JC Kinematics

Because of the symmetry of motion in the problem, the time taken to go from 1 to 2 is,

T1/2 - T2/2                                                                                                      

hence, where u is the velocity at 1

h = u(T1/2 - T2/2) - 1/2 g (T1/2 - T2/2)^2                                                     

at the maximum height v=0 => u=g(T1/2)                                                    

Thus you will get,

g = 8h / [ (T1)^2 - (T2)^2 ]                                                                              

 

ALTERNATIVELY,

you can use the work-energy principle, and since the mass is constant the equation is reduced to

1/2 [ g (T2/2) ]^2 - 1/2 [ g (T1/2) ]^2 = -gh                                                   

then solve for g in terms of h and T1 and T2 you get,

g = 8h / [ (T1)^2 - (T2)^2 ]                                                                             

which is exactly the same thing!

------- max height       , v=0  => u=g(T1/2)

------- sensor 2           , v= g (T2/2)

 

-------- sensor 1         , v=u

 

-------- origin / "ground"    v=unknown, but no need to care
