Answer:

Explanation:

Remark

At the time it takes to drop 20 m is the same time it takes to travel 60 m horizontally.

Givens

h = 20 m

hd = 60 m

g = 9.81

vi = 0

Formula

d = vi*t + 1/2 a * t^2                  We are solving for t

Solution

When the battery fails, the vertical initial velocity is 0. So we have to find the time it would take to drop 20 meters

d = 0*t + 1/2 * 9.81 a* t^2

20 = 4.91 * t^2                          Divide by 4.91

20/4.91 = 4.91 t^2 / 4.91    

4.073 = t^2                              Take the square root of both sides.

t = 2.02 seconds

Horizontal

d = 60 m

t = 2.02 seconds

v = ?

Note: there is no horizontal deceleration or acceleration

v = d/t

v = 60/2.02

Answer: v = 29.73 m/s

Describe how a drug administered intravenously is absorbed​
Digiron [165]

Answer:

La rapidez con que el fármaco es absorbido en el torrente sanguíneo depende, en parte, del suministro de sangre al músculo: cuanto menor sea el aporte de sangre, más tiempo necesitará el fármaco para ser absorbido.

Para la administración por vía intravenosa se inserta una aguja directamente en una vena

A biker pedals with a constant acceleration to reach a velocity of 7.5m/s over 4.5s. During the period of acceleration, the bike
Flura [38]

Given:

v(final velocity)= 7.5 m/s

t(time taken to pedal along)=4.5 s

Displacement (s)=19 m

Now we know that

s=ut+1/2(at^2)

Where s is the displacement measured in m

u is the initial velocity measured in m/sec

a is the acceleration measured in m/s^2.

t is the time taken to cover this distance.

Substituting the given values in the above formula we get

19= 4.5u+1/2(a x 4.5 x 4.5)

20.25 a + 9 u = 38


Now we also know that

v= u + at

Substituting the given values in the above formula we get

7.5= u + 4.5a


Solving for u and a from the above equations we get

u = 0.944m/s

a= 1.45 m/s^2

Thus the initial velocity is 0.944 m/s
