A skateboarder shoots off a ramp with a velocity of 5.1 m/s, directed at an angle of 55° above the horizontal. The end of the ra

mp is 1.0 m above the ground. Let the x axis be parallel to the ground, the +y direction be vertically upward, and take as the origin the point on the ground directly below the top of the ramp.
(a) How high above the ground is the highest point that the skateboarder reaches?
(b) When the skateboarder reaches the highest point, how far is this point horizontally from the end of the ramp?

Answer

given,

initial velocity of skateboard = 5.1 m/s

angle above the horizontal = 55°

height of the ramp = 1 m

a) maximum height of projectile

  H = \dfrac{u^2sin^2 \theta}{2g}

  H = \dfrac{5.1^2\times sin^2 55^0}{2\times 9.81}

         H =  0.889 m

the maximum height of the skateboard above the ground

         = 1 + 0.889

         = 1.889 m

b) time to reach the height

   t = \dfrac{u\ sin\theta}{g}

   t = \dfrac{5.1\ sin55^0}{9.8}

          t = 0.426 s

horizontal distance = u cos θ × t

                                = 5.1 × cos 55° × 0.426

horizontal distance = 1.25 m

In a cinema theatre, why do we normally not hear echoes even though the sounds are loud?​
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

An echo is formed as a result of reflection of the original sound which returns to the listener. You might have experienced Echo in an EMPTY ROOM but no echo is produced after the room is occupied. To avoid echo from being produced the echo has to be absorbed.

How do professional bicycle riders reduce friction. Name two ways.<br> Thx
wlad13 [49]
A well maintained bicycle is key.  Oil the chain so that it's less likely to get hung up.  It will have a smoother flow.  Another could be in their clothing.  Notice they usually wear good fitting clothing?  I believe the more from fitting pants help clothing friction.  Another way could be keeping the tires well inflated so that the tires aren't dragging.  Rolling along smoothly on properly inflated tires seems like a must.  Get a few more answers along with mine, so that you have a variety to choose from.
