Express your answer in terms of v and the magnitude of the acceleration of gravity g.

Answered by wiki @ 29/10/2020

Answer:

$h=\dfrac{3v^2}{8g}$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the projectile is 0.5 v. Let h is the height above the ground. Using the first equation of motion to find it.

$v=u+at$

$v=u-gt$

Initial speed of the projectile is v and final speed is 0.5 v.

$0.5v=v-gt$

$t=\dfrac{v}{2g}$

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Let h is the height above the ground. Using the second equation of motion as :

$h=vt-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$h=v\dfrac{v}{2g}-\dfrac{1}{2}g(\dfrac{v}{2g})^2$

$h=\dfrac{3v^2}{8g}$

So, the height of the projectile above the ground is $\dfrac{3v^2}{8g}$ . Hence, this is the required solution.
