A soccer ball is kicked from the ground with an initial speed v at an upward angle θ. A player a distance d away in the directio

n of the kick starts running towards the ball at that instant. What must be his average speed if he is to meet the ball just before it hits the ground?

Answer:

U = √Rg/sin2θ

Explanation:

Using the formula for "range" in projectile motion to derive the average speed before the ball hits the ground.

Range is the distance covered by the body in the horizontal direction from the point of launch to the point of landing.

According to the range formula,

R = U²sin2θ/g

Cross multiplying we have;

Rg = U²sin2θ

Dividing both sides by sin2θ, we have;

U² = Rg/sin2θ

Taking the square root of both sides we have;

√U² = √Rg/sin2θ

U = √Rg/sin2θ

Therefore, his average speed if he is to meet the ball just before it hits the ground is √Rg/sin2θ

Explain whether smoke filling up a room is diffusion or not
pogonyaev
Yes, it is diffusion !

Diffusion is the process in which gas, through random movement of particles, tends to fill up the whole volume of the container in which it is placed. So a similar process would lead the smoke, which is in form of gas (or light particles), to fill in the whole room in which it is contained.

Let two objects of equal mass m collide. Object 1 has initial velocityv, directed to the right, and object 2 isinitially station
3241004551 [841]
<span>Our equation 1 would be
m*v=M*V1+m*V2
v=V1+V2
 v-V1=V2 

the equation 2 would look like this
 </span>V^2=V1^2+V2^2  
V^2-V1^2=V2^2
(V-V1)*(V+V1)=V2^2Dividing with the 1
V+V1=V2

What is the exact meaning of croos section and cross sectional area of a conductor?
Sonbull [250]
The cross section is the little tiny circle you see when you cut a wire
and look at the flat, cut end.

The cross-sectional area of the wire is the area of that little circle. 
It's equal to

                           Area = (pi) x (1/4) x (Diameter of the wire)²
