Because of the position on the equator, the change in rotation of the Earth on its axis throughout the year doesn't affect it much. Unlike the poles, Quito is almost constantly in direct view of the sun. So, because of lack of change in rotation, the daylight hours are hardly varied as Quito is almost constantly in more or less the same spot in relation to the sun.
Answer: 5.31 meters
Explanation: Use conservation of energy. Initial energy equals final energy. Initially, there is only kinetic energy (because height = 0 initially). At the end, kinetic energy equals 0 because at max height, there is max potential energy and the ball stops moving for a split second.
mgh = .5mv^2
Masses cancel out
gh = .5v^2
(9.8)(h) = .5(10.2^2)
Solve for h. h = 5.31 meters
Answer:
786.6 N
Explanation:
mass of car, m = 912 kg
initial velocity of car, u = 31.5 m/s
final velocity of car, v = 24.6 m/ s
time, t = 8 s
Let a be the acceleration of the car
Use first equation of motion
v = u + a t
24.6 = 31.5 + a x 8
a = - 0.8625 m/s^2
Force, F = mass x acceleration
F = 912 x 0.8625
F = 786.6 N
Thus, the force on the car is 786.6 N.
