One second after vertical projection

In summary, a body is projected vertically and after 1 second it is at a height of 10m, still moving upwards. Using the equation vf^2=vi^2+2ad, where vf is 0 m/s and a is gravity, we can solve for the initial velocity (Vi) and the maximum height the body will reach. Other relevant SUVAT equations may also be used in this scenario.

What other SUVAT equations are you aware of?
 

1. What is "One second after vertical projection"?

"One second after vertical projection" refers to the amount of time it takes for an object to reach the highest point of its trajectory when thrown or launched vertically into the air.

2. How is "One second after vertical projection" calculated?

The time it takes for an object to reach its highest point can be calculated using the formula t = (2v/g), where t is time, v is initial velocity, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

3. What is the significance of "One second after vertical projection" in physics?

"One second after vertical projection" is significant because it is used to calculate the maximum height, or apex, of a projectile's trajectory. This information is important in understanding the motion of objects in the air and can be applied to various real-world scenarios, such as sports, engineering, and astronomy.

4. Does air resistance affect "One second after vertical projection"?

Yes, air resistance can affect the time it takes for an object to reach its highest point. In some cases, it may cause the object to take longer to reach its apex, while in other cases it may cause the object to reach a lower apex.

5. How does gravity affect "One second after vertical projection"?

Gravity plays a significant role in determining the time it takes for an object to reach its highest point. The acceleration due to gravity, which is a constant value of 9.8 m/s^2, affects the object's vertical velocity, ultimately determining the time it takes to reach its apex.
