Aball is thrown directly downward with an initial speed of 7.65 m/s froma height of 29.0 m. after what time interval does it strike the ground?

1.77 s

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to use the kinematic equation for the position, so we have:

xf= xo+vo*t+(g*t^2)/2  we can consider the origin on the top so the xo=0 and xf=29 m; then

(g*t^2)/2+vo*t-xf=0  vo is the initail velocity, vo=7.65 m/s

then by solving the quadratric equation in t

t=1.77 s

what experimental evidence led scientists to change from the previous model to this one?

a few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back.

the colors of light emitted from heated atoms had very specific energies.

experiments with water vapor showed that elements combine in specific proportions.

cathode rays were bent in the same way whenever a magnet was brought near them.
