An Austin volleyball player bumps a 5 kg ball into the air. It reaches a height of 2.8 meters. How fast was the ball going as it got bumped into the air?
O 137.2 m/s
O 7.4 m/s
O 19.6 m/s
O 14 m/s

Respuesta :

Answer:

v = 7.4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass if a volleyball, m = 5 kg

The ball reaches a height of 2.8 m

We need to find how fast the ball is going as it bumped into the air. Ket the velocity is v. Using the conservation of energy to find it as follows :

[tex]mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\v=\sqrt{2gh} \\\\v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 2.8} \\\\=7.4\ m/s[/tex]

So, the required speed is 7.4 m/s. Hence, the correct option is (b).
