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)

Solve the equation 3x^2+8x+5=0
Pachacha [2.7K]
3x^2+8x+5=0\\
3x^2+3x+5x+5=0\\
3x(x+1)+5(x+1)=0\\
(3x+5)(x+1)=0\\
x=-\dfrac{5}{3} \vee x=-1

Interest groups representing businesses and investors are often among the most successful lobbying groups in foreign policy. Why
alisha [4.7K]

The members of these groups make up the majority of voters in many districts thus this  be considered a problem.

<u>Option: D</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Interest groups play a key role in US politics. Such organizations are made up of wealthy and powerful members who often seek to impose some form of leverage in politicians to promote their goals and agendas. Across the years via many campaigns, they have understood how to speak and manipulate elected leaders and apply leverage to get the kind of legislation that is in their favor. Here the majority of voters in several districts are standing due to group members, as we recognize the interest group belongs to a body in which it uses different methods of lobbying to influence others.

Statistical time division multiplexing does not require the capacity of the circuit to be equal to the sum of the combined circu
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

The answer is True

Explanation:

Statistical Multiplexing is considered an example of communication link sharing which makes it comparable to DBA (Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation). Here, communication channels are broken down into data streams to optimize the communication process.

In Statistical Time-division Multiplexing, time slots are allocated to data streams for communication optimization. This method makes sure that no time slot or bandwidth is wasted.

Hence, the sum of combined circuits must not be equal to the capacity of the circuit to work effectively.
