The figure below shows a man in a boat on a lake. The man's mass is 74 kg, and the boat's is 135 kg. The man and boat are initia

lly at rest when the man throws a package of mass m = 15 kg horizontally to the right with a speed of vi = 5.0 m/s.
What is the velocity of the boat after the package is thrown? Neglect any resistance force from the water. (Give the magnitude in m/s, and select the correct direction from the options given.)

The velocity of the boat after the package is thrown is 0.36 m/s.

<h3>Final velocity of the boat</h3>

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

Pi = Pf

where;

  • Pi is initial momentum
  • Pf is final momentum

v(74 + 135) = 15 x 5

v(209) = 75

v = 75/209

v = 0.36 m/s

Thus, the velocity of the boat after the package is thrown is 0.36 m/s.

The angle of elevation from a point on the ground to the top of a pyramid is 37 degrees 50​' The angle of elevation from a point
Serjik [45]

Answer:

The height of the pyramid is approximately 104 Ft. See the graphic attached.

Explanation:

First, you have to plot to realize that you have two rectangle triangles, formed by the different elevation points of view. From there you can have a system of two equations, with two unknown values.

Equation (1)

tan 37^{o}50'= \frac{Ph}{x} \\\\Ph=tan 37^{o}50'  x= 0.7766 x

Equation (2)

tan 18^{o}10'=\frac{Ph}{x+183} \\\\Ph=[tan 18^{o}10'][x+183]=[0.3281][x+183]

Matching (1) and (2)

0.7766 x=0.3281(x+183)\\\\(0.7766-0.3281)x=60.05\\\\x=\frac{60.05}{0.4485} =133.89ft

replacing x value in (1)

Ph=0.7766*133.89=103.9789\\Ph = 104 ft
