A boy throws a baseball onto a roof and it rolls back down and off the roof with a speed of 4.05 m/s. If the roof is pitched at

34.0° below the horizon and the roof edge is 2.10 m above the ground, find the time the baseball spends in the air and the horizontal distance from the roof edge to the point where the baseball lands on the ground.

(a) The time the baseball spends in the air is 0.92 s.

(b) The horizontal distance from the roof edge to the point where the baseball lands on the ground is 3.1 m.

<h3>Time spent in air by the baseball</h3>

h = vt - ¹/₂gt²

-2.1 = (4.05 x sin 34)t  - ¹/₂(9.8)(t²)

-2.1 = 2.26t - 4.9t²

4.9t² - 2.26t - 2.1 = 0

t = 0.92 s

<h3>Horizontal distance traveled by the baseball</h3>

R = Vx(t)

R = (4.05 x cos 34)(0.92)

R = 3.1 m

Thus, the time the baseball spends in the air is 0.92 s.

The horizontal distance from the roof edge to the point where the baseball lands on the ground is 3.1 m.

A satellite in outer space is moving at a constant velocity of 20.5 m/s in the +y direction when one of its on board thruster tu
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

a)  V_f = 25.514 m/s

b)  Q =53.46 degrees CCW from + x-axis

Explanation:

Given:

- Initial speed V_i = 20.5 j m/s

- Acceleration a = 0.31 i m/s^2

- Time duration for acceleration t = 49.0 s

Find:

(a) What is the magnitude of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off?

(b) What is the direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off? Give your answer as an angle measured counterclockwise from the +x-axis.

Solution:

- We can apply the kinematic equation of motion for our problem assuming a constant acceleration as given:

                                   V_f = V_i + a*t

                                   V_f = 20.5 j + 0.31 i *49

                                   V_f = 20.5 j + 15.19 i

- The magnitude of the velocity vector is given by:

                                   V_f = sqrt ( 20.5^2 + 15.19^2)

                                   V_f = sqrt(650.9861)

                                  V_f = 25.514 m/s

- The direction of the velocity vector can be computed by using x and y components of velocity found above:

                                 tan(Q) = (V_y / V_x)

                                 Q = arctan (20.5 / 15.19)

                                 Q =53.46 degrees

- The velocity vector is at angle @ 53.46 degrees CCW from the positive x-axis.

A sound source is located somewhere along the x-axis. Experiments show that the same wave front simultaneously reaches listeners
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

As the source is situated on x - axis , it must be situated in between the two listeners .

So the x coordinate of source is

(-7 + 3 )/2

= - 2 m

The equation of the wave- front will be that o a circle having centre at (-2,0)

and radius = distance between -2 and 3 , that is 5 m

equation of circle

=( x+2 )² + y² = 25

It cuts y axis when x = 0

Putting x = 0

4 + y² = 25

y² = 21

y = + √21 , or - √21

Understand that the acceleration vector is in the direction of the change of the velocity vector. In one dimensional (straight l
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

 a = √ (a_t² + a_c²)

a_t = dv / dt ,    a_c = v² / r  

Explanation:

In a two-dimensional movement, the acceleration can have two components, one in each axis of the movement, so the acceleration can be written as the components of the acceleration in each axis.

            a = aₓ i ^ + a_y j ^

Another very common way of expressing acceleration is by creating a reference system with a parallel axis and a perpendicular axis. The axis called parallel is in the radial direction and the perpendicular axis is perpendicular to the movement, therefore the acceleration remains

         a = √ (a_t² + a_c²)

where the tangential acceleration is

           a_t = dv / dt

the centripetal acceleration is

          a_c = v² / r

A 50 kg bobsled slides down an ice track
STatiana [176]

Hi there!

We can use the following kinematic equation:

v_f^2 = v_i^2 + 2ad

The initial velocity is 0 m/s, so:

v_f^2 = 2ad

vf = final velocity (? m/s)
a = acceleration due to gravity (g)
d = vertical height (m)

Plug in the givens and solve:

v_f = \sqrt{2gd} = \sqrt{2(9.8)(173)} = \boxed{58.23 \frac{m}{s}}
