The maximum height is: hmax  = v0² sin² α / 2 g<span>
The horizontal range is: x = v0² sin 2 α / g</span>

So we are given that:

x = 14.5 hmax

v0² sin 2 α / g = 14.5 v0² sin² α / 2 g<span>
<span>7.25 sin² α = 2 sin α cos α    
<span>7.25 sin α = 2 cos α  
7.25 tan α = 2
<span>tan α = 0.27586
<span>α = tan^(-1) 0.27586
α = 15.42°<span>
<span>The angle of projection is 15.42</span></span><span>°</span></span></span></span></span></span>

Calculate the average force with which the Sun pulls the Earth. It will help to know
algol13

Answer:

7.9 x 10^21 pound-force

Explanation:

The average distance between the Earth and sun is 150 trillion meters, or 1.5 x 10^11 meters. The mass of the sun is 1.99 x 10^30 kilograms, while the Earth weighs in at 6.0 x 10^24 kilograms. The gravitational constant is 6.67 x 10^-11 meter^3 / (kilogram - second^2). So the Earth and sun pull on each other with a force equal to 3.52 x 10^22 newtons. The newton is a unit of force equal to a kilogram-meter/second^2. One newton is equal to 0.22 of the rarely used English unit called pound-force, so 3.52 x 10^22 newtons is 7.9 x 10^21 pound-force.

Describe the responses of the human ear to sound waves coming from the
maria [59]

If the sound comes from the right side, the waves reach the right ear before the left ear. if the sound comes from the left side, the waves reach the left ear before the right ear. The difference between the phases of waves reaching both ears is detected by the ears and then interpreted by the brain
