Answer:

58.5 m

Explanation:

First of all, we need to find the total time the ball takes to reach the water. This can be done by looking at the vertical motion only.

The initial vertical velocity of the ball is

$u_y = u sin \theta$

where

u = 21.5 m/s is the initial speed

$\theta=33.5^{\circ}$ is the angle

Substituting,

$u_y = (21.5) sin 33.5^{\circ} =11.9 m/s$

The vertical position of the ball at time t is given by

$y = h + u_y t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

where

h = 13.5 m is the initial heigth

$g = -9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity (negative sign because it points downward)

The ball reaches the water when y = 0, so

$0 = h + u_yt +\frac{1}{2}gt^2\\0 = 13.5 +11.9 t - 4.9t^2$

Which gives two solutions: t = 3.27 s and t = -0.84 s. We discard the negative solution since it is meaningless.

The horizontal velocity of the ball is

$u_y = u cos \theta = (21.5) cos 33.5^{\circ} =17.9 m/s$

And since the motion along the horizontal direction is a uniform motion, we can find the horizontal distance travelled by the ball as follows:

$d= u_x t = (17.9)(3.27)=58.5 m$

A voltmeter was used to check the coolant and a reading of 0.2 volt with the engine off was measured. A reading of 0.8 volt was

Julli [10]

Answer:

C. Technician B

Explanation:

Excessive Galvanic activity:

To check for excessive galvanic activity, voltmeter is used to check the coolant. If the voltmeter is giving a reading greater than 0.5 V, there is excessive galvanic activity. Excessive galvanic activity is solved by flushing the coolant fluid from engine and refiling it.

Electrolysis problem:

When the system is not properly ground, the cooling system accepts stray current and the coolant becomes an electrolyte which might eat up the radiator. To test for excessive electrolysis, start the engine and turn on all electrical accessories, if the reading is more than 0.5 V, there is electrolysis problem. Ground wires and connections should be checked at this point to stop stray current.

In our case, the first reading is 0.2 V(engine turned off) which is normal and there is no excessive galvanic activity. This means that Technician A is not correct. The second reading is 0.8 V when the engine and all electrical accessories are turned on. This reading is greater than 0.5 V which means there is an electrolysis problem. This means that Technician B is correct and ground wires and connections should be inspected and repaired.
