Answer:

Atomic and molecular collision processes are the physical interactions of atoms and molecules when they are brought into close contact with each other and with electrons, protons, neutrons or ions. This includes energy-conserving elastic scattering and inelastic scattering.

A farmer lifts his hay bales into the top loft of his barn by walking his horse forward with a constant velocity of 1 ft/s. Dete

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

The velocity of the hay bale is - 0.5 ft/s and the acceleration is $6.25\times 10^{- 3} ft/s^{2}$

Solution:

As per the question:

Constant velocity of the horse in the horizontal, $v_{x} = 1 ft/s$

Distance of the horse on the horizontal axis, x = 10 ft

Vertical distance, y = 20 ft

Now,

Apply Pythagoras theorem to find the length:

$20^{2} + 10^{2} = l^{2}$

$l^{2}= 500$

Now,

$x^{2} + y^{2} = 500$ (1)

Differentiating equation (1) w.r.t 't':

$2x\frac{dx}{dt} + 2y\frac{dy}{dt} = 0$

$x\frac{dx}{dt} = - y\frac{dy}{dt}$

where

$\frac{dx}{dt}$ = Rate of change of displacement along the horizontal

$\frac{dy}{dt}$ = Rate of change of displacement along the vertical

$v_{x}$ = velocity along the x-axis.

$v_{y}$ = velocity along the y-axis

$xv_{x} = -yv_{y}$

$v_{y} = - 10\times \frac{1}{20} = - 0.5 ft/s$

$|v_{y}| = 0.5\ ft/s$

Acceleration of the hay bale is given by the kinematic equation:

$v_{y}^{2} = u_{y} + 2ay$

$(-0.5)^{2} =0 + 2ay$

$0.25 = 2ay$

$\frac{0.25}{2y} = a$

$a = \frac{0.25}{2\times 20} = 6.25\times 10^{- 3} ft/s^{2}$

Answer: from the vertical, one should aim 86.6°

Explanation:

height of the center of object = 7.0 m - 0.05 m = 6.95 m

now let the bullet hits centre at point A height x meters from the ground

also let t be the time taken for the bullet to hit the object

so distance travelled by the target will be

d = h - x = 6.95 - x

now using the equation of motion

d = 1/2gt²

so 1/2gt² = 6.95 - x

x = 6.95 - 1/2gt² .........let this be equ 1

let angle of fire be ∅

so v(cos∅) × t = 100

our velocity v is 1200 ft/sec = 365.76 m/s

365.76(cos∅) × t = 100 ........equ 2

also vertical position of the bullet after t is

y = y₀ + c(sin∅)t - 1/2gt²

y = 1 + 365.76(sin∅)t - 1/2gt² ----- equ 3

After time t. the vertical position x and y are same, else the bullet wouldn't have strike target at centre, so;

x = y

we substitute

equ 1 = equ 3

6.95 - 1/2gt² = 1 + 365.76(sin∅)t - 1/2gt²

6.95 - 1 = 365.76(sin∅)t - 1/2gt² + 1/2gt²

5.95 = 365.76(sin∅)t

t = 5.96 / 365.76(sin∅)

now input the above equ into equ 2

365.76(cos∅) × 5.96/365.76(sin∅) = 100

5.95(cos∅)/sin∅ = 100

tan∅ = 5.95/100 = 0.0595

∅ = 3.40°

therefore from the vertical, one should aim (90° - 3.40°) = 86.6°

200 kW of solar radiation is shining on a 300 m^2 parking lot. What is the insulation on the parking lot?

ale4655 [162]

That's "insolation" ... not "insulation".

'Insolation' is simply the intensity of solar radiation over some area.

If 200 kW of radiation is shining on 300 m² of area, then the insolation is

(200 kW) / (300 m²) = (666 and 2/3) watt/m² .

Note that this is the intensity of the incident radiation. It doesn't say anything
about how much soaks in or how much bounces off.

Wait !
I just looked back at the choices, and realized that I didn't answer the question
at all. I have no idea what "1 sun" means. Forgive me. I have stolen your
points, and I am filled with remorse.

Wait again !
I found it, through literally several seconds of online research.

1 sun = 1 kW/m².

So 2/3 of a kW per m² = 2/3 of 1 sun

That's between 0.5 sun and 1.0 sun.

I feel better now, and plus, I learned something.

Where does groundwater come from?

jek_recluse [69]

Groundwater is the water found underground in the cracks and spaces in soil, sand and rock. It is stored in and moves slowly through geologic formations of soil, sand and rocks called aquifers.

Hope this helps.
