If an object is propelled upward from a height of 128 feet at an initial velocity of 112 feet per​ second, then its height h aft

er t seconds is given by the equation h equals negative 16 t squared plus 112 t plus 128. After how many seconds does the object hit the​ ground? Round to the nearest tenth of a second.

Explanation:

The equation of motion of an object is given by :

h(t)=-16t^2+112t+128

Where

t is the time in seconds

We need to find the time when the object hits the ground. When the object hits the ground, h(t) = 0

So,

-16t^2+112t+128=0

-t^2+7t+8=0

On solving above equation using online calculator, t = 8 seconds. So, the object hit the ground after 8 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

If the child pulls with a force of 20 N for 12.0 m , and the handle of the wagon is inclined at an angle of 25 ∘ above the horiz
lilavasa [31]

Answer: 217.52 N

Explanation: The applied force is 20 N, the distance covered is 12.0 m and the angle is 25° above the horizontal.

Hence the formulae that defines work done is given by

W = Force × distance

But since the force has been inclined at an angle θ above the horizontal, the horizontal component of force is neccesary to produce the required motion to make the child do work on the wagon.

Hence

Work done = (horizontal component of force) × distance

Work done = F cos θ × distance

Work done = 20 cos 25 × 12 = 217.52 N

Mike recently purchased an optical telescope. Identify the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that is closest to the frequency
Zepler [3.9K]
The elctromagnetic spectrum ranges from the radiowaves to the gamma rays. The whole spectrum is shown in the attached picture. But the optical telescope can only see the visible region. So, it only covers from the 400 nm to 700 nm frequency. It follows the ROYGBIV colors, where red has the highest frequency and violet has the lowest frequency.

Science Seminar Question: Why did Vehicle 2 fall off the cliff in Claire's test of the collision scene but Vehicle 2 did not fal
asambeis [7]

Complete Question:

Check the file attached to get the complete question

Answer:

In the film Ice word Revenge, vehicle 2 did not fall of the cliff because, Weight_{vehicle 1} < Weight_{vehicle 2} but in Claire's test, vehicle 2 off the cliff because Weight_{vehicle 1} \geq Weight_{vehicle 2}

Explanation:

In Claire's test, the weight of vehicle 1 is either equal to or greater than the weight of vehicle 2, so it was sufficient to push it down the cliff.  In the film Ice word revenge, the weight of vehicle 1 is less than the weight of vehicle 2, it is not sufficient to make it fall off the cliff ( Note: Looking exactly the same in the movie, as Claire claimed, does not mean they have the same mass). Therefore if Claire wants a collision that will not make the vehicle 2 fall off the cliff, he should collide it with a vehicle of lesser mass/weight.
