The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine how the maximum height and the time to reach that maximum height are affected by the air resistance, which causes a vertical retardation equal to 10% of the acceleration due to gravity. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Given Values:** - The acceleration due to gravity \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). - The air resistance causes a vertical retardation of \( 10\% \) of \( g \). - Therefore, the effective acceleration due to gravity when considering air resistance is: \[ g_{\text{effective}} = g + \text{retardation} = g + 0.1g = 1.1g = 1.1 \times 10 = 11 \, \text{m/s}^2 \] 2. **Finding the Maximum Height Without Air Resistance:** - The formula for the maximum height \( H \) reached by a projectile when air resistance is neglected is given by: \[ H = \frac{u^2}{2g} \] - Substituting the value of \( g \): \[ H = \frac{u^2}{2 \times 10} = \frac{u^2}{20} \] 3. **Finding the Maximum Height With Air Resistance:** - The new maximum height \( H' \) when considering air resistance is: \[ H' = \frac{u^2}{2g_{\text{effective}}} = \frac{u^2}{2 \times 11} = \frac{u^2}{22} \] 4. **Calculating the Decrease in Height:** - The decrease in height \( \Delta H \) can be calculated as: \[ \Delta H = H - H' = \frac{u^2}{20} - \frac{u^2}{22} \] - To find a common denominator: \[ \Delta H = \frac{11u^2 - 10u^2}{220} = \frac{u^2}{220} \] - The percentage decrease in height is given by: \[ \frac{\Delta H}{H} \times 100 = \frac{\frac{u^2}{220}}{\frac{u^2}{20}} \times 100 = \frac{20}{220} \times 100 = \frac{100}{11} \approx 9.09\% \] 5. **Finding the Time to Reach Maximum Height Without Air Resistance:** - The time \( t \) to reach maximum height without air resistance is given by: \[ t = \frac{u}{g} = \frac{u}{10} \] 6. **Finding the Time to Reach Maximum Height With Air Resistance:** - The new time \( t' \) to reach maximum height with air resistance is: \[ t' = \frac{u}{g_{\text{effective}}} = \frac{u}{11} \] 7. **Calculating the Decrease in Time:** - The decrease in time \( \Delta t \) is: \[ \Delta t = t - t' = \frac{u}{10} - \frac{u}{11} \] - Finding a common denominator: \[ \Delta t = \frac{11u - 10u}{110} = \frac{u}{110} \] - The percentage decrease in time is given by: \[ \frac{\Delta t}{t} \times 100 = \frac{\frac{u}{110}}{\frac{u}{10}} \times 100 = \frac{10}{110} \times 100 = \frac{100}{11} \approx 9.09\% \] ### Final Result: Both the maximum height and the time to reach the maximum height will be decreased by approximately \( 9\% \).

To solve the problem, we need to determine how the maximum height and the time to reach that maximum height are affected by the air resistance, which causes a vertical retardation equal to 10% of the acceleration due to gravity. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Given Values:** - The acceleration due to gravity \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). - The air resistance causes a vertical retardation of \( 10\% \) of \( g \). - Therefore, the effective acceleration due to gravity when considering air resistance is: ...
