Answer:

a) t=0.95s

b) x=2.46m

c) v=8.23m/s

Explanation:

From the exercise we know that the initial height is 3m and the initial velocity is 3 m/s at 30º above the horizontal

a) To calculate how long does the cat stays in the air we need to know that at that moment y=0

y=y_{o}+v_{oy}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

0=3+3sin(30)t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2

Solving the quadratic equation for t:

t=\frac{-b±\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

a=-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)\\b=3sin(30)\\c=3

t=-0.64s or t=0.95s

Since time can not be negative, the cat stays in the air for 0.95s

b) The horizontal displacement is:

x=v_{ox}t

x=(3cos(30)m/s)(0.95s)=2.46m

c) To find its velocity when it hits the ground we need to analyze both x and y motion

v_{x}=v_{ox}+at=3cos(30)=2.6m/s

v_{y}=v_{oy}-gt=3sin(30)m/s-9.8m/s^2(0.95s)=-7.81m/s

So, v is:

v=\sqrt{v_{x}^{2}+v_{y}^{2}}=\sqrt{(2.6m/s)^2+(-7.81m/s)^2}=8.23m/s

Mariana [72]

Answer:

6 gallons

Explanation:

At 30 mph, the fuel mileage is 25 mpg.

After 5 hours, the distance traveled is:

30 mi/hr × 5 hr = 150 mi

The amount of gas used is:

150 mi × (1 gal / 25 mi) = 6 gal

"5 N, up" is an example of a ___.<br> OA) force<br> OB) mass<br> OC) weight<br> OD) magnitude
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

A) Force

Explanation:

It is an example of force since force is a vector quantity so it has magnitude and direction. In this case the magnitude is equal to 5 [N] and the direction is upward.

The weight can not be, as it always acts downward.

Mass is not a force, its unit is given usually in kilogram [kg]

two large boxes sit side by side on a sidewalk. the box on the left has a mass of 80kg and the box on the right has a mass of 50
garri49 [273]

     The force that prevents motion when the surfaces of two objects come into contact is known as friction. Friction decreases a machine's mechanical advantage, or, to put it another way, reduces the output to input ratio.

<h3>How can I figure out the frictional force?</h3>

        The resistive force of friction (Fr) divided by the normal or perpendicular force (N) pushing the objects together yields the coefficient of friction (fr), which is a numerical value.

The formula fr = Fr/N serves as a representation of it.

Therefore, 100N of force is needed to move an item with a mass of 50 kg.

It will accelerate by 10 m/s2.

If a substance's mass does not change over time, friction cannot affect it. Instead, friction can be affected in a variety of ways by an object's mass.
