The maximum speed with which you can throw a stone is about 20 m/s. Can you hit a window 45 m away horizontally and 10 m up from

the point where the stone leaves your hand? What is the maximum height of a window you can hit at this distance?

Answer:

 y = 17 m

Explanation:

For this projectile launch exercise, let's write the equation of position

          x = v₀ₓ t

          y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

let's substitute

          45 = v₀ cos θ t

          10 = v₀ sin θ t - ½ 9.8 t²

the maximum height the ball can reach where the vertical velocity is zero

 

           v_{y} = v_{oy} - gt

           0 = v₀ sin θ - gt

           0 = v₀ sin θ - 9.8 t

Let's write our system of equations

         45 = v₀ cos θ  t

         10 = v₀ sin θ t - ½ 9.8 t²

         0 = v₀ sin θ - 9.8 t

We have a system of three equations with three unknowns for which it can be solved.

Let's use the last two

        v₀ sin θ = 9.8 t

we substitute

        10 = (9.8 t) t - ½ 9.8 t2

        10 = ½ 9.8 t2

        10 = 4.9 t2

        t = √ (10 / 4.9)

        t = 1,429 s

Now let's use the first equation and the last one

         45 = v₀ cos θ t

         0  = v₀ sin θ - 9.8 t

         9.8 t = v₀  sin θ

         45 / t = v₀ cos θ

we divide

         9.8t / (45 / t) = tan θ

          tan θ = 9.8 t² / 45

          θ = tan⁻¹ ( 9.8 t² / 45 )

          θ = tan⁻¹ (0.4447)

          θ = 24º

Now we can calculate the maximum height

         v_y² = v_{oy}^2 - 2 g y

         vy = 0

          y = v_{oy}^2 / 2g

          y = (20 sin 24)²/2 9.8

          y = 3,376 m

the other angle that gives the same result is

       θ‘= 90 - θ

       θ' = 90 -24

       θ'= 66'

for this angle the maximum height is

 

          y = v_{oy}^2 / 2g

          y = (20 sin 66)²/2 9.8

           y = 17 m

thisis the correct

The current and the potential difference in an inductor are in phase. B. The current lags the potential difference by π/2 in an
slava [35]

Answer:

The current lags the potential difference by π/2 in an inductor

Explanation:

The potential difference leads to the current by  \frac{\pi}{2}. Alternate signals such as current and voltage -in this case- are periodic, this means that this signals are repeated at fixed spaces of time. Thus, In an inductor the current lags the potential difference by \frac{\pi}{2}.

You're an electrical engineer designing an alternator (the generator that charges a car's battery). Mechanical engineers specify
Julli [10]

Answer:

13.78 mT

Explanation:

The peak voltage ε = ωNAB where ω = angular speed of coil = 1500 rpm = 1500 × 2π/60 rad/s = 50π rad/s = 157.08 rad/s, N = number of turns of coil = 250, A = area of coil = πr² where r = radius of coil = 10 cm = 0.10 m,

A = π(0.1 m)² = 0.03142 m² and B = magnetic field strength

So,

B = ε/ωNA  

substituting the values of the variables into the equation given that ε = 17 V

So, B = ε/ωNA

B = 17 V/(157.08 rad/s × 250 turns × 0.03142 m²)

B = 17 V/(1233.8634 rad-turns-m²/s)

B = 0.01378 T

B = 13.78 mT

Answer:

B. Northern Canada

Explanation:

A continental polar air mass can form over the land during the winter months. In the Northern Hemisphere, it originates in northern Canada or Alaska. As it moves southward, it brings dry weather conditions to the United States. Temperature and humidity levels are both low. Hope this helps :)
