Question

A small bag of sand is released from an ascending hot air balloon who's upward constant velocity is v0 = 1.05 m/s. Knowing that at the time of the release the balloon was a 51.8 m above the ground, determine the time, t, it takes the bag to reach the ground from the moment of its release.

Explanation / Answer

using equation

X = X0 + U*t + 0.5*a*t^2

a = -9.81 m.sec^2

U = 1.05 m/sec

X = 0

X0 = 51.8 m

0 = 51.8 + 1.05*t - 0.5*9.81*t^2

Solving this equation gives two solution

one solution is negative so that cannot be answer.

t = 3.36 sec Ans
