The drawing shows a skateboarder moving at 4.8 m/s along a horizontal section of a track that is slanted upward by 48° above the

horizontal at its end, which is 0.50 m above the ground. when she leaves the track, she follows the characteristic path of projectile motion. ignoring friction and air resistance, find the maximum height h to which she rises above the end of the track.

Let M = mass of the skier, 
v2 = his speed at the end of the track. 
By conservation of energy, 
1/2 Mv^2 = 1/2 Mv2^2 + Mgh 
Dividing by M, 
1/2 v^2 = 1/2 v2^2 + gh
 Multiplying by 2, 
v^2 = v2^2 + 2gh 
Or v2^2 = v^2 - 2gh 
Or v2^2 = 4.8^2 - 2 * 9.8 * 0.46 
Or v2^2 = 23.04 - 9.016 
Or v2^2 = 14.024 m^2/s^2-----------------------------(1) 
In projectile motion, launch speed = v2 
and launch angle theta = 48 deg 
Maximum height 
H = v2^2 sin^2(theta)/(2g) 
Substituting theta = 48 deg and value of v2^2 from (1),
 H = 14.024 * sin^2(48 deg)/(2 * 9.8) 
Or H = 14.024 * 0.7431^2/19.6 
Or H = 14.024 * 0.5523/19.6 
Or H = 0.395 m = 0.4 m after rounding off 
Ans: 0.4 m

The answer in this question is 0.4 m

Why is it safe to watch an eclipse of the Moon but not an eclipse of the Sun
gavmur [86]
A solar eclipse occurs when the moon crosses in front of the Sun, blocking some or all of its rays. A lunar eclipse happens when the moon is directly behind the earth, blocking the moon from receiving light. The only light comes from the light on earth's reflected shadow.

You can look at a lunar eclipse because there is very little light or none at all. You can't look at a solar eclipse because you are looking directly at the sun unless it is complete. Before totality, only some of the Sun is blocked, causing your pupils dilate to let in more light. Since they do this, more of the Sun's rays can be let in to the eye, which effectively allows your eyes to burn. 

Some doctors and eye care specialists say that after someone complains of blindness after looking at a solar eclipse unaided, they can see what the Sun and moon looked like at the time that they looked at it, as it is burned onto their retinas.

While traveling along a highway a driver slows from 34 m/s to 17 m/s in 6 seconds. What is the automobiles acceleration?​
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

-2.83 m/s²

Explanation:

  • Initial velocity (u) = 34 m/s
  • Final velocity (v) = 17 m/s
  • Time taken (t) = 6 seconds

❖ Acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity with time.

→ a = (v - u)/t

  • v denotes final velocity
  • a denotes acceleration
  • u denotes initial velocity
  • t denotes time

→ a = (17 - 34)/6 m/s²

→ a = -17/6 m/s²

<h3>→ Acceleration = -2.83 m/s²</h3>

(Minus sign implies that the velocity is decreasing.)
