Erase all the trajectories, and fire the pumpkin vertically again with an initial speed of 14 m/s. As you found earlier, the max
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

\theta=39.49^{\circ}

Explanation:

Maximum height of the pumpkin, H_{max}=9.99\ m

Initial speed, v = 22 m/s

We need to find the angle with which the pumpkin is fired. the maximum height of the projectile is given by :

H_{max}=\dfrac{v^2\ sin^2\theta}{2g}

On rearranging the above equation, to find the angle as :

\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{\sqrt{2gH_{max}}}{v})

\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 9.99}}{22})

\theta=39.49^{\circ}

So, the angle with which the pumpkin is fired is 39.49 degrees. Hence, this is the required solution.

Outside our solar system the closest star to earth is Proxima century life from the start takes 2200000 minutes to reach earth.
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

2200000 = 2.2E6 min for light from Proxima to reach earth

8.3 min from light sun to reach earth

2.2E6/8.3 = 2.56E5   times for light from Proxima

Proxima is about 256,000 times farther away than the sun

Since the sun is about 93,000,000 = 9.3E7 miles from earth

Proxima is then 9.3E7 * 2.56E5 = 2.4E13 miles away

Note - the speed of light is

3.00E8 m/s * 60 s/min / 1000 m/km = 1.8E7 km/min as given

If the pendulum took longer to complete one oscillation, how would the graph change?
pickupchik [31]

We don't know what kind of graph it is.

For example, it might be a graph of the pendulum's distance from center,

angle from center, speed, acceleration, total distance swung since it was

started, mass, weight, temperature, etc.


If the graph shows the pendulum's distance from center, angle from center,

speed, or acceleration, then the graph will look like a wave, with the period

of the wave being the period of the pendulum's oscillation. If the pendulum

took longer to complete one oscillation, that means its PERIOD increased,

and the distance between the peaks of the graph would be longer.


If it was a graph of total distance the pendulum swung since it was started,

the graph wouldn't look like a wave, just a steadily rising wiggle line. If the

pendulum took longer to complete one oscillation, the wiggles in the line

would be farther apart, and the average slope of any large section of the

line would be less.


If it was a graph of the pendulum's mass, weight, temperature, cost, etc.,

then the graph would be a horizontal line, and nothing that might change

the period of oscillation would have any effect on the graph.
