A daring stunt woman sitting on a tree limb wishes to drop vertically onto a horse gallop ing under the tree. The constant speed

of the horse is 12.8 m/s, and the woman is initially 2.23 m above the level of the saddle. How long is she in the air? The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2 Answer in units of s What must be the horizontal distance between the saddle and limb when the woman makes her move? Answer in units of m.

Answer:

0.67 seconds

8.576 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 2.23=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{2.23\times 2}{9.8}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.67\ s

Time taken by the stunt woman to drop to the saddle is 0.67 seconds which is the time she will stay in the air.

Speed of the horse = 12.8 m/s

Distance = Speed × Time

⇒Distance = 12.8×0.67

⇒Distance = 8.576 m

Hence, the distance between the horse and stunt woman should be 8.576 m when she jumps.

A truck initially traveling at a speed of 22 meters per second increases speed at a constant rate of 2.4 meters per second^2 for
Usimov [2.4K]
Thank you for posting your question here. The total distance traveled by the truck during the 3.2 seconds interval is 83 m. Below is the solution:

d = vit + 1/2 at^2
d = (22m/ s) (3.2s) + 1/2 (2.4m/ s^2) (3.2s)^2
d = 83 m 
Hope the answer helps.

Convert the number from scientific into standard notation: 5.9 x 10-2
guapka [62]
Move the decimal point to:
Left : (if the exponent of ten is a negative number -) ... OUR CASE HERE (-2)
or to
Right : (if the exponent is positive +).

You should move the point as many times as the exponent indicates.
Do not write the power of ten anymore.

So, standard form is:
Two points to the left {Exponent of Ten is Negative (-2)}
0.059 ... (without the 10)

A fly enters through an open window and zooms around the room. In a Cartesian coordinate system with three axes along three edge
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Explanation:

Displacement vector along x axes = 4.5 - 2.5 = 2 m

Displacement vector along y axes = 3 - 2 = 1 m

Displacement vector along z axis = 3.5- 4 = - 0.5 m

Displacement vector = 2 i + j - 0.5 k m

Describe the importance of the hubble telescope in a short paragraph. QUICK PLEASE HELP ASAP
gulaghasi [49]
The Hubble Telescope or Hubble Space Telescope (HST) is designed to take images found within the solar system. It is a low-orbit kind of telescope that helped a lot of scientists in proving some theories in astrophysics and the dimensions of the Universe. It was launched in 1990s and since then has been in space taking up good quality images that would help scientists learn more from space explorations.
