Alead ball is dropped into a lake from a diving board 6.10 mm above the water. after entering the water, it sinks to the bottom with a constant velocity equal to the velocity with which it hit the water. the ball reaches the bottom 4.50 ss after it is released. how deep is the lake?

D=1.54489 m

Explanation:

Given data

S=6.10 mm= 0.0061 m

To find

Depth of lake

Solution

To find the depth of lake first we need to find the initial time ball takes to hit the water.To get the value of time use below equation

So ball takes 0.035sec to hit the water

As we have found time Now we need to find the final velocity of ball when it enters the lake.So final velocity is given as

Since there are (4.50-0.035) seconds left for (ball) it to reach the bottom of the lake

So the depth of lake given as:

pythagoras' theorem

square root (-5^2+9^2)

square root (25+81)

square root (106)

angle is tan^-1(9/5)

neg x, pos y

false
