7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Given dish width= 48ft

Depth = 4ft

Using equation of a parabola

x²= 4py

48² = 4p 4

4p = 576

P= 144ft

Thus the the receiver should be placed 144ft from t the vertex

Taylor Swift weighing 794 N gets on an elevator. The elevator uses 313 W of power to lift the person 22.0 m. How much time did t
mezya [45]

Answer:

55.80s

Explanation:

Power is calculated using the expression

Power = Work done/Time

Workdone= Force ×distance

Workdone = 794×22

Work done = 17468Joules

From the power formula

Time = Workdone/Power

Time = 17468/313

Time = 55.80seconds

The elevator takes 55.80seconds to life the Taylor

A stone is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 18.0 . (a)How fast is it moving when it reaches a height of 11.0 ? (b)How lo
aliina [53]
For the first part, we are looking for Vf when dy=11.0
Upward is positive, downward is negative. 
So <span>Vf = square root [2(-9.8)(11.0) + (18.0)^2] </span>
<span>Vf = 10.4 m/s your answer is correct. 

For the part b, t is equals to the time took to reach and dy is equals to 11.0
you did, </span>11= 18t m/s-(1/2) 9.8t^2 then <span>-11 + 18t- 9.8t^2. By quadratic formula, for the way down the answer is 2.9 s while on it's way up, the answer is 0.77 s</span><span>
