Answer:  a) = 1.5 sec.  b= 11.5 m. c=0  d= 1.5 sec.

Explanation:

a) Once thrown into the air , the only influence on the ball is gravity, so, we can conclude that the acceleration acting on the ball is the one due to gravity, i.e., g= 9.8 m/sec².

Applying the definition of acceleration, we can write the following equation:

a= (vf-vo) / t   ⇒ g = vf-vo / t. (1)

Now, when the ball reaches to his maximum height, it stops momentarily, and then starts to fall, so for this height, we can write vf=0.

Replacing  in (1), and solving for t, we get:

t = (0 -vo) / g = -15 m/s/ - 9.8 m/sec² (Taking upward as positive  direction)

a) t= 1.5 sec.

Replacing this value in the kinematic equation for displacement, when vo=15 m/s, we get:

hmax: 15 m/sec . 1.5 sec -1/2. 9.8 m/sec². (1.5 sec) ² (2)

b) hmax= 11.5 m

c) vf= 0 (as explained above)

Finally, in order to know how long the ball takes to return to its initial height, we know that for the falling part of the trajectory, vo=0, so we can write the equation for displacement as follows:

h=-hmax (because it returns to the same starting point)= 1/2 gt²=-11.5 m

Solving for t, we get:

d) t=1.5 sec.

It can be seen that the time used in going up, it is the same for going down, to travel the same distance.

This result is completely general and applies to any free fall problem.

A network administrator has been creating a baseline of network performance. During this process, he realizes that one router is
LiRa [457]

If the network administrator found that one of his routers is slow in performance better to check the traffic packet transactions. If any huge file size is been transferred better to disconnect the router and reconnect.

Possible to kill the network task packet so the network speed can be restored.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Moreover, possible to scan the end-user PC or workstation or desktop whether any malware or spyware is affected, if so better to remove that particular PC or workstation or desktop to disconnected from the router.

Updating the PC or workstation or desktop OS patches to be done at regular intervals.

Define function print_popcorn_time() with parameter bag_ounces. If bag_ounces is less than 3, print "Too small". If greater than
Lynna [10]

Answer:

def print_popcorn_time(bag_ounces):

 if bag_ounces<3:

   print("Too Small")

 elif bag_ounces>10:

   print("Too Large")

 else:

   bag_ounces = bag_ounces*6

   print("%s Seconds\n" % bag_ounces)    

Explanation:

  • Using Python Programming Language
  • The function is defined to accept an int parameter
  • Within the function body, if...elif and else statements are used to print the desired output
  • note the use of the %s placeholder (formated output) and \n for a new line in the final print statement

In mathematics, "quadrant I" of the cartesian plane is the part of the plane where x and y are both positive. Given a variable,
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

struct Cartesian {

double x;

double y;

};

int main() {

// creating a pointer p of type struct Cartesian

struct Cartesian *p = new Cartesian ;

cout << " Enter x: ";

// accessing the structure variable x by arrow "->"

cin >> p->x;

cout << "Enter y: ";

// accessing the structure variable y by arrow "->"

cin >> p->y;

// expression to check whether x and y lie in Quadrant 1

if (p->x > 0 && p->y > 0) {

 cout << "X and Y are in Quadrant 1 ";

}

else

{

 cout << "x And y are not in Quadrant 1";

}

// deleting the struct pointer p

delete p;

return 0;

}

Explanation:

in order to locate memory in heap, keyword "new" is used in C++ so,

struct Cartesian *p = new Cartesian ;

in order to access data members of the structure using pointer we always use an arrow "->". otherwise a dot oprerator is used to access data members.

in order to check whether x and y lie in 1st quadrent, we must use && operator in our if condition. so

if (p->x > 0 && p->y > 0)

&& will return true iff x and y both are +ve.

deleting the struct pointer p is important beacuse we are allocating memory in heap so heap memory should be used a resource and must be release when not needed otherwise it can cause memory leakage problems. so  

delete p;
