Your blood runs through your blood stream, every vein in your body. without that heartbeat the blood would not make it to the required places it needs to run to and you will lose oxygen and parts of your body and organs will shut down.

michael kicks a ball at an angle if 36* horizontal. its initial velocity is 46 m/s. Find the maximum height it can reach, total
MAVERICK [17]

(a) At its maximum height, the ball's vertical velocity is 0. Recall that

{v_y}^2-{v_{0y}}^2=2a_y\Delta y

Then at the maximum height \Delta y=y_{\mathrm{max}}, we have

-\left(\left(46\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\sin36^\circ\right)^2=2\left(-9.8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)y_{\mathrm{max}}

\implies y_{\mathrm{max}}=37\,\mathrm m

(b) The time the ball spends in the air is twice the time it takes for the ball to reach its maximum height. The ball's vertical velocity is

v_y=v_{0y}+a_yt

and at its maximum height, v_y=0 so that

0=\left(46\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\sin36^\circ+\left(-9.8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)t

\implies t=2.8\,\mathrm s

which would mean the ball spends a total of about 5.6 seconds in the air.

(c) The ball's horizontal position in the air is given by

x=v_{0x}t

so that after 5.6 seconds, it will have traversed a displacement of

x=\left(46\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\cos36^\circ(5.6\,\mathrm s)

\implies x=180\,\mathrm m

Which of the following can be thought of as either a wave or a particle?
IrinaK [193]

Both matter and light have been demonstrated to exhibit wave-like and particle-like behavior.

Light as a wave: light can diffract & refract

Light as a particle: photoelectric effect, Compton scattering

Matter as a wave: Davisson-Germer experiment

Matter as a particle: find a picture of any kinematics problem in a high school physics textbook
