Answer:

+12 m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of an object moving of accelerated motion is given by:

$v(t) = v_0 +at$

where

v0 is the initial velocity of the object

a is the acceleration

t is the time

In this problem, the rocket starts from rest, so $v_0 =0$ . The acceleration is $a=4 m/s^2$ , so the velocity after $t=3 s$ will be

$v(3 s)=0 +(4 m/s^2)(3 s)=+12 m/s$

A bowling ball is launched from the top of a building at an angle of 35° above the horizontal with an initial speed of 15 m/s. T

Mamont248 [21]

Let $y_0$ be the height of the building and thus the initial height of the ball. The ball's altitude at time $t$ is given by

$y=y_0+\left(15\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin35^\circ\,t-\dfrac g2t^2$

where $g=9.80\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}$ is the acceleration due to gravity.

The ball reaches the ground when $y=0$ after $t=2.9\,\mathrm s$ . Solve for $y_0$ :

$0=y_0+\left(15\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin35^\circ(2.9\,\mathrm s)-\dfrac12\left(9.80\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(2.9\,\mathrm s)^2$

$\implies y_0\approx16.258\,\mathrm m$

so the building is about 16 m tall (keeping track of significant digits).

The robot HooRU is lost in space, floating around aimlessly, and radiates heat into the depths of the cosmos at the rate of 13.1

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The temperature is $T = 168.44 \ K$

Explanation:

From the question ewe are told that

The rate of heat transferred is $P = 13.1 \ W$

The surface area is $A = 1.55 \ m^2$

The emissivity of its surface is $e = 0.287$

Generally, the rate of heat transfer is mathematically represented as

$H = A e \sigma T^{4}$

=> $T = \sqrt[4]{\frac{P}{e* \sigma } }$

where $\sigma$ is the Boltzmann constant with value $\sigma = 5.67*10^{-8} \ W\cdot m^{-2} \cdot K^{-4}.$

substituting value

$T = \sqrt[4]{\frac{13.1}{ 0.287* 5.67 *10^{-8} } }$

$T = 168.44 \ K$
