Ahot-air balloonist, rising vertically with a constant speed of 5.00 m/s releases a sandbag at the instant the balloon is 40.0 m above the ground. after it is released, the sandbag encounters no appreciable air drag. compute the velocity of the sandbag at 0.250 s after its release.

 ↑   upwards

Explanation:

Take the direction up (where the hot-air balloonist moves) as the positive direction, and take the direction down (contrary to the direction of the hot-air balloonist) as the negative direction.

Then we propose the kinematic equation for the speed of the sandbag:

.

Where

is the initial velocity of the sandbag

a is the acceleration of the sandbag

t is the time in seconds.

In this case

a is the gravitational acceleration of

Now we substitute these values into the formula and solve for

colorectal cancer may also develop from areas of abnormal cells in the lining of the colon or rectum. this area of abnormal cells is called dysplasia and is more commonly seen in people with certain inflammatory diseases of the bowel such as crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.
