A) The longest horizontal distance is reached at 45 degrees angle. This is true for any projectile launch.

B) First, calculate fligth time (using the vertical motion) and then calculate the horizontal movement.

Flight time = 2* ascendent time

ascendent time => final vertical velocity, Vy, = 0

sin(45) = Voy / Vo => Voy = Vosin(45) = 25.5 m/s * (√2) / 2 = 18.03 m/s

Vy = Voy - gt = 0  => Voy = gt = t = Voy / g

Use g = 10 m/s^ (it is an aproximation, because the actual value is about 9.81 m/s^2 depending on the latitud)

t = 18.03 m/s / 10 m/s^2 = 1.83 s

This is the ascendant time going upward.

The flight time is 2*1.83 = 3.66 s

Horizontal motion

Horizontal velocity = Vx = constant = Vox = Vo*cos(45) = 18.03 m/s

Vx = x / t => x = Vx*t

Horizontal distance = xmax = 18.03m/s*3.66 s = 65.99 m

c) The time the ballon will be in the air was calculated in the part B, it is 18.03 s

7 cards are drawn from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. How many different 7-card hands are possible if the drawing is done
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

The number of different 7 card hands possibility is  133784560

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of different 7 card hands possibility is shown below:

Here we use the combination as the orders of choosing it is not significant

So,

The number of the different hands possible would be

= ^{52}C_7

= 52! ÷ (7! × (52 - 7)!)

= 133784560

Hence, the number of different 7 card hands possibility is  133784560

fomenos

Answer:

The slope from point O to point A is 3 times the slope of the line from point A to point B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the entire line is 1. The slope from point A to point B is also 1. 1 multiplied by 3 is still 1, which means that the slope from point O to point A is also 1.

alekssr [168]

Answer:

She has to pay $20078.7 amount.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Beth owes 17,000 on her car loan. The interest rate on her loan is 4.25% She will be paying this loan off for 4 years.

To find : How much will she pay altogether?

Solution :

Using compound interest formula,

A = P(1 + r)

Where A is the amount

P is the principle P=17,000

P is the rate r=4.25%=0.0425

t is the time t= 4 years

Substitute the value,

Therefore, She has to pay $20078.7 amount.
