Problem 3: A basketball player is running at 4.75 m/s toward the basket when he jumps into the air to dunk the ball. He maintain

s the same horizontal velocity while in the air. Part (a) What vertical velocity does he need to rise 0.750 m above the floor in m/s? Numeric : A numeric value is expected and not an expression Voy = Part (b) At what horizontal distance from the basket, in meters, must he start his jump to reach his maximum height at the same time as he reaches the basket in m?

Answer

given,

speed of the basketball player, v_x = 4.75 m/s

height of the jump = ?

a) initial vertical velocity = 0 m/s

   final vertical velocity = ?

       height, h = 0.75 m

 using equation of motion

   v² = u² +  2 g h

   v² = 0² +  2 x 9.8 x  0.75

   v² = 14.7

   v = 3.83 m/s

b) let horizontal distance= x m

 maximum height at time , t s

 time taken to reach maximum height

    t = \dfrac{3.83}{9.8}

         t = 0.39 s

    horizontal distance

             = v_x  × t

             = 4.75 × 0.39

             = 1.85 m

horizontal distance is equal to 1.85 m

On a spring scale that measures force, a reading shows the force of an object to be about half way between 0 N and 1 N. 0. 49 Newton is the most accurate measurement for the force. If we cluster the number values of 0 N to 1 N It would be 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0 N. These numbers indicate the micro intervals of 0-1. It cannot be the other given because the other values are either higher or lower which exceeds the 0-1 scale. Observe.

Describe the formation of the land, the atmosphere, and the oceans of earth
Firlakuza [10]
Land: Tectonic plate movement under the Earth can create landforms by pushing up mountains and hills. Erosion by water and wind can wear down land and create landforms like valleys and canyons. ... Landforms can exist under water in the form of mountain ranges and basins under the sea.

Atmosphere: (4.6 billion years ago)
As Earth cooled, an atmosphere formed mainly from gases spewed from volcanoes. It included hydrogen sulfide, methane, and ten to 200 times as much carbon dioxide as today's atmosphere. After about half a billion years, Earth's surface cooled and solidified enough for water to collect on it.

Ocean: After the Earth's surface had cooled to a temperature below the boiling point of water, rain began to fall—and continued to fall for centuries. As the water drained into the great hollows in the Earth's surface, the primeval ocean came into existence. The forces of gravity prevented the water from leaving the planet.

alexdok [17]

Answer:

t=67.7s

Explanation:

From this question we know that:

Vo = 6m/s

a = 1.8 m/s2

D = 1500m

And we also know that:

X=V_{o}*t + \frac{a*t^{2}}{2}   Replacing the known values:

1500=6t+0.9*t^{2}    Solving for t we get 2 possible answers:

t1 = -44.3s   and t2 = 67.7s    Since negative time represents an instant before the beginning of the movement, t1 is discarded. So, the final answer is:

t = 67.7s
