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.

ANTONII [103]
From the information given and if the question is complete then;
Absolute temperature is the temperature in Kelvin
To convert degree Celsius to kelvin we normally add 273
that is Kelvin = deg Celsius + 273
Thus since we have been given that the air was at -70 degrees celcius;
then; - 70° C  + 273 = 203 K
 Therefore; the absolute temperature is 203 K

Answer: The answer is A for sure

Explanation:

That is, there will be no acceleration. If you are sitting at rest in a chair and the upward push of the chair is equal to the downward pull of gravity, you will stay at rest in the chair. ... You now have an unbalanced force acting on you and therefore, according to Newton's First Law, your motion is going to change.

Plz give brainlest :)
