The  initial velocity of the ball is 55.125 m/s.

<h3>Initial velocity of the ball</h3>

The initial velocity of the ball is calculated as follows;

During upward motion

h = vi - ¹/₂gt²

h = vi - 0.5(9.8)(3²)

h = vi - 44.1 ----------------- (1)

During downward motion

h = vi + ¹/₂gt²

h = 0 + 0.5(9.8)(1.5)²

h = 11.025 ----------- (2)

solve (1) and (2) together, to determine the initial velocity of the ball

11.025 = vi - 44.1

vi = 11.025 + 44.1

vi = 55.125 m/s

Thus, the  initial velocity of the ball is 55.125 m/s.

A 900-kg giraffe runs across a field at a rate of 50 km/hr. What is the magnitude of its momentum? 18 km/hr
Yuri [45]
The correct answer is the one with 45000 kg*km/hr.
the formula is p = m*v 
 900 *50/hr  giving u 45000 
I know this is the correct answer because i have already turned it in and got a 100%.

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

2,400kg * m/s

Explanation:

You are missing some information in the question but the rest could be found some where else.

The question gives the masses and starting velocity of each car.

Car 1: m = 600kg and sv = 4m/s

Car 2: m 400kg and sv = 0m/s

Find the momentum of both cars.

Car 1: 600 * 4 = 2400

Car 2: 400 * 0 = 0

Add both.

2400 + 0 = 2400

Best of Luck!

2) Why do you think fossil fueled cars are still out numbering alternative and replacement fueled cars even though fossil fuels
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Fossil-fueled cars are still outnumbering the alternative and replacement-fueled cars because they are generally cost-effective and are efficient.

Explanation:

<em>Fossil fuels</em> are non-renewable energy that cannot be replenished. Although many people know how harmful using them can be to the environment, still, people continue to buy cars that are powered by it. This is because, <em>using fossil-fueled cars can help you save money</em> compared to using<em> replacement-fueled cars.</em><em> Its engines are also more powerful,</em> which means they can arrive at their destination in just a few minutes. <u>This makes it efficient.</u> The cost of maintaining a fossil-fueled car is less expensive compared to<em> replacement-fueled cars.</em> People are naturally keen when it comes to budgeting, thus, many people still buy cars powered by fossil fuels.
