Question

A lidless rectangular water tank made of zinc plates is 2m long, 1.5m broad and 1m high. How many square metres of zinc plates are used in the tank? ​

  1. Answer:
    Step-by-step explanation:
    Time to reach Maximum height ,
    t = 6/2 = 3 s.
    v = 0 (at the maximum height )
    a = – 9.8 m s-²
    ◆ a) Using, v = u + at, we get
    0 = u – 9.8 × 3
    or, u = 29.4 ms-¹
    Thus, the velocity with which it was thrown up = 29.4ms-¹
    ◆ b) Using, 2aS = v² – u², we get
    S = v²- u²/2a
    = 0 – 29.4 × 29.4/- 2× 9.8
    = 44.1 m
    Thus, Maximum height it reaches = 44.1 m.
    ◆ c) Here, t = 4s. In 3 s, the ball reaches the maximum height and in 1 s it falls from the top.
    Distance covered in 1 s from maximum height,
    S = ut + 1/2at ²
    = 0 + 1/2 × 9.8 × 1
    = 4.9 m
    Therefore, The ball will be 4.9 m below the top of the tower after 4 s
