Question

Imagine that you drop a shot put from a tower on the moon. How much

will the drop time change if the shot put is dropped from a tower on the
earth that is four times as high as the tower used on the moon? The
acceleration of gravity on earth is about 6 times the acceleration due to
gravity on the moon. An equation that may be of interest is found in the
image below.
y = yo + Vyot + ayt?

Answer 1

Answer: y = yo + Vyot + ayt = =2ay y− yo . 5. vy. 2. −voy. 2. =−2 g y− yo

Explanation: since both the displacement and acceleration are negative, they cancel each other when divided, so the result is positive. ... As you can see, as the height displacement (height) increases, the longer it takes for the robocopter to fall.
