Asmall bag of sand is released from an ascending hot-air balloon whose upward constant velocity is v0 = 2.45 m/s. knowing that at the time of the release the balloon was 98.8 m above the ground, determine the time, τ, it takes the bag to reach the ground from the moment of its release.

When you draw an illustration for this problem, you would come up with the same drawing as shown in the picture. As the hot-air balloon travels upwards, there is a slight time when the bag of sand rises up until it reaches the maximum height. Then, it goes back down to the ground. The total time would be t₁ + t₂. The solution is as follows:

H = v₀²/2g = (2.45)²/2(9.81) = 0.306 m
t₁ = H/v₀ = 0.306 m/2.45 m/s = 0.125 s

t₂ = √2(H + 98.8)/g = √2(0.306+ 98.8)/9.81
t₂ = 4.495 s

Total time = 0.125 s + 4.495 s = 4.62 seconds

There is no graph to look at on here, but i shall explain them to you. a line graph is just in its title it’s a graph with a line running through the dots to show an increase or decrease. a bar graph is used to show how much or how little something is so a comparison. a scatter plot is used to graph points to tell the data. and i don’t know what a histogram is.

Hello,the answers iron,  hope this
