D.What is the best angle to throw a ball for maximum distance? Because this is the only question in above all of them which has some scientific investigation like angle that is use in many of the physics relations.

The correct choice is

D.What is the best angle to throw a ball for maximum distance

A) Incorrect . Since the which sport is fun varies person to person.

B) Incorrect. This question does not need a scientific investigation to be carried out to answer it. instead we can search the for the records of the pitcher of the last hundred years and then do a comparison.

C) Incorrect. This is more of general knowledge question

D) Correct. we can carry out a scientific investigation by throwing a ball at same speed and various angles and check at which angle does the ball travel the maximum distance.

An injured monkey sits perched on a tree branch 9 m above the ground, while a wildlife veterinarian is kneeling down in the bush

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

The hunter should aim directly at the perched monkey because the tranquilizer dart will fall away from the line sight at the same rate that the monkey falls from its perch.

Tan theta = 9 / 90 = .1 so theta = 5.71 deg

The time for the monkey to reach the ground is

t = (2 h / g)^1/2 = (18 / 9.8)^1/2 = 1.36 sec

So the horizontal speed of the dart must be at least

Vx = 90 m / 1.36 sec = 66.4 m/s

Vx = V cos theta

V = 66.4 m/s / cos 5.71 = 66.7 m/s

Below is a circuit schematic of sources and resistors (Figure 3). VS = 10V , R1 = 100Ω, R2 = 50Ω, R3 = 25Ω, IS = 2A. Calculate t

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

$V_3\approx 4.28\,\,V$

$I_1=0.0572\,\,amps$

$I_3\approx 0.171\,\,amps$

Explanation:

Notice that this is a circuit with resistors R1 and R2 in parallel, connected to resistor R3 in series. It is what is called a parallel-series combination.

So we first find the equivalent resistance for the two resistors in parallel:

$\frac{1}{Re}= \frac{1}{R1}+\frac{1}{R2}\\\frac{1}{Re}= \frac{1}{100}+\frac{1}{50}\\\frac{1}{Re}= \frac{3}{100}\\Re=\frac{100}{3} \,\,\Omega$

By knowing this, we can estimate the total current through the circuit,:

$Vs=I\,*\,(\frac{100}{3} +25)\\10=I\,*\,\frac{175}{3} \\I=\frac{30}{175} \,amps$

So approximately 0.17 amps

and therefore, we can estimate the voltage drop (V3) in R3 uisng Ohm's law:

$V_3=\frac{30}{175} *\,25=\frac{30}{7} \approx 4.28\,\,V$

So now we know that the potential drop across the parellel resistors must be:

10 V - 4.28 V = 5.72 V

and with this info, we can calculate the current through R1 using Ohm's Law:

$I_1=\frac{V_1}{R_1} =\frac{5.72}{100} =0.0572\,\,amps$

The function of a cell depends primarily on its ?

Schach [20]

<span>Organelles which are very important in giving nutrients. During cellular respiration, the food molecules such as glucose, are oxidized to carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) and trapped in ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) form for further us of cell’s activities. ATP’s are formed at mitochondria – the cell’s powerhouse. This type of organelle takes and breaks nutrients absorbed by the cell and creates energy afterward. The energy from ATP is then used by the body in kinetic activities like running & walking or involuntary activities like breathing, blood circulation, stimulus-responding, etc.</span>

A ray in glass arrives at the glass-water interface at an angle of 48° with the normal. The refracted ray, in water, makes a 72°

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

50.4°

Explanation:

Snell's law states:

n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

where n is the index of refraction and θ is the angle of incidence (relative to the normal).

When θ₁ = 48°:

n sin 48° = 1.33 sin 72°

n = 1.702

When θ₁ = 37°:

1.702 sin 37° = 1.33 sin θ

θ = 50.4°
