This seems like a right angle triangle situation
the height is 3ft
the base is 4ft
so we're looking for the hypothenus
so we can use the Pythagoras Theorem
which is
the square of the hypothenus is equal to the sum of the square of the two other sides
hyp^2 is equal to opp^2+ adj^2
hyp^2 equals to 3^2 + 4^2
9+16
25
hyp^2 equals to 25
\sqrt{25}
equals to 5
the ramp has to be 5ft long

anastassius [24]
Equations of the vertical launch:

Vf = Vo - gt

y = yo + Vo*t - gt^2 / 2

Here yo = 35.0m
Vo is unknown
y final = 0
t = 4.00 s
and I will approximate g to 10m/s^2

=> 0 = 35.0 + Vo * 4 - 5 * (4.00)^2 => Vo = [-35 + 5*16] / 4 = - 45 / 4 = -11.25 m/s

The negative sign is due to the fact that the initial velocity is upwards and we assumed that the direction downwards was positive when used g = 10m/s^2.

Answer: 11.25 m/s

A 3.00 kg mass is traveling at an initial speed of 25.0 m/s. What is the
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force required to bring the mass to rest is 15 N.

Explanation:

Given;

mass, m = 3 .00 kg

initial speed of the mass, u = 25 m/s

distance traveled by the mass, d = 62.5 m

The acceleration of the mass is given as;

v² = u² + 2ad

at the maximum distance of 62.5 m, the final velocity of the mass = 0

0 = u² + 2ad

-2ad = u²

-a = u²/2d

-a = (25)² / (2 x 62.5)

-a = 5

a = -5 m/s²

the magnitude of the acceleration = 5 m/s²

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

F = ma

F = 3 x 5

F = 15 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the force required to bring the mass to rest is 15 N.

Answer:

Carbs Provide Your Body With Energy

Proteins help your body build new cells, repair old cells, create hormones and enzymes, and keep your immune system healthy

Calcium is a mineral that people need to build and maintain strong bones and teeth. It is also very important for other physical functions, such as muscle control and blood circulation.

Stored body fat is called adipose tissue. Stored fat not only provides an energy reserve, but also cushions and protects internal organs. In addition, stored fat insulates the body and helps prevent heat loss in cold weather
