Answer:
The velocity of the ball before it hits the ground is 381.2 m/s
Explanation:
Given;
time taken to reach the ground, t = 38.9 s
The height of fall is given by;
h = ¹/₂gt²
h = ¹/₂(9.8)(38.9)²
h = 7414.73 m
The velocity of the ball before it hits the ground is given as;
v² = u² + 2gh
where;
u is the initial velocity of the on the root = 0
v is the final velocity of the ball before it hits the ground
v² = 2gh
v = √2gh
v = √(2 x 9.8 x 7414.73 )
v = 381.2 m/s
Therefore, the velocity of the ball before it hits the ground is 381.2 m/s
Hydraulic conductivity (K) is a property of soil<span> that describes the ease with which water can move through </span>pore<span> spaces. It depends on the permeability of the material (</span>pores, compaction) and on the degree of saturation. Saturated hydraulic conductivity, Ksat<span>, describes water movement through saturated media.</span><span />
Answer:
i) 0.9504
ii) 0.0452
Explanation:
Given data: reliability of hydraulic brakes= 0.96
reliability of mechanical brakes = 0.99
So the probability of stopping the truck = 0.96×0.99= 0.9504
At low speed
case: A works and B does not
= 0.96×(1-0.99) = 0.0096
case2 : B works and A does not
= 0.99×(1-0.96) = 0.0396
Therefore, probality of stopping = 0.0096+0.0396 = 0.0492
