Answer:

Explanation:

Let's use the equation Δy = [tex]v(t)-\frac{1}{2}(g)(t)^{2}[/tex]

That would mean -h = [tex]v(\frac{9.8}{2})-\frac{1}{2}(9.80)(\frac{9.8}{2})^{2}.

Since the ball has stopped at t = 9.8 = g, then that would mean that the final velocity v = 0.

-h = [tex](0)(\frac{9.8}{2})-(\frac{1}{2})(9.80)(\frac{9.8}{2})^{2}[/tex]

[tex]h = -(\frac{1}{2})(9.80)(\frac{9.8}{2})^{2}[/tex]

[tex]h = (\frac{1}{2})(9.80)(\frac{9.8}{2})^{2}[/tex]

[tex]h = (\frac{9.8}{2})(\frac{9.8}{2})(\frac{9.8}{2})[/tex]

[tex]h = \frac{9.8^{3}}{2^{3}}[/tex]

[tex]h = \frac{941.192}{8}[/tex]

[tex]h = 117.649[/tex]

The height of the cannonball at [tex]t = \frac{9.8}{2}[/tex] should be 117.649 m

Hope this helps!

Answer:

[tex]h = 67.5\,m[/tex]

Explanation:

The position of the cannonball is given by the following expressions:

Half position

[tex]h = H -\frac{1}{2}\cdot g \cdot \left(\frac{t_{g}}{2} \right)^{2}[/tex]

Final position

[tex]0 = H -\frac{1}{2}\cdot g \cdot t_{g}^{2}[/tex]

The instant when the cannonball hits the ground is:

[tex]t_{g} = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot H}{g} }[/tex]

Lastly, this result is applied in the other equation, which simplified afterwards:

[tex]h = H -\frac{1}{8}\cdot g \cdot \left(\frac{2\cdot H}{g} \right)[/tex]

[tex]h = H -\frac{1}{4}\cdot H[/tex]

[tex]h = \frac{3}{4}H[/tex]

[tex]h = 67.5\,m[/tex]
