A very strong, but inept, shot putter puts the shot straight up vertically with an initial velocity of 11.1 m/s. How long does h

e have to get out of the way if the shot was released at a height of 2.27 m, and he is 1.96 m tall?

We need to use the kinematic equation
S=ut+(1/2)at^2
where
S=displacement (+=up, in metres)
u=initial velocity (m/s)
t=time (seconds)
a=acceleration (+=up, in m/s^2)

Substitute values
S=displacement = 1.96-2.27 = -0.31 m (so that shot does not hit his head)
u=11.1
a=-9.81 (acceleration due to gravity)

-0.31=11.1t+(1/2)(-9.81)t^2
Rearrange and solve for t
-4.905t^2+11.1t-0.31=0
t=-0.02756 or t=2.291 seconds 
Reject the negative root to give
t=2.29 seconds (to 3 significant figures)

Two models of the same compound are shown. In what way is Model A better than Model B?
astra-53 [7]

The correct answer is Model A shows the three-dimensional shape of the molecule, but Model B does not.

Explanation:

Model A and B show the structure of a molecule. In the case of model A, the structure is represented through the use of three-dimensional shapes, while in model B the structure is represented using the letters of each element and showing how each element is connected to others.

In this context, one feature that makes model A better is that this represents the molecule using a 3D model, which is better to understand how the molecule looks like and what is its structure. Moreover, both models are alike because they show the number of atoms of each element, although model A does not show the types of elements.

Air conditioners sold in the United States are given a seasonal energy-efficiency ratio (SEER) rating that consumers can use to
amid [387]

Answer:

112.58

Explanation:

The Coefficient of Performance of any system is denoted by COP=Q/W, where Q is the useful heat supplied or removed and W is the work required by the system. According to the first law of thermoddynamics Qh= Qc + W, where Qh is the heat transfered to the hot reservoir and Qc is the heat collected from the cold reservoir. Substituting the values for W and apllying the limitation for maximum theoretical efficiency we end up with the eqution shown below.

The Coefficient of Performance of air conditioner or COP is denoted by

COP(cool) = Tc/(Th- Tc)

where Tc: the lowest temperature

           Th: the highest temperature

converting the values to Kelvin and adding them in the above equation

COP(cool) = (25+273)/((34+273)-(25+273))

                 = 298/(307-298)

                 = 298/9 = 33.11

From the question, it is stated that COP=SEER/3.4

hence, SEER= COP * 3.4

SEER= 33.11 * 3.4 = 112.58

Two particles, each with charge 55.3 nC, are located on the y axis at y 24.9 cm and y -24.9cm (a) Find the vector electric field
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Ex = kq 2x / ∛ (x² + y²)²  and  Ex = 2008 N / C

Explanation:

a)   The electric field is a vector quantity, so we must find the field for each particle and add them vectorially, as the whole process is on the X axis,

The equation for the electric field produced by a point charge is

         E = k q / r²

With r the distance between the point charge and the positive test charge

We look for each electric field

Particle 1.  Located at y = 24.9 m, let's use Pythagoras' theorem to find the distance

          r² = x² + y²

          E1 = k q / (x² + y²)

Particle 2.   located at x = -24.9 m

          r² = x² + y²

          E2 = k q / (x² + y²)

We can see that the two fields are equal since the particles have the same charge and coordinate it and that is squared.

In the attached one we can see that the Y components of the electric fields created by each particle are always the same and it is canceled, so we only have to add the X components of the electric fields. Let's use Pythagoras' theorem to find

Let's measure the angle from axis X

     cos θ = CA / H = x / (x2 + y2) ½

     E1x = E1 cos θ

      E2x = = E1 cos θ

The resulting field

      Ey = 0

      Ex = E1x + E2x 2 E1x

      Ex = 2 k q / (x² + y²) cos θ) = 2 k q / (x² + y²) x / √(x² + x²)

      Ex = kq 2x / ∛ (x² + y²)²

b) For this part we substitute the numerical values

      Ex = 8.99 10⁹ 55.3 10⁻⁹ x / (x² + 0.249 2) ³/₂

      Ex = 497.15   x / (x² + 0.062)  ³/₂  

Point where can the value of the electric field x = 38.1 cm = 0.381 m

       Ex = 497.15 0.381 / (0.381² + 0.062)  ³/₂  

       Ex = 497.15 0.381 / (0.1452 + 0.062) 3/2 = 189.41 / 0.2072 3/2

       Ex= 189.41 /0.0943

       Ex = 2008 N / C

c)  E = 1.00 kN / C = 1000 N / C

To solve this part we must find x in the equation

       Ex = 497.15 x / (x² + 0.062)  ³/₂  

Let's use some arithmetic

       Ex / 497.15 = x / (x² + 0.062)  ³/₂  

       [Ex / 497.15] ²/₃ = [x / (x² + 0.062) 3/2] ²/₃

       ∛[Ex / 497.15]² = (∛x²) / (x² + 0.062)                 (1)

The roots of this equation are the solution to the problem,

     

For Ex = 1.00 kN / C = 1000 N / C

 

      [Ex / 497.15] 2/3 = 1000 / 497.15) 2/3 = 1,312

       1.312 = (∛x² ) / (x² + 0.062)

       1.312 (x² + 0.062) = ∛x²

       1.312 X² - ∛x² + 1.312 0.062 = 0

       1.312 X² - ∛x² + 0.0813 = 0
