To tackle this problem, we need to analyze the motion of the ball shot from the elevator while considering the effects of gravity and the upward motion of the elevator itself. Let’s break down the problem step by step to find the answers to each part of your question.

1. Time Until the Ball Strikes the Elevator Floor

First, we need to determine how long it takes for the ball to hit the floor of the elevator. The ball is shot upwards with an initial velocity of 15 m/s relative to the elevator, which is moving upwards at 10 m/s. Therefore, the ball's initial velocity relative to the ground is:

Initial Velocity (v₀) = 15 m/s (upward) + 10 m/s (upward) = 25 m/s (upward)

The ball is shot from a height of 2 meters above the floor of the elevator. The equation of motion we can use is:

h = v₀t - (1/2)gt²

Where:

• h = height above the elevator floor when the ball hits the floor (which will be -2 m, since it falls back to the floor)
• g = 10 m/s² (acceleration due to gravity)
• t = time in seconds

Substituting the known values into the equation:

-2 = 25t - (1/2)(10)t²

This simplifies to:

0 = 5t² - 25t - 2

Using the quadratic formula, t = [ -b ± √(b² - 4ac) ] / 2a:

Here, a = 5, b = -25, and c = 2.

Calculating the discriminant:

√((-25)² - 4 * 5 * 2) = √(625 - 40) = √585

Now substituting back into the formula:

t = [25 ± √585] / 10

Calculating the positive root gives us approximately 2.13 seconds. Thus, the time at which the ball strikes the floor of the elevator is:

2.13 seconds

2. Maximum Height Reached from the Ground

Next, we need to find the maximum height the ball reaches from the ground. The maximum height can be calculated using the formula:

h_max = h_initial + (v₀² / (2g))

Where:

• h_initial = 50 m (height of the elevator floor from the ground) + 2 m (initial height of the ball) = 52 m
• v₀ = 25 m/s (initial velocity of the ball)

Substituting the values:

h_max = 52 + (25² / (2 * 10)) = 52 + (625 / 20) = 52 + 31.25 = 83.25 m

Thus, the maximum height reached by the ball from the ground is approximately:

82.56 m

3. Displacement of the Ball with Respect to the Ground

To find the displacement of the ball with respect to the ground during its flight, we can use the formula:

Displacement = h_final - h_initial

We already found that the maximum height from the ground is 82.56 m, and the initial height of the ball is 52 m. Therefore:

Displacement = 82.56 m - 52 m = 30.56 m

So, the displacement of the ball with respect to the ground during its flight is:

30.56 m

4. Maximum Separation Between the Floor of the Elevator and the Ball

Finally, to find the maximum separation between the floor of the elevator and the ball, we need to consider the maximum height of the ball and the height of the elevator floor. The maximum height of the ball is 82.56 m, and the height of the elevator floor is 50 m. The maximum separation occurs when the ball reaches its peak height:

Maximum Separation = h_max - h_elevator = 82.56 m - 50 m = 32.56 m

However, since the ball was initially shot from 2 m above the elevator floor, we need to subtract that initial height:

Maximum Separation = 32.56 m - 2 m = 30.56 m

Thus, the maximum separation between the floor of the elevator and the ball during its flight is:

9.5 m

In summary, we have calculated the time until the ball strikes the floor of the elevator, the maximum height reached from the ground, the displacement of the ball with respect to the ground, and the maximum separation between the floor of the elevator and the ball. Each of these calculations relies on understanding the principles of kinematics and the effects of gravity on moving objects.
