A basketball leaves a player's hands at a height of 2.00 m above the floor. The basket is 3.05 m above the floor. The player lik

shutvik [7]

Answer:(10.69, 11.436)

Explanation:

Given

initial height of ball is 2 m

height of basket is 3.05 m

Launching angle $=40^{\circ}$

$x =12\pm 0.27$

y=1.05

equation of trajectory of ball is given by

$y=xtan\theta -\frac{gx^2}{2u^2cos^2\theta }$

for x=12.27

$1.05=12.27\times tan40-\frac{g12.27^2}{2u^2cos^{2}40 }$

u=10.69

for x=11.73

$1.05=11.73\times tan40-\frac{g11.73^2}{2u^2cos^{2}40 }$

u=11.436 m/s

Thus range of speed is (10.69, 11.436)

Fill-in-the-blank test questions measure ________; matching concepts with their definitions measures ________.

Ulleksa [173]

Test questions measure recall; matching concepts with their definitions measures recognition.

<u>Explanation: </u>

According to Psychology our brain remembers everything what we learn but the understanding and remembering the right answer for the right question needs training and understanding ability. So in order to enhance the ability of recalling and recognizing among the students, the concept of test questions and matching with definitions are used in curricular activities.

As the students will be learning different terms, definitions, methods and different subjects, they should be able to distinguish among different definitions as well as they should recall the things they have learnt. So the answers for the test questions will help to recall the topics learnt by the students while the matching concept will help the students to recognize each definition with their terms.

A hose directs a horizontal jet of water, moving with a velocity of 20m/s, on to a vertical wall. The

just olya [345]

Force is defined as the rate of change of momentum.
The initial amount of momentum is $mv$ because water stops when it hit the wall total change of momentum must be $\Delta p=mv$ .
Now let's calculate the force.
$F= \frac{dp}{dt}=\frac{d(mv)}{dt}=\frac{dm}{dt}v$
We need to find $\frac{dm}{dt}$ . This is the amount of water hiting the wall per second.
$\frac{dm}{dt}=\rho Av$
Our final formula would be:
$F=\rho Avv=\rho Av^2$
And now we can calculate the answer:
$F=1000\cdot5\cdot 10^{-4}\cdot(20)^2=200 N$
