A playground is on the flat roof of a city school, 6.2m above the street below. The vertical wall of the building is h=7.30m hig

h, forming a 1.1-m-high railing around the playground. A ball has fallen to the street below, and a passerby returns it by launching it at an angle of
θ
=53.0 degrees above the horizontal at a point d=24.0m from the base of the building wall. The ball takes 2.20s to reach a point vertically above the wall.

a) Find the speed at which the ball was launched. (Give your answer to two decimal places to reduce rounding errors in later parts.)
b) Find the vertical distance by which the ball clears the wall.
c) Find the horizontal distance from the wall to the point on the roof where the ball lands.

Answer:

a. 18.13m/s

b. 0.84m

c. 2.4m

Explanation:

a. to find the speed at which the ball was lunched, we use the horizontal component.Since the point distance from the base of the ball is 24m and it takes 2.20 secs to reach the wall,we can say that

t=distance /speed

speed v_{x}=vcos\alpha=24/2.2=10.9m/s\\V=10.9/cos53^{0}\\V=18.13m/s

Hence the speed at which ball was lunched is 18.13m/s

b. from the equation

y=v_{y}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}\\ v_{y}=18.13sin53=14.48m/s\\\\y=(14.48*2.2)-\frac{1}{2}9.8*2.2^{2}\\y=8.14m\\

the vertical distance at which the ball clears the wall is

y=8.14-7.3=0.84m

c. the time it takes the ball to reach the 6.2m vertically

6.2=14.47t-4.8t^{2}\\\\14.47t-4.8t^{2}-6.2=0\\\using\\t=-b±\frac{\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}\\ where \\a=-4.8, b=14.47t, c=6.2\\hence t=2.4secs

the horizontal distance covered at this speed is

y+24=(18.13cos53)2.4\\y=26.186-24\\y=2.12m

A study occasionally the effect of anxiety (low vs. high) and stress (low vs. moderate vs. high) on test.

Everyone experiences anxiety occasionally, but persistent anxiety can reduce your quality of life. Though likely best known for altering behavior, worry can have negative effects on our physical health. Anxiety speeds up our heartbeat and breathing, concentrating blood flow to the parts of our brains that need it. You are getting ready for a challenging situation by having this extremely bodily reaction. Test performance may be impacted by anxiety. According to studies, pupils with low levels of test anxiety perform better on multiple-choice question (MCQ) exams than pupils with high levels of anxiety. Studies have occasionally that female students have greater levels of test anxiety than male students.

Can someone answer these questions
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

1. Following the recoil principle, rockets use combustion (a controlled explosion) to work against earth's gravitational attraction.

2. A force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. ... These two forces are called action and reaction forces and are the subject of Newton's third law of motion. Formally stated, Newton's third law is: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

(via physicsclassroom.com)

3. The combustion throws out material with very high momentum and is, physically speaking, the action. In reaction to that that, the rocket moves away from it (upward when in starts and has the action underneath it)

4. To show the world that commercial manned space missions are safely possible. Some may also like the fact that the US can now do, or rather order, manned flights into space without the help of the russian space agency (Roskosmos).

5. Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley

6. The international space station (ISS)

7. Yes, Stage 1 of the rocket landed on the drone ship. The crew opened the hatch to enter the space station after 21 hours and 39 minutes after the launch from Cape Canaveral.

8. To have private contractors such as SpaceX actively in the field, there are now more interest groups that participate in space travel. And they can interact with other companies as well.

Also, due to Musks dream and efforts of SpaceX, space travel seems to get a lot cheaper.

That might indeed open the way back to the moon and further to the Mars for human space flight.

Governments such as the US planned on such things for decades, but changed plans ever since, and routinely changed leadership and the opinion on what's important.

Now Spaceflights can become less politically motivated and more commercially. That seems to be a more stable way over long periods of time.

(wrote most of it for you myself, even tough I'm not a native English speaker. would really appreciate the brainliest if you appreciate the work)

When does carbon dioxide absorb the most heat energy? uring freezing during deposition during sublimation during condensation?
ololo11 [35]
The answer for the given question above would be the third option. Carbon dioxide absorbs the most heat energy during SUBLIMATION. By definition, sublimation is <span>the transition of a substance from the solid to the gas phase without passing through the intermediate liquid phase. Hope this answers your question.</span>

How to calculate displacement?​
Blizzard [7]

-- Take a straight ruler.

-- Lay it down with the 'zero' mark at the start point.

-- Rotate it around the start point until the end point is also touching the edge of the ruler.

-- From the marks on the ruler, read the straight-line distance from the start point to the end point.

-- Without moving the ruler, observe and write down the DIRECTION from the start point to the end point.

-- The Displacement is the straight-line distance and direction from the start point to the end point.
