The first part of the text is missing, you can find on google:

"A ball is thrown horizontally from the roof of a building 45 m. If it strikes the ground 56 m away, find the following values."

Let's now solve the different parts.

(a) 3.03 s

The time of flight can be found by analyzing the vertical motion only. The vertical displacement at time t is given by

y(t) = h -\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

h = 45 m is the initial height

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

When y=0, the ball reaches the ground, so the time taken for this to happen can be found by substituting y=0 and solving for the time:

0=h-\frac{1}{2}gt^2\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(45)}{9.8}}=3.03 s

(b) 18.5 m/s

For this part, we need to analyze the horizontal motion only, which is a uniform motion at constant speed.

The horizontal position is given by

x=v_x t

where

v_x is the horizontal speed, which is constant

t is the time

At t = 3.03 s (time of flight), we know that the horizontal position is x = 56 m. By substituting these numbers and solving for vx, we find the horizontal speed:

v_x = \frac{x}{t}=\frac{56}{3.03}=18.5 m/s

The ball was thrown horizontally: this means that its initial vertical speed was zero, so 18.5 m/s was also its initial overall speed.

(c) 35.0 m/s at 58.1 degrees below the horizontal

At the impact, we know that the horizontal speed is still the same:

v_x = 18.5 m/s

we need to find the vertical velocity. This can be done by using the equation

v_y = u_y -gt

where

u_y =0 is the initial vertical velocity

g is the acceleration of gravity

t is the time

Substituting t = 3.03 s, we find the vertical velocity at the time of impact:

v_y = -(9.8)(3.03)=-29.7 m/s

So the magnitude of the velocity at the impact (so, the speed at the impact) is

v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}=\sqrt{18.5^2+(-29.7)^2}=35.0 m/s

The angle instead can be found as:

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{v_y}{v_x})=tan^{-1}(\frac{-29.7}{18.5})=-58.1^{\circ}

so, 58.1 degrees below the horizontal.

A tennis player swings and hits the ball away. How does the force of the tennis racket affect the motion of the ball
defon

The force of the racket affects the ball's motion because it changes the momentum of the ball.

<h3>Impulse received by the ball</h3>

The impulse received by the ball through the racket affects the motion because it changes the momentum of the ball.

The ball which is initially at rest, will gain momentum after been hit with the racket.

J = ΔP = Ft

where;

  • J is the impulse received by the ball
  • ΔP is change in momentum of the ball
  • F is the applied force
  • t is the time of action

Thus, the force of the racket affects the ball's motion because it changes the momentum of the ball.

The noise level coming from a pig pen with
sweet [91]

Answer:

The decibel of the remaining pigs is 51.5 dB.

Explanation:

Decibel (dB) is a unit of measure of the intensity of a given sound.

Number of pigs = 199, noise level = 74.3 dB.

Given that the intensity (I) of the sound from the pen is proportional to the number of pigs (N), thus:

                       I    \alpha  N

                       I = kN

where k is the constant of proportionality.

⇒                    k = \frac{I}{N}

                         = \frac{74.3}{199}

                      k = 0.3734

When 61 numbers of pigs were removed, the number of remaining pigs (N) squealing at their original level is 138.

Thus, the becibel level (I) of the remaining pigs can be determined by:

                  I = kN

                    = 0.3734 × 138

                   = 51.53 dB

The becibel level (I) of the remaining pigs is 51.53 dB.

A car speeds up from 13 m/s to 23 m/s in 30 seconds. What is the
Lapatulllka [165]

acceleration of the car = 0.33 m/s²

Explanation:

To calculate the acceleration of the car we use the following formula:

acceleration = change in velocity / time

change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity

change in velocity = 23 m/s - 13 m/s = 10 m/s

change in velocity = 10 m/s

acceleration = 10 m/s / 30 s

acceleration = 0.33 m/s²

Consider the speed of light in another universe to be only 100 m/s. Two cars are traveling along a highway in opposite direction
olganol [36]

Answer:

-62.45m/s and +62.45m/s

Explanation:

The formula for relativistic speed

This is the speed of A with respect to B

V_{AB}=\frac{V_{A}-V_{B}}{1-\frac{V_{A}V_{B}}{C^2} }

where

V_{A} will be the velocity of person 1: 39m/s

V_{B} will be the velocity of person 2: -31m/s (negative because is travelling in opposite direction)

and C the velocity of light: 100m/s

The velocity of person 1 measured by person 2 is:

V_{AB}=\frac{39m/s-(-31m/s)}{1-\frac{(39m/s)(-31m/s)}{(100m/s)^2}}=62.45m/s

The velocity of person 2 measured by person 1 is:

V_{BA}=\frac{V_{B}-V_{A}}{1-\frac{V_{B}V_{A}}{C^2} }

V_{BA}=\frac{-31m/s-39m/s}{1-\frac{(-31m/s)(39m/s)}{(100)^2} }=-62.45m/s
