Answer:

The answer to your question is:

a)  t1 = 2.99 s ≈ 3 s

b)  vf = 39.43 m/s

Explanation:

Data

vo = 10 m/s

h = 74 m

g = 9.81 m/s

t = ?   time to reach the ground

vf = ?   final speed

a)    h = vot + (1/2)gt²

     74 = 10t + (1/2)9.81t²

     4.9t² + 10t -74 = 0                  solve by using quadratic formula

   

   t = (-b ± √ (b² -4ac) / 2a

   t = (-10 ± √ (10² -4(4.9(-74) / 2(4.9)

   t = (-10 ± √ 1550.4 ) / 9.81

  t1 = (-10 + √ 1550.4 ) / 9.81               t2 = (-10 - √ 1550.4 ) / 9.81

  t1 = (-10 ± 39.38 ) / 9.81                    t2 = (-10 - 39.38) / 9.81

   t1 = 2.99 s ≈ 3 s                               t2 = is negative then is wrong there are

                                                                   no negative times.

b) Formula vf = vo + gt

                  vf = 10 + (9.81)(3)

                  vf = 10 + 29.43

                  vf = 39.43 m/s

A soccer ball with mass 0.450 kg is initially moving with speed 2.20 m/s. A soccer player kicks the ball, exerting a constant fo
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

0.187 m

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the acceleration of the ball. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 0.450 Kg

Force (F) = 38 N

Acceleration (a) =?

F = m × a

38 = 0.450 × a

Divide both side by 0.450

a = 38 / 0.450

a = 84.44 m/s²

Finally, we shall determine the distance. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 2.20 m/s.

Final velocity (v) = 6 m/s

Acceleration (a) = 84.44 m/s²

Distance (s) =?

v² = u² + 2as

6² = 2.2² + (2 × 84.44 × s)

36 = 4.4 + 168.88s

Collect like terms

36 – 4.84 = 168.88s

31.52 = 168.88s

Divide both side by 168.88

s = 31.52 / 168.88

s = 0.187 m

Thus, the distance is 0.187 m

(6.MS-ETS2-1(MA).) The electrons in __________ move about more freely than the electrons in insulators which is why this type of
Tresset [83]

Answer:

A) conductors

Explanation:

A conductor can be defined as any material or object that allows the free flow of current or electrons (charge) in one or more directions in an electrical circuit. Some examples of a conductor are metals, tungsten, copper, aluminum, iron, graphite, etc.

Basically, the main purpose of a conductor in physics is to provide a low-resistance path between electrical circuits or components. This low-resistance path is to ensure that the electrical components allows the free flow of electrons and thus, enabling charge transfer.

Hence, the electrons in conductors move about more freely than the electrons in insulators which is why this type of material can be used to create electric circuits because it would significantly provide a low-resistance path between the electric circuits.

a hippopotamus produces a pressure of 250000 pa when it is standing on all four feet if the weight of the hippo is 40000 N what
mamaluj [8]

0.04m²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Pressure = 250000Pa

Weight = 40000N

Unknown:

Area of each foot = ?

Solution:

Pressure is the force exerted per unit area of a body

  Pressure = \frac{force}{area}

To find the area;

        Area = \frac{force }{pressure}

    Area = \frac{40000}{250000} = 0.16m²

The force exerted by all the four feet is 0.16m²

the area of each feet = \frac{0.16}{4} = 0.04m²

Describe 1 way to reduce the shortage of food for a growing human population.
alexira [117]

The answer is; producing genetically modified organism


GMOs have been shown to produce varieties of organisms that have increased yields and  are resistant to the upsets of climate change and diseases. GMOs are made by introducing genes into an organism that will confer particular desired traits such as disease and drought resistance.
