State the three equations of motion of a body under the influence of gravitational force of earth. When is g positive and when is it negative? What is maximum height?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The three equation of motion of body under the infulece of gravitational force of earth are
(i) `v=u+g t`
(ii) `s=ut+(1)/(2)g t^(2)` (iii) `v^(2)-u^(2)=2gs`
the value of g is positive when body is falling freely towards earth, and the value of g is negative when a body is thrown up vertically. maximum height is the height at which up ward velocity (of projection) of the body reduce to zero.
