m/s. How long does it take to reach a height 2.2m above where it started while descending (on the way down)? Neglect air resistance, and assume the acceleration due to gravity is g=-9.8 m/s^2.
(1 point) A stone thrown upward from the top of a 72 ft cliff at 119 ft/s eventually falls to the beach below. (For this problem take the acceleration due to gravity to be g-32 ft/s2; take upwards to be a positive direction.) (a) How long does the stone take to reach its highest point? time (include units) (b) What is its maximum height? height- include units) (c) How long before the stone hits the beach? time (include units) (d)...
