The statement that explains why James, who operates an apple orchard that sells a very rare type of gourmet apple, would probably choose not to participate in contract production is because he independently grows a unique product, he is already locked in to the best price of the market (option A).

<h3>What is contract manufacturing?</h3>

Contract manufacturing or production occurs when a small business hires another company to produce its products.

This enables small business individuals to begin selling their products without obtaining the large amount of capital necessary to build and run a factory.

However, according to this question, James is a business individual who operates an apple orchard that sells a very rare type of gourmet apple.

Therefore, James would not need to participate in contract production because he independently grows a unique product, he is already locked in to the best price of the market.

snow_tiger [21]

As we know that range of the projectile motion is given by

$R = \frac{v^2 sin(2\theta)}{g}$

here we know that range will be same for two different angles

so here we can say the two angle must be complementary angles

so the two angles must be

$\theta, 90 - \theta$

so it is given that one of the projection angle is 75 degree

so other angle for same range must be 90 - 75 = 15 degree

so other projection angle must be 15 degree

A tin atom has 50 electrons. Electrons in the ________ subshell experience the lowest effective nuclear charge.

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

We are given that a tin has 50 electrons.

We have to find in which subshell electrons experience the lowest effective nuclear charge.

We know that the electron in outermost shell experience the lowest effective nuclear charge.

Electronic configuration is given by

$50=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^65s^24d^{10}5p^2$

Outer most sub-shell is 5p. Therefore, 5p subshell experience the lowest effective nuclear charge because the distance of 5p sub-shell is large from nucleus.

Answer: 5p

A gardener pushes a wheelbarrow around the edges of a lawn. When she has finished, she is 5 m from her starting point. She has t

zvonat [6]

Answer:

Work done by the gardner is 500 J

Explanation:

As we know that the gardner apply force perpendicular upward by magnitude 300 N and along the floor horizontal force is 100 N

so we have

$F = 100 \hat i + 300 \hat j$

now the displacement of the gardner along the floor is

$d = 5\hat i$

now work done is given as

$W = F. d$

so we have

$W = (100 \hat i + 300 \hat j). (5\hat i)$

$W = 500 J$

A child on a sled slides (starting from rest) down an icy slope that makes an angle of 15◦ with the horizontal. After sliding 20

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

A) v₁ = 10.1 m/s t₁= 4.0 s

B) x₂= 17.2 m

C) v₂=7.1 m/s

D) x₂=7.5 m

Explanation:

Assuming no friction, total mechanical energy must keep constant, so the following is always true:

$\Delta K + \Delta U = (K_{f} - K_{o}) +( U_{f} - U_{o}) = 0 (1)$

Choosing the ground level as our zero reference level, Uf =0.
Since the child starts from rest, K₀ = 0.
From (1), ΔU becomes:
$\Delta U = 0- m*g*h = -m*g*h (2)$
In the same way, ΔK becomes:
$\Delta K = \frac{1}{2}*m*v_{1}^{2} (3)$
Replacing (2) and (3) in (1), and simplifying, we get:

$\frac{1}{2}*v_{1}^{2} = g*h (4)$

In order to find v₁, we need first to find h, the height of the slide.
From the definition of sine of an angle, taking the slide as a right triangle, we can find the height h, knowing the distance that the child slides down the slope, x₁, as follows:

$h = x_{1} * sin \theta_{1} = 20.0 m * sin 15 = 5.2 m (5)$

Replacing (5) in (4) and solving for v₁, we get:

$v_{1} = \sqrt{2*g*h} = \sqrt{2*9.8m/s2*5.2m} = 10.1 m/s (6)$

As this speed is achieved when all the energy is kinetic, i.e. at the bottom of the first slide, this is the answer we were looking for.
Now, in order to finish A) we need to find the time that the child used to reach to that point, since she started to slide at the its top.
We can do this in more than one way, but a very simple one is using kinematic equations.
If we assume that the acceleration is constant (which is true due the child is only accelerated by gravity), we can use the following equation:

$v_{1}^{2} - v_{o}^{2} = 2*a* x_{1} (7)$

Since v₀ = 0 (the child starts from rest) we can solve for a:

$a = \frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2*x_{1} } = \frac{(10.1m/s)^{2}}{2* 20.0m} = 2.6 m/s2 (8)$

Since v₀ = 0, applying the definition of acceleration, if we choose t₀=0, we can find t as follows:

$t_{1} =\frac{v_{1} }{a} =\frac{10.1m/s}{2.6m/s2} = 4.0 s (9)$

Since we know the initial speed for this part, the acceleration, and the time, we can use the kinematic equation for displacement, as follows:

$x_{2} = v_{1} * t_{2} + \frac{1}{2} *a_{2}*t_{2}^{2} (10)$

Replacing the values of v₁ = 10.1 m/s, t₂= 2.0s and a₂=-1.5m/s2 in (10):

$x_{2} = 10.1m/s * 2.0s + \frac{1}{2} *(-1.5m/s2)*(2.0s)^{2} = 17.2 m (11)$

From (6) and (8), applying the definition for acceleration, we can find the speed of the child whem she started up the second slope, as follows:

$v_{2} = v_{1} + a_{2} *t_{2} = 10.1m/s - 1.5m/s2*2.0s = 7.1 m/s (12)$

Assuming no friction, all the kinetic energy when she started to go up the second slope, becomes gravitational potential energy when she reaches to the maximum height (her speed becomes zero at that point), so we can write the following equation:

$\frac{1}{2}*v_{2}^{2} = g*h_{2} (13)$

Replacing from (12) in (13), we can solve for h₂:

$h_{2} =\frac{v_{2} ^{2}}{2*g} = \frac{(7.1m/s) ^{2}}{2*9.8m/s2} = 2.57 m (14)$

Since we know that the slide makes an angle of 20º with the horizontal, we can find the distance traveled up the slope applying the definition of sine of an angle, as follows:

$x_{3} = \frac{h_{2} }{sin 20} = \frac{2.57m}{0.342} = 7.5 m (15)$
