Answer:

a) It takes the stone 0.7743 s to reach a height of 11 m for the first time on its way up and 2.899 s to reach again that height on its way down.

b) At t = 0.7743 s the velocity is 10.41 m/s and at t = 2.899 s the velocity is -10.41 m/s.

c) There are two answers because the stone reaches the height of 11 m one time on its way up and one more time again on its way down.

Please, see the attached figures and the explanation for a description of the figures.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equations for the height and velocity of the stone are as follows:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

v = v0 + g · t

Where:

y = height

y0 = initial height

v0 = initial velocity

t = time

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive)

v = velocity at time t

a) Let´s calculate the time it takes the stone to reach a height of 11 m. The origin of the frame of reference is at the throwing point so that y0 = 0:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²        

11 m = 18 m/s · t - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t²    

0 = -4.9 m/s² · t² + 18 m/s · t - 11 m

Solving the quadratic equation:

t = 0.7743 s and t = 2.899 s

(Notice that I have used more significant figures to avoid error by rounding)

The stone will be two times at a height of 11 m, one on its way up (at 0.7743 s) and one on its way down  (at 2.899 s). Then, it takes the stone 0.7743 s to reach a height of  11 m for the first time.

b)  Let´s use the equation of velocity:

v = v0 + g · t

at t = 0.77443 s

v = 18 m/s - 9.8 m/s² · 0.77443 s

v = 10.41 m/s

at t = 2.899 s

v = 18 m/s - 9.8 m/s² · 2.899 s

v = - 10.41 m/s

(Both velocities have to be of the same magnitude but of different sign, that´s why I haven´t rounded the time.)

c) There are two answers because the stone reaches the height of 11 m one time on its way up and one more time again on its way down. On its way up, the velocity is 10.41 m/s and on its way down it is -10.41 m/s.

Figures

The functions to plot are the following:

height in function of time (figure 1, x-axis: time. y-axis: height)

y = -4.9t² + 18t

velocity in function of time (figure 2, x-axis: time. y-axis velocity)

v = -9.8t + 18

Acceleration in function of time (figure 3, x-axis: time. y-axis: acceleration)

a = -9.8

klasskru [66]

Answer:

50.8 watt

Explanation:

we know that P=W÷t

W=F.S           S-->distance=50 ft= 15.24 m

F=ma

=100×10=1000 N

SO W= 1000×15.24

        =15240 J

NOW

P=W÷t          t=5 mints = 5×60=300 sec

P=15240÷300

P=50.8 watt

Hey there!

Here is your answer:

<u><em>The proper answer to this question is option C "</em></u><span><u><em>0.00349".</em></u>

Reason:

</span><span><u><em>1 L = 100 cL. Or 1 cL = 0.01 L</em></u>

</span><span><u><em>34.9 cL = 34.9 / 100 L = 0.349 L</em></u>

</span><span><u><em> 1 hL = 100 L. 0.349 L = 0.349 / 100 hL = 0.00349 hL</em></u>

<em>Therefore the answer is option C!</em>

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!
