What about calculating the maximum height attain ed by 10 m per second square gram

1 answer

It appears there might be a misunderstanding in the units or the context of your question regarding "10 m per second square gram." To clarify and provide an accurate response, let me break down a few potential scenarios.

  1. If you meant a speed of 10 m/s: In that case, to calculate the maximum height attained by an object thrown vertically upward with an initial velocity of \(v_0 = 10 , \text{m/s}\), you would use the following kinematic equation:

    \[ h = \frac{v_0^2}{2g} \]

    where:

    • \(h\) is the maximum height,
    • \(v_0\) is the initial velocity,
    • \(g\) is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately \(9.81 , \text{m/s}^2\)).

    Plugging in the values:

    \[ h = \frac{(10 , \text{m/s})^2}{2 \times 9.81 , \text{m/s}^2} \approx \frac{100}{19.62} \approx 5.1 , \text{m} \]

    So, the maximum height attained would be approximately 5.1 meters.

  2. If you were referring to acceleration: If "10 m/s²" refers to acceleration due to gravity and you want to know the maximum height reached by an object if it was projected somehow in a different context, please provide more details regarding the scenario (such as the initial velocity, angle, etc.).

If you meant something different entirely, please clarify so I can provide the appropriate information or calculations!
