Answer:

The football must be launched whit an angle of 20,487 degrees to reach a maximum height of 10 meters.

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the parabolic motion equations:

We define:

v_{i}: total initial speed  =40\frac{m}{s}

v_{iy}:initial speed component in vertical direction (y) =v_{i} sin\alpha

v_{y}: vertical speed at any point on the parabolic path

g= acceleration of gravity= 9,8 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

\alpha= angle that forms the total initial velocity with the ground

Equation of the speed of the football in the vertical direction :

(v_{y} )^{2}=(v_{iy} )^{2} -2*g*y  Equation (1)  

We replacev_{iy} =40*sin\alpha, g=9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }  in the equation (1):

(v_{y} )^{2} =(40*sin\alpha )^{2} -2*9.8*y Equation(2)

Angle calculation

The speed of the football in the vertical direction gradually decreases until its value is zero when it reaches the maximum height.

We replacev_{y} =0 , y=10 in the equation (2)

0=(40*sin\alpha )^{2} -2*9.8*10

0=1600*(sin\alpha )^{2} -196

\frac{196}{1600} =(sen\alpha )^{2}

0.1225=(sin\alpha )^{2}

\sqrt{0.1225} =sin\alpha

0.35=sin\alpha

\alpha =20.487 °

Answer:The football must be launched whit an angle of 20,487 degrees to reach a maximum height of 10 meters.

34 A metal displaces 5.0 cm3 of water when it is totally immersed. If the mass of the metal is 35.0 g, calculate its density A:
Elenna [48]
Density = mass/volume

Mass = 35g
Volume = 5cm3

35/5 = 7g/cm3

So the answer is A to 1 decimal place

A space station, in the form of a wheel 119 m in diameter, rotates to provide an "artificial gravity" of 2.20 m/s2 for persons w
Rina8888 [55]
<span>Well, since it's in the shape of a wheel and the person walks around the edge of it, they must have a centripetal acceleration. Since a=v^2/r you can solve for "v" using 2.20 as your "a" and 59.5 as your "r" (r=half of the diameter).
</span> a=v^2/r 
 v=(a*r)^(1/2)=((2.20)*(59.5))^(1/2)=<span> <span>11.44 m/s.
</span></span><span> After you get "v," plugged that into T=2 pi r/ v. This will give you the 1rev per sec.
</span> T=2 pi r/ v= T=(2)*(pi)*(59.5)/(11.44)= <span> <span>32.68 rev/s
</span></span> Use dimensional analysis to get rev per min (1rev / # sec) times (60 sec/min). 
 (32.68 rev/s)(60 s/min)=<span> <span>1960.74 rev/min
</span></span>

Stells [14]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Sunlight comes in the form of light energy. Upon striking the solar panels, it converts the light energy into electrical energy so as to run throughout the circuits. Then since it's used to power light, the electrical energy will be converted back into light energy
