C = Sqrt (17.4^2 - 12.2^2) = 12.4
ArcTan (12.4/12.2) = 45.47 degrees above vector a,  which is 134.53 degrees measured on the xy-axis.

A ball is ejected to the right with an unknown horizontal velocity from the top of a pillar that is 50 meters in height. At the
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

15.67 m/s

Explanation:

The ball has a projectile motion, with a horizontal uniform motion with constant speed and a vertical accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 downward.

Let's consider the vertical motion only first: the vertical distance covered by the ball, which is S=50 m, is given by

S=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where t is the time of the fall. Substituting S=50 m and re-arranging the equation, we can find t:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2S}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(50 m)}{9.8 m/s^2}}=3.19 s

Now we now that the ball must cover a distance of 50 meters horizontally during this time, in order to fall inside the carriage; therefore, the velocity of the carriage should be:

v=\frac{d}{t}=\frac{50 m}{3.19 s}=15.67 m/s

The average lifetime of μ-mesons with a speed of 0.95c is measured to be 6 x 10^6 s. Find the average lifetime of μ-mesons in a
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

19.2*10^6 s

Explanation:

The equation for time dilation is:

t = \frac{t'}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}}

Then, if it is observed to have a life of 6*10^6 s, and it travels at 0.95 c:

t = \frac{6*10^6}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(0.95c)^2}{c^2}}} = 19.2*10^6 s

It has a lifetime of 19.2*10^6 s when observed from a frame of reference in which the particle is at rest.

A car battery has a rating of 170 ampere-hours. This rating is one indication of the total charge that the battery can provide t
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

612000 C

Explanation:

Current, I, is given as the rate of flow of charge, that is:

I = Δq / Δt

where q = electric charge

t = time taken

This implies that:

Δq = I * Δt

The battery rating is 170 Ampere-hours, therefore:

Δq = 170 * 1 hour

But 1 hour = 3600 seconds;

=> Δq = 170 * 3600 = 612000 C

The total charge that the battery can provide is 612000 C.

While on an ice-fishing trip, you find yourself holding a 10 kg fish but stuck in the middle of
Anna007 [38]

The forward force you exert on the fish and your backward action will allow you to reach the shore.

<h3>Newton's third law of motion</h3>

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Fa = -Fb

Let's assume the fish is held in the hook, this will give you the opportunity to throw the fish forward while still holding it.

When the the fish is thrown forward, you will move backwards with an equal force based on Newton's third law. Your backward momentum towards the shore will help to maintain equal linear momentum between you and the fish.

Thus, this forward force of the fish and your backward action will allow you to reach the shore.
