<h2>Answer: 277.777 m</h2>

Explanation:

The situation described here is parabolic movement. However, as we are told that the rock was<u> projected upward from the surface</u>, we will only use the equations related to the Y axis.

In this sense, the movement equations in the Y axis are:

y-y_{o}=V_{o}.t+\frac{1}{2}g.t^{2}    (1)

V=V_{o}-g.t    (2)

Where:

y  is the rock's final position

y_{o}=0  is the rock's initial position

V_{o}=30\frac{m}{s} is the rock's initial velocity

V is the final velocity

t is the time the parabolic movement lasts

g=1.62\frac{m}{s^{2}}  is the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the moon

As we know y_{o}=0 , equation (2) is rewritten as:

y=V_{o}.t+\frac{1}{2}g.t^{2}    (3)

On the other hand, the maximum height  is accomplished when V=0:

V=V_{o}-g.t=0    (4)

V_{o}-g.t=0    

V_{o}=g.t    (5)

Finding t:

t=\frac{V_{o}}{g}    (6)

Substituting (6) in (3):

y=V_{o}(\frac{V_{o}}{g})+\frac{1}{2}g(\frac{V_{o}}{g})^{2}    (7)

y_{max}=\frac{{V_{o}}^{2}}{2g}    (8)  Now we can calculate the maximum height of the rock

y_{max}=\frac{{(30m/s)}^{2}}{(2)(1.62m/s^{2})}   (9)

Finally:

y_{max}=277.777m

A very powerful vacuum cleaner which has a hose of circular cross section can lift a brick of mass 12 kg when the hose is placed
valkas [14]

Answer:

A). 1.9 cm

Explanation:

m = Mass of brick = 12 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

r = Radius of hose

A = Area = \pi r^2

F = Force = mg

Let us assume that the pressure required to lift the brick would be atmospheric pressure

P=\dfrac{F}{A}\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{F}{\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\dfrac{F}{\pi P}}\\\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\dfrac{12\times 9.81}{\pi\times 101325}}\\\Rightarrow r=0.01923\ m=1.9\ cm

The radius of the hose should be 1.9 cm

How much energy is required to raise the temperature of 50.0 grams of water 10.0 degree C? (Explain yourself answer in joules!)
maria [59]

The amount of energy needed is 2093 J

Explanation:

The amount of energy needed to increase the temperature of a substance by \Delta T is given by the equation

Q=mC\Delta T

where

m is the mass of the substance

C is its specific heat capacity

\Delta T is the increase in temperature

For the water in this problem, we have

m = 50.0 g = 0.050 kg

C=4186 J/g^{\circ}C (specific heat capacity of water)

\Delta T=10.0^{\circ}C

Therefore, the amount of energy needed is

Q=(0.050)(4186)(10)=2093 J

A 90 kg person stands at the edge of a stationary children's merry-go-round at a distance of 5.0 m from its center. The person s
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

\omega = 0.016\,\frac{rad}{s}

Explanation:

The rotation rate of the man is:

\omega = \frac{v}{R}

\omega = \frac{0.80\,\frac{m}{s} }{5\,m}

\omega = 0.16\,\frac{rad}{s}

The resultant rotation rate of the system is computed from the Principle of Angular Momentum Conservation:

(90\,kg)\cdot (5\,m)^{2}\cdot (0.16\,\frac{rad}{s} ) = [(90\,kg)\cdot (5\,m)^{2}+20000\,kg\cdot m^{2}]\cdot \omega

The final angular speed is:

\omega = 0.016\,\frac{rad}{s}

A 14.8-g piece of Styrofoam carries a net charge of -0.742 µC and is suspended in equilibrium above the center of a large, horiz
MAXImum [283]
Base on your question where a 14.8g of piece of Styrofoam carries a net charge of -0.742C and is suspended in equilibrium above the center of a large, horizontal sheet of plastic so the ask of the problem is to calculate  the charge per unit area on the plastic sheet. The answer would be 21.96

You can only determine the speed since the only info we know is how much you ran in how long of a time.
