1) x= v_{0x} t = 23.4 t\\y=y_0 + v_{0y}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^2 = 12+21.8t -4.9t^2

The initial data of the projectile are:

y_0 = 12 m is the initial height

v_0 = 32 m/s is the initial speed of the projectile, so its components along the x- and y- directions are

v_{0x} = v_0 cos \theta = (32 m/s)(cos 43^{\circ})=23.4 m/s\\v_{0y} = v_0 sin \theta = (32 m/s)(sin 43^{\circ})=21.8 m/s

The motion of the cannonball along the x-direction is a uniform motion with constant speed, while on the y-direction it is an uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 downward. So, the two equations of motion of the projectile along the two directions are:

x= v_{0x} t = 23.4 t\\y=y_0 + v_{0y}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^2 = 12+21.8t -4.9t^2

2) 4.94 s

To determine how long the cannon ball was in the air, we need to find the time t at which the cannonball hits the ground, so the time t at which y(t)=0:

0=12+21.8t-4.9 t^2

Solving the equation with the formula, we have:

t_{1,2}=\frac{-21.8\pm \sqrt{(21.8)^2-4(-4.9)(12)}}{2(-4.9)}

which has two solutions:

t = -0.50 s

t = 4.94 s

Discarding the first solution which is a negative time so it has no physical meaning, the correct solution is

t = 4.94 s

3) 115.6 m

To determine how far the cannonball travelled, we need to find the value of the horizontal position x(t) when the ball hits the ground, at t=4.94 s. Substituting this value into the equation of motion along x, we find:

x=v_{0x}t=(23.4 m/s)(4.94 s)=115.6 m

4) 2.22 s

The cannonball reaches its maximum height when the vertical velocity becaomes zero.

The vertical velocity at time t is given by

v_y(t)= v_{0y} -gt

where

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

Substutiting v_y(t)=0 and solving for t, we find

t=\frac{v_{0y}}{g}=\frac{21.8 m/s}{9.8 m/s^2}=2.22 s

5) 36.2 m

The maximum height reached by the cannon is equal to the vertical postion y(t) when the vertical velocity is zero, so when t=2.22 s. Substituting this value into the equation of the vertical motion, we find:

y(t)=y_0 + v_{0y}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^2=12+(21.8)(2.22)-(4.9)(2.22)^2=36.2 m

un movil que parte del reposo alcanza una velocidad de 75 m/s en 13 segundos ¿cual su aceleracion y el espacio que recorrio en l
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Acceleration = 5.77 m/s²

Distance cover in 13 seconds = 487.56 meter

Explanation:

Given:

Final velocity of mobile device = 75 m/s

initial velocity of mobile device = 0 m/s

Time taken = 13 seconds

Find:

Acceleration

Distance cover in 13 seconds

Computation:

v = u + at

75 = 0 + (a)(13)

13a = 75

a = 5.77

Acceleration = 5.77 m/s²

s = ut + (1/2)(a)(t²)

s = (0)(t) + (1/2)(5.77)(13²)

Distance cover in 13 seconds = 487.56 meter

A hill is 132 m long and makes an angle of 12.0 degrees with the horizontal. As a 54 kg jogger runs up the hill, how much work d
TEA [102]

Answer:

14523.55J

Explanation:

The work done by the jogger against gravity is given by the following equation;

W=mgh.................(1)

where m is the mass, g is acceleration due to gravity taken as 9.8m/s^2 and h is the height of the hill.

Since the length of the hill is 132m and it is inclined at 12 degrees to the horizontal, the height is thus given as follows;

h=132sin12^o\\h=27.44m

Substituting this into equation (1) with all other necessary parameters, we obtain the following;

W=54*9.8*27.44\\W=14523.55J

Blood plasma volume for adults is about 3.1 liters. It has a density of 1.020 gml. How many pounds of blood plasma are in your b
kari74 [83]

Answer:

mass is 6.97 pounds

Explanation:

given data

volume = 3.1 liters

density = 1.020 g/ml = 1.02 kg/l

to find out

How many pounds of blood plasma

solution

we know mass formula from density that is

density = mass / volume

so

mass = density × volume    ...............1

so put all value to get mass

mass = 1.02 × 3.1

mass = 3.162 kg

mass = 3.162  × 2.205 pounds

so mass is 6.97 pounds
