Answer:

Explanation:

a ) The earth rotates by 2π radian in 24 x 60 x 60 s

so angular speed ( w )  = 2π / (24 x 60 x 60)  = 7.268 x  10⁻⁵ rad / s

b ) Linear speed of city of Arlington ( v )  = w r = w R Cosλ where R is radius of the earth and λ is latitude .

v = 7.268 x 10⁻⁵ x  6.371 x 10⁶ cos 32.7357

389.5 m /s

acceleration = w² r = w² R Cos 32.7357

= (7.268 x 10⁻⁵ )² x 6.371 x 10⁶ x cos 32.7357

=283.08 x 10⁻⁴ m/s²

c) velocity ratio =

w r /w R =

R cos 32.73/ R  

= Cos 32.73

= 0.84 .

(1 point) A projectile is fired from ground level with an initial speed of 600 m/sec and an angle of elevation of 30 degrees. Us
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

(a) The range of the projectile is 31,813.18 m

(b) The maximum height of the projectile is 4,591.84 m

(c) The speed with which the projectile hits the ground is 670.82 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial speed of the projectile, u = 600 m/s

angle of projection, θ = 30⁰

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

(a) The range of the projectile in meters;

R = \frac{u^2sin \ 2\theta}{g} \\\\R = \frac{600^2 sin(2\times 30^0)}{9.8} \\\\R = \frac{600^2 sin (60^0)}{9.8} \\\\R = 31,813.18 \ m

(b) The maximum height of the projectile in meters;

H = \frac{u^2 sin^2\theta}{2g} \\\\H = \frac{600^2 (sin \ 30)^2}{2\times 9.8} \\\\H = \frac{600^2 (0.5)^2}{19.6} \\\\H = 4,591.84 \ m

(c) The speed with which the projectile hits the ground is;

v^2 = u^2 + 2gh\\\\v^2 = 600^2 + (2 \times 9.8)(4,591.84)\\\\v^2 = 360,000 + 90,000.064\\\\v = \sqrt{450,000.064} \\\\v = 670.82 \ m/s

A rock is launched at angle theta=53.2∘ above the horizontal from an altitude of ℎ=182 km with an initial speed ????0=1.61 km/s.
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

The rock's final speed at the required altitude will be 42.24 m/s.

Explanation:

Let's start by finding the initial vertical speed.

Vertical Speed = 1.61 * Sin (53.2°)

Vertical Speed = 0.8 m/s

We want to know the speed of the rock when it is at an altitude of 91 km.

The total displacement of the rock from its starting position will thus be equal to -91 km

We can use this in the following equation:

s=u*t+\frac{1}{2} (a*t^2)

-91=0.8*t+\frac{1}{2} (-9.8*t^2)

t = 4.3918 seconds

Thus it takes 4.3918 seconds to reach the required altitude. We can now find the speed as follows:

V=U+at

V=0.8+(-9.8)*(4.3918)

V = -42.24

Thus the rock's final speed at the required altitude will be 42.24 m/s.
