The Asian Silver Carp is an invasive species of fish which has infested a number of American rivers. The disturbance of passing

boats has been known to make these fish leap large distances out of the water. One such fish leaps with an initial velocity at the water's surface of 11.0 m/s at an angle of 34.0° above the horizontal. How high above the water's surface, in meters, does the fish reach?

Answer:

1.93 m

Explanation:

Initial velocity of fish u = 11 m /s

Angle of jump = 34 degree.

Vertical component of its velocity = u sin34 = 11 x.5592 = 6.15 m /s

Considering its motion in vertical direction ,

u = 6.15 m/s

g = - 9.8 m /s

maximum height attained = h

From the formula

v² = u² - 2gh

0 = 6.15x 6.15 - 2 x 9.8 h

h = (6.15 x 6.15 )/ 2 x 9.8

= 1.93 m .

En la Tierra un volcán puede expulsar rocas verticalmente hasta una altura máxima H. A) ¿A qué altura (en términos de H) llegarí
Nonamiya [84]

A) 2.64 H

The maximum height that the expelled rock can reach can be found by using the equation:

v^2-u^2 = 2gd

where

v = 0 is the velocity at the maximum height

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration of gravity

d is the maximum height

Solving for d,

d=\frac{-u^2}{2g}

We see that the maximum heigth is inversely proportional to g. On the Earth,

d=H and g=g_e = -9.81 m/s^2

So we can write:

\frac{H}{H'}=\frac{g_m}{g_e}

where H' is the maximum height reached on Mars, and g_m = -3.71 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity on Mars. Solving for H',

H' = \frac{g_e}{g_m}H = \frac{-9.81}{3.71}H=2.64 H

B) 2.64T

The time after which the rock reaches the maximum height can be found by using

v=u+gt

where

v = 0 is the velocity at the maximum height

u is the initial velocity

Solving for t,

t=\frac{v-u}{g}

The total time of the motion is twice this value, so:

t=2\frac{v-u}{g}

So we see that it is inversely proportional to g.

On the Earth, t = T. So we can write:

\frac{T}{T'}=\frac{g_m}{g_E}

where T' is the total time of the motion on Mars. Solving for T',

T' = \frac{g_e}{g_m}T=\frac{-9.81}{-3.71}T=2.64T
