Alex climbs to the top of a tall tree while his friend Gary waits on the ground below. Alex throws down a ball at 8 m/s from 50

m above the ground at the same time Gary throws a ball up. At what speed must Gary throw a ball up in order for the two balls to cross paths 25 m above the ground? The starting height of the ball thrown upward is 1.5 m above the ground. Ignore the effects of air resistance. whats the answer in m/s?

Answer:22.62 m/s

Explanation:

Given

two balls are separated by a distance of 50 m

Alex throws  the ball from a height of 50 m with a velocity of 8 m/s and Gary launches a ball with some velocity  exactly at the same time.

ball  from ground travels a distance of 25 m in t sec

For Person on tree  

25=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

25=8t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2--------1

For person at ground

23.5=ut-\frac{1}{2}gt^2---------2

Solve equation (1)

50=16t+9.81t^2

9.81t^2+16t-50=0

t=\frac{-16\pm\sqrt{256+4\times 50\times 9.81}}{2\times 9.81}=\frac{47.1-16}{19.62}=1.58 s

put the value of t in equation 2

23.5=u\times 1.58-\frac{9.81\times 1.58^2}{2}

u=\frac{35.744}{1.58}=22.62 m/s

lasie4. A 4 kg object is displaced to the right by a distance of 12 m underthe influence of the following forces: a 17 Nforce pu
Oksanka [162]

The work done by a constant force in a rectilinear motion is given by:

W=Fd\cos\theta

where F is the magnitude of the force, d is the distance and θ is the angle between the force and the displacement vector.

In this case we have two forces then we need to add the work done by each of them; for the first force we have a magnitude of 17 N, a displacement of 12 m and and angle of 0° (since both the displacement and the force point right); for the second force we have a magnitude of 36 N, a displacement of 12 m and an angle of 30°. Plugging these values we have that the total work is:

\begin{gathered} W=(17)(12)\cos0+(36)(12)\cos30 \\ W=578.123 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the total work done is 578.123 J and the answer is option E

Sasha lifts a couch 8.2 meters from the ground floor of her house to the attic. If the couch has a mass of 120 kg, what is the g
gavmur [86]

As we know that gravitational potential energy is given by

U = mgH

here we have

m = mass = 120 kg

g = 9.81 m/s^2

h = height = 8.2 m

now from above formula

U = 120kg (9.81 m/s^2) (8.2 m)

U = 9653.04 J

so above is the gravitational potential energy of the couch

Georgia [21]
The source of information was biased. It was like walking along a river bank in the country and asking everybody you meet whether they like fishing. Or asking 500 people sitting in the bleachers whether they like baseball.
I'm sure the scientist would have gotten different data if she interviewed 500 teenagers at neighborhood basketball courts, or 500 teenagers at a rock concert.

Give the relationship(s) for any pair of protons with the proper term(s). Label – your choice. A.Heterotopic B.Heterotopic, dias
Afina-wow [57]

Answer and Explanation

• Heterotopic protons are those that when substituted by the same substituent, are structurally different. They are not similar, diastereotopic or enantiotopic.

• Diastreotopic protons refers to two protons in a molecule which, if replaced by the same substituent, would generate compounds that are diastereomers. Diastereotopic groups are often, but not always, identical groups attached to the same atom in a molecule containing at least one chiral center.

For example, the two hydrogen atoms of the C3 carbon in (S)-2-bromobutane are diastereotopic (shown in the attached image). Replacement of one hydrogen atom with a bromine atom will produce (2S,3R)-2,3-dibromobutane. Replacement of the other hydrogen atom with a bromine atom will produce the diastereomer (2S,3S)-2,3-dibromobutane.

• Homotopic protons in a compound are equivalent protons. Two protons A and B are homotopic if the molecule remains the same (including stereochemically) when the protons are interchanged with some other atom (substituent) while the remaining parts of the molecule stay fixed. Homotopic atoms are always identical, in any environment.

For example, ethane, the two H atoms on C1 and C2 carbons on the same side (as shown in the attached image) are homotopic as they exhibit the phenomenon described above.

• Enantiotopic protons are two protons in a molecule which, if one or the other were replaced (by the same substituent), would generate a chiral compound. The two possible compounds resulting from that replacement would be enantiomers.

For example, in the attached image to this answer, the two hydrogen atoms attached to the second carbon in butane are enantiotopic. Replacement of one hydrogen atom with a bromine atom will produce (R)-2-bromobutane. Replacement of the other hydrogen atom with a bromine atom will produce the enantiomer (S)-2-bromobutane.

Hope this helps!!!
