Laws and theories are similar in that they are both scientific statements that result from a tested hypothesis and are supported by scientific evidence.
W=mgh W=(20)(9.8)(1) w=196J
They will interfere to create a crest with an amplitude of 2
So this is easy to calculate when you split the velocity into x and y components. The x component is going to equal cos(53) * 290 and the y component is going to equal sin(53)*290.
The x location therefore is 290*cos(53)*35 = 6108.4m
The y location needs to factor in the downwards acceleration of gravity too, which is 9.81m/s^2. We need the equation dist. = V initial*time + 0.5*acceleration*time^2.
This gives us d=290*sin(53)*35 + (0.5*-9.81*35^2)=2097.5m
So your (x,y) coordinates equals (6108.4, 2097.5)
Answer:
S1 = 1/2 g t^2 distance stone falls in time t
S2 = Vy t - 1/2 g t^2 distance thrown stone rises in time t
H = 49 = S1 + S2 = Vy t
t = 49 / 40 sec time when stones meet
Check:
Stone 1 falls: 1/2 g t^2 = 1/2 * 9.8 * (49 / 40)^2 = 7.35 m
Stone 2 rises : 40 * (49 / 40) - 1/2 * 9.8 (49 / 40)^2 = 41.65 m
