This is a projectile motion problem, so, we use the formula for trajectory:

y =xtanα + gx^2/2v^2(cosα)^2

where 
y is the vertical distance (y = 50 m)
x is the horizontal distance (x=90 m)
α is the angle of trajectory; since it levels of HORIZONTALLY, α = 0°
v is the initial velocity 
g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.81 m/s^2

Substituting to the formula,

50 =90tan(0°) + (9.81)(90)^2/2v^2(cos0°)^2
v = 28.2 m/s

Answer:

The Horizontal component of initial velocity (V0x) must be 28.18 m/s.

Explanation:

Vertical distance = y = 50m    

Horizontal distance = x = 90 m  

We know that,

x = x0 + V0xt  

where,

x0 = Initial distance in horizontal direction = 0  

V0x = x/t = 90/t          ……… (i)

As,  

y = y0 + V0y + ½ gt^2

where,

y0 = Initial distance in vertical direction = 0

V0y = Vertical component of initial velocity = 0

So,

t = √(50)(2)/(9.8)

t = 3.194 s

Put t = 3.194 s in equation (i),

V0x = 90/3.194

V0x = 28.18 m/s

Why are sunlight and gravity not considered matter?
Nady [450]

Sunlight and gravity are not considered matter because sunlight does not have  a rest mass that is characteristic of matter while gravity is just a vector component of matter.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Sunlight has energy and momentum that makes it similar to matter but it cannot be considered matter when you consider all the factors that are characteristic of matter. Light is an electromagnetic wave that is made up of photons and  the protons do not have rest mass.

Gravity is  a vector component of matter that has both magnitude as well as direction and the gravity increases with increase in mass of an object.

Read the scenario. A car travels 25 m/s forward for 10 s. Which option accurately identifies the measurements within the scenari
Phantasy [73]

Explanation:

It is given that,

A car travels 25 m/s forward for 10 s.

Solution,

For a vector, a quantity must have both magnitude as well as the direction. For a scalar, a quantity have only the magnitude. In this case, the car moves in forward direction.  This is the only difference between the vector and the scalar.

Out of given option,s the correct option is (c) "The measurement 25 m/s is the only vector quantity because it is a measurement of speed".

Course hero N4M.6 A board has one end wedged under a rock having a mass of 380 kg and is supported by another rock that touches
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Therefore it is save to carry a 62kg adult

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass m=380kg

Height of supporting Rock X=85cm

Length of BoardL_r=4.5m

Mass of board M_b=22kg

Mass of adult M_a=62  

Generally the moment of balance about wedge part about  is mathematically given by

N -Q + R = Mg + mg

0.85*N - Mg*2.25 - mg*(2.25 + x) = 0

0.85*N  = + Mg*2.25 + mg*(2.25 + x)

where

N+R=4547

therefore

N = 570.70588 + 1608.3529 + 714.823 x

if N=0 at fallen person

x=3.04m

Therefore it is save to carry a 62kg adult
