Answer:

Asking a scientific question

Explanation:

Scientific inquiry is using evidence from observations and investigations to create logical explanations and answer questions. Scientific inquiry is for people who want to be challenged and use creative and critical thinking to answer questions related to science.

The scientific method has five basic steps;

1. Ask a Question (just like the research student asking which is a better fuel between ethanol and gasoline)

2. Do Background Research

3. Construct a Hypothesis

4. Test Your Hypothesis by Doing an Experiment

5. Analyze Your Data and Draw a Conclusion

A person throws a pumpkin at a horizontal speed of 4.0 — off a cliff. The pumpkin travels 9.5 m horizontally

emmainna [20.7K]

Complete Question

A person throws a pumpkin at a horizontal speed of 4.0 m/s off a cliff. The pumpkin travels 9.5m horizontally before it hits the ground. We can ignore air resistance.What is the pumpkin's vertical displacement during the throw? What is the pumpkin's vertical velocity when it hits the ground?

Answer:

The pumpkin's vertical displacement is $H = 27 .67 \ m$

The pumpkin's vertical velocity when it hits the ground is $v_v__{f}} = 23.298 \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The horizontal speed is $v_h = 4 m/s$

The horizontal distance traveled is $d = 9.5 \ m$

The horizontal distance traveled is mathematically represented as

$S = v_h * t$

Where t is the time taken

substituting values

$9.5 = 4 * t$

=> $t = \frac{9.5}{4}$

$t = 2.38 \ sec$

Now the vertical displacement is mathematically represented as

$H = v_v t + \frac{1}{2} a_v t^2$

now the vertical velocity before the throw is zero

So

$H = 0 + \frac{1}{2} (9.8) * (2.375)^2$

$H = 27 .67 \ m$

Now the final vertical velocity is mathematically represented as

$v_v__{f}} = v_v + at$

substituting values

$v_v__{f}} = 0 + (9.8)* (2.375)$

$v_v__{f}} = 23.298 \ m/s$

At the equator, the radius of the Earth is approximately 6370 km. A plane flies at a very low altitude at a constant speed of v

Cerrena [4.2K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of linear motion. From there we will define the distance as the circumference of the earth (approximate as a sphere). With the speed given in the statement we will simply clear the equations below and find the time.

$R= 6370*10^3 m$

$v = 239m/s$

$a = 16.5m/s^2$

The circumference of the earth would be

$\phi = 2\pi R$

Velocity is defined as,

$v = \frac{x}{t}$

$t = \frac{x}{v}$

Here $x = \phi$ , then

$t = \frac{\phi}{v} = \frac{2\pi (6370*10^3)}{239}$

$t = 167463.97s$

Therefore will take 167463.97 s or 1 day 22 hours 31 minutes and 3.97seconds
