<span>1. We can learn what types of organisms lived at what times and where they lived.

2. We can learn about when certain groups of animals evolved and what their ancestors were like.

3. We can learn how the continents drifted by comparing where fossil species have been found (for example, a species that was found in Africa and South America but couldn't cross an ocean would tell us that Africa and South America used to be connected.

4. We can learn about organisms that no longer exist, including what they ate and looked like, how big they were, and other traits.</span>

A ball is thrown toward a cliff of height h with a speed of 33 m/s and an angle of 60∘ above horizontal. It lands on the edge of

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

(a). The height of the cliff is 41.67 m.

(b). The maximum height of the ball is 41.67 m

(c). The ball's impact speed is 16.52 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 33 m/s

Angle = 60°

Time = 3.0 sec

(a). We need to calculate the height of the cliff

Using equation of motion

$h=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$h=(u\sin60)\times t-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

Put the value into the formula

$h=33\times\sin60\times3.0-\dfrac{1}{2}\times9.8\times(3.0)^2$

$h=41.6\ m$

(b). We need to calculate the maximum height of the ball

Using formula of height

$h_{max}=\dfrac{(u\sin\theta)^2}{2g}$

Put the value into the formula

$h=\dfrac{(33\sin60)^2}{2\times 9.8}$

$h=41.67\ m$

(c). We need to calculate the vertical component of velocity of ball

Using equation of motion

$v=u-gt$

$v=u\sin\theta-gt$

Put the value into the formula

$v_{y}=33\times\sin 60-9.8\times3.0$

$v_{y}=-0.82\ m/s$

We need to calculate the horizontal component of velocity of ball

Using formula of velocity

$v_{x}=u\cos\theta$

Put the value into the formula

$v_{x}=33\times\cos60$

$v_{x}=16.5\ m/s$

We need to calculate the ball's impact speed

Using formula of velocity

$v=\sqrt{v_{x}^2+v_{y}^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$v=\sqrt{(16.5)^2+(-0.82)^2}$

$v=16.52\ m/s$

Hence, (a). The height of the cliff is 41.67 m.

(b). The maximum height of the ball is 41.67 m

(c). The ball's impact speed is 16.52 m/s.

an automobile has a tire pressure of 325 kpa when the temperature is 10°C of the temperature rises to 50°C what is the new press

Finger [1]

Old temperature = 283 K.
New temp = 323 K.

(323/283) x (325 kPa) = 371 kPa.
