The time a basketball player spends in the air when shooting a basket is called the​ "hang time." the vertical leap l measured i

n feet is related to the hang time t measured in seconds by the equation lequals=4t2. suppose that a basketball player has a vertical leap of 4 feet 4 inches. find the hang time for this leap.

I believe that L is in feet while t is in seconds. To find for the hang time, all we have to do is to plug in the value of L in feet in the equation.

4 inches is equivalent to 4/12 feet or 0.33 feet, therefore the total L is:

L = 4.33 ft

Using the equation to find for t:

L = 4 t^2

4.33 = 4 t^2

<span>t = 1.04 s</span>

A train travels 63 kilometers in 2 hours, and then 56 kilometers in 3 hours. What is its average speed? i need the answer and un
kolbaska11 [484]
The average speed is the ratio between the total space and the total time of the motion:
v= \frac{S_{tot}}{t_{tot}}
The total space is 
S_{tot}=63 km + 56 km = 119 km
while the total time is 
t_{tot}=2h+3h = 5h
So, the average velocity is
v= \frac{119 km}{5 h} =23.8 km/h&#10;

We can also rewrite it in m/s. The total space is S_{tot}=119000 m, while the time is t_{tot}=5h\cdot 3600 s/h = 18000s, and so
v= \frac{119000m}{18000s}=6.6 m/s

Two resistors R1 = 3 Ω and R2 = 6 Ω are connected in parallel. What is the net resistance in the circuit?​
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

"2Ω" is the net resistance in the circuit.

Explanation:

The given resistors are:

R1 = 3Ω

R2 = 6Ω

The net resistance will be:

⇒  \frac{1}{R_{net}} =\frac{1}{R_1} +\frac{1}{R_2}

On substituting the values, we get

⇒  \frac{1}{R_{net}} =\frac{1}{3} +\frac{1}{6}

On taking L.C.M, we get

⇒  \frac{1}{R_{net}} =\frac{2+1}{6}

⇒  \frac{1}{R_{net}} =\frac{3}{6}

⇒  \frac{1}{R_{net}} =\frac{1}{2}

On applying cross-multiplication, we get

⇒ R_{net}=2 \Omega

A 0.50-kg object moves in a horizontal circular track with a radius of 2.5 m. An external forceof 3.0 N, always tangent to the t
kodGreya [7K]

The work done by the force is 47.1 J

Explanation:

The work done by a force in moving an object is given by

W=Fd cos \theta (1)

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the distance covered by the object

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and the motion of the object

In this problem, the force applied to the object is

F = 3.0 N

This force is always tangential to the track: this means that at every instant, the force is parallel to the motion of the object, so

\theta=0

And the distance covered is equal to the circumference of the circle, which is:

d=2\pi r=2\pi (2.5 m)=15.7 m

where r = 2.5 m is the radius.

Now we can substitute into eq.(1) to find the work done:

W=(3.0)(15.7)(cos 0)=47.1 J

A person gives a shopping cart an initial push along a horizontal floor to get it moving, and then lets go. The cart travels for
mash [69]

Answer:

Only a backward force is acting, no forward force.

Explanation:

  • Once released from the initial push, in absence of friction, the shopping cart would continue moving forward at a constant speed forever.
  • As it would move at a constant speed, no net force would be acting on it.
  • So, if it is gradually slowing, there must  be a net force producing an acceleration in a direction opposite to the movement.
  • This force is the kinetic friction force, and is the only force acting on the cart in the horizontal direction.
  • As any friction force, opposes to the relative movement between the cart and the horizontal floor, which means that is directed backward.
  • This is consistent with the direction of the acceleration of the cart.
