    In this video I will show you how to calculate the height when 2 objects will pass each other - one object thrown upward and the other dropped (free-fall).

    i dont understand why y1 = y2. i would thought the equation y= y0 + v0 + 1/2gt^2 is relating displacement. By saying y1 =y2, are you saying that they both displaced the same amount?

      You can try with this method:
      Let both the balls meet at 'x' m from the ground. Now, Ball 1 will travel 'x' and Ball 2 has to travel '20 - x' m to cross each other. At this instant, 't' becomes equal.
      For Ball 1 : y = y0 + v0*t + 1/2gt^2
      ==> x = 0 + 25*t - 1/2gt^2 ....(1)
      For Ball 2 : y = y0 + v0*t + 1/2gt^2
      ==> 0 = (20 - x) + 0*t + 1/2gt^2 ....(2)
      Here y0 = h is not taken from the ground level for Ball 2 because we're only interested in distance travelled by Ball 2 to cross Ball 1 which = 20 - x. This '20 - x' distance decreases as the Ball 2 reaches towards Ball 1 and becomes 0 when they meet.
      Equate them you'll get the answer.

      y1 and y2 here are the vertical y positions. Because the problem wants you to solve at what height they will meet, so you can assume that the two balls will arrive at the same height at a certain moment. That's why you should assume y1 = y2.

    This was an outstanding way to derive the t = 0.8
    I know you're super used to deriving answers in this way and have derived far, far more difficult problems than this using much cleverer logic but to my inexperienced mind, this was awesome lol
    By looking at 25m/s for the ground ball and 20m high for the second ball, we could see immediately that at the very least the balls would pass each other in less than a second.

    isn't g different for both the objects. For one it is +g and for the other it is -g.hence we can't cancel 0.5gt^2 on both the sides ,right?

    • @MichelvanBiezen
      @MichelvanBiezen  10 лет назад +1

      Prathap,
      g is the acceleration due to gravity and it is always -9.8 m/sec^2 regardless of what a projectile is doing
      For the equations of kinematics to work properly, you must always consider g negative when solving projectile problems.

    That was a bit confusing because I thought x should not be equal for both. What I tried to do and failed was if ball one travelled 1 m then ball two 20-1 = 19m, if ball 1 travelled 2 m then ball two travels 20-2 or 18 but I couldnt take it from there. Basiciallly time of x(ball one) = time of (20-xball one) for the second ball. I do not know what to do next.

    Sir, why we don't use the second ball for the equation to see when they will meet? and how we can know if the balls will meet when y=y2 ? maybe because of the vi ball number one will reach the second one with in bigger distance . i hope you get it because my English language is weak :( thanks

      For part b, the first ball will be higher than 20 m after 1 second, so they will never be at the same height, after you drop the second ball.

    At the beginning, how do you say that the distance traveled by both the balls would be the same when they meet each other. The first ball is thrown at a velocity of 25m/s but the second ball is just dropped at 0m/s ?

  • @historyisthebest5831
    @historyisthebest5831 4 года назад +1

    Sir. Did you calculate the same time based on your assumption that y1 equals y2. I get why y1 = y2 because they should be at the same height at a certain moment. If you plug in the equations of y1 and y2, then it's completely reasonable. But it's interesting that if you think backward, the two objects released at the same time has traveled an equal amount of time but they will not necessarily meet at the same height right?

    • @educhan3909

      The first ball has so much velocity that it can reach high height before the second ball has time to accelerate

    why we are assuming the objects have the same height ?

    • @MichelvanBiezen
      @MichelvanBiezen  6 лет назад

      First start with assuming that they will have the same height when they pass one another. If they don't pass one another, you will end up with an impossible answer which then implies they will not pass one another. But a quick check on the initial velocities should make it obvious that they will. (The bottom object will move upward for at least 2.5 seconds given its initial velocity)

      The technique to solve any physics problem is to find something that is equal to each other. In this case, since the problem wanted you to find the location where both objects are at the same height and y1 represents the height of object 1 and y2 represents the height of the second object (as a function of time) we just set those two equal to each other to find the time. (or we set the time equal to each other to find the height.

    • @MichelvanBiezen
      @MichelvanBiezen  8 лет назад

      In problems like this one, g represents the acceleration due to gravity. That is the same for all objects regardless of what they are doing. Therefore in projectile problems, g is always equal to - 9.8 m/sec^2

      In projectile motion the acceleration due to gravity (g) is ALWAYS negative as is the case in this video. Note that the substitution of (1/2) g = - 4.9 m/sec^2.

      Once the object is no longer being pushed or handled, then there is only on force acting on it, the force of gravity. Thus irregardless of what happened to the object before, once it is in the air, it will have an acceleration of g in the y-direction.
