Lukalu is rappelling off a cliff. The parametric equations that describe her horizontal and vertical position as a function of t

ime are x ( t ) = 8 t and y ( t ) = − 16 t 2 + 100 and . How long does it take her to reach the ground? How far away from the cliff is she when she lands?

Answer:

2.5 s, 5 m

Explanation:

The equations for the horizontal and vertical position of Lukalu are:

x(t) = 8t\\y(t) = -16t^2 + 100

we can find the time it takes her to reach the ground by requiring that the vertical position becomes zero:

y(t) = 0

So we find:

0=-16t^2 +100\\16t^2 = 100\\t=\sqrt{\frac{100}{16}}=2.5 s

The horizontal distance of Lukalu instead will be given by the equation for the horizontal position, substituting t = 2.5 s:

x=8t = 8 \cdot 2.5 s =5 m

When the Apollo 11 lunar module Eagle lands on the moon it comes to a stop 10m above the surface of the moon. The last 10m it fr
Scrat [10]

Answer:

i) 3.514 s, ii) 5.692 m/s

Explanation:

i) We can use Newton's second law of motion to find out how long does it take for the Eagle to touch down.

as the equation says for free-falling

h = ut +0.5gt^2

Here, h = 10 m, g = acceleration due to gravity = 1.62 m/s^2( on moon surface)

initial velocity u = 0

10 = 0.5×1.62t^2

t = 3.514 seconds

Therefore, it takes t = 3.514 seconds for the Eagle to touch down.

ii) use Newton's 1st equation of motion to calculate the velocity of the lunar module when it hits the surface of the moon

v = u + gt

v = 0+ 1.62×3.514

v= 5.692 m/s

I need help me with my question

The tilt of the moon's axis does not allow for monthly alignment, so the lunar and solar eclipse do not happen every month.

<h3>How do the lunar and solar eclipse occur?</h3>
  • For the occurrence of lunar and solar eclipse, the sun, moon and the earth must remain in a plan and along a straight line.
  • When the earth appears in between the sun and the moon, lunar eclipse occurs.
  • When the moon appears in between the sun and the earth, solar eclipse occurs.
  • The moon and earth are rotating not only around the sun, but also around the black hole of Milky way galaxy.
  • So they are not present in a plan as well as in a straight line in every full moon and new moon time.

Thus, we can conclude that the option D is correct.

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

The value of the angle theta = 135degree, which is option c.

Explanation :

These are the options given in the question

a) 45 degrees

b)120 degrees

c)135 degrees

d)150 degrees

e) it is impossible to deliver a negative power.

The concept of work done on an object is applied here.

work = Fd

F = ma

work = mad

Work is a form of energy transferred by an object after the application of a force that act on the object. A step by step explanation is as attached below.
