Erosion happens when rocks and sediments are picked up and moved to another place by ice, water, wind or gravity.

An object is thrown upward with some velocity. If the object rises 77.5 m above the point of release, (a) how fast was the objec
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

v_o=39\ m/s\\t_m=4\ s

Explanation:

<u>Vertical Launch Upwards</u>

In a vertical launch upwards, an object is launched vertically up from a height H without taking into consideration any kind of friction with the air.

If vo is the initial speed and g is the acceleration of gravity, the maximum height reached by the object is given by:

\displaystyle h_m=H+\frac{v_o^2}{2g}

The object referred to in the question is thrown from a height H=0 and the maximum height is hm=77.5 m.

(a)

To find the initial speed we solve for vo:

\displaystyle v_o=\sqrt{2gh_m}

v_o=\sqrt{2\cdot 9.8\cdot 77.5}

v_o=39\ m/s

(b)

The maximum time or the time taken by the object to reach its highest  point is calculated as follows:

\displaystyle t_m=\frac{v_o}{g}

\displaystyle t_m=\frac{39}{9.8}

t_m=4\ s

A ball of mass m= 450.0 g traveling at a speed of 8.00 m/s impacts a vertical wall at an angle of θi =45.00 below the horizontal
Mkey [24]

Answer:

   F = 20.4 i ^

Explanation:

This exercise can be solved using the ratio of momentum and amount of movement.

     I = F t = Dp

Since force and amount of movement are vector quantities, each axis must be worked separately.

X axis

Let's look for speed

      cos 45 = vₓ / v

      vₓ = v cos 45

      vₓ = 8 cos 45

      vₓ = 5,657 m / s

We write the moment

Before the crash                          p₀ = m vₓ

After the shock                            p_{f} = -m vₓ

The variation of the moment      Δp = mvₓ - (-mvₓ) = 2 m vₓ

The impulse on the x axis           Fₓ t = Δp

       

        Fₓ = 2 m vₓ / t

        Fx = 2 0.450 5.657 / 0.250

        Fx = 20.4 N

We perform the same calculation on the y axis

       sin  45 = vy / v

       vy = v sin 45

       vy = 8 sin 45

       vy = 5,657 m / s

We calculate the initial momentum   po = m v_{y}

Final moment                                      p_{f} = m v_{y}

Variations moment                             Δp = mv_{y} - mv_{y} = 0

Force in the Y-axis                             F_{y} = 0

Therefore the total force is

       F = fx i ^ + Fyj ^

       F = Fx i ^

       F = 20.4 i ^

18m

Explanation:

v=frequency × wavelenght

wavelength=v/f

wavelength=360÷20

=18m
