<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

Express 79 m in units of (a) centimeters
dem82 [27]

Answer: a) 7,00 centimeters

(b) 259. 19 feet

(c) 3110.28 inches

(d) 0.049 miles

Explanation:

(a) We know that 1 meter = 100 centimeters

Therefore,

79\ m= 7,900\text{ centimeters}

(b)Since 1 meter = 3.28084 feet

Then, 79\ m= 79\times3.28084=259.18636\approx 259.19\text{ feet}

(c) Since, 1 feet = 12 inches.

79\ m=259.19\text{ feet}=259.19\times12=3110.28\text{ inches}

(d) \text{Since 1 feet= }\dfrac{1}{5280}\text{ mile}

79\ m=259.19\text{ feet}=\dfrac{259.19}{5280}= 0.0490890151515\approx0.049\text{ miles}

Microwave ovens have a plate that rotates at a rate of about 7.0 rev/min. What is this in revolutions per second?
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

The value is  w =  0.1167 \ rev/second

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The rate at which the plate rotates is  w =7.0 \ rev/min

Generally the revolution per second is mathematically represented as

       w =  \frac{7.0}{60}

=>    w =  0.1167 \ rev/second
