The rifles in the figures are being fired horizontally (straight outward, off platforms). The bullets fired from the rifles are

all identical, but the rifles propel the bullets are different speeds. The speed of each bullet and the height of each platform are given. All the bullets miss their targets and hit the ground. Rank the time it takes the bullets to hit the ground. Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

  t = √ 2y₀ / g

if they are at the same height, all the bullets must carry the target, since when advancing the height decreases

Explanation:

In this exercise we see that the bullets are fired horizontally so the time it takes to reach the ground is

          y = y₀ + v_{oy}  t - ½ g t²

as they are fired horizontally their vertical velocity is zero and the height upon reaching the ground is zero y = 0

         0 = y₀ - ½ g t²

         t = √ 2y₀ / g

from here we can see that the time it takes for the bullets to hit the floor depends only on the initial height

Therefore, all the bullets that come out of the same height reach the ground at the same time, but at a different distance, so if one misses the target, everything must fail since reaching the target is below the initial height.

The horizontal distance traveled by the bullets is

        x = v₀ₓ t

        v₀ₓ =v₀

        x = v₀ √2y₀/g

For a more precise calculation we should know the height of the target and the bullets, but if they are at the same height, all the bullets must carry the target, since when advancing the height decreases

Un vehiculo se desplaza con movimiento rectilio uniforme. Sabiendo que recorre 90 km en 3 horas. Averiguo la velocidad en m/s.
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Velocidad = 500 m/s

Explanation:

Dados los siguientes datos;

Distancia = 90 km

Tiempo = 3 horas

Conversión;

Por distancia:

1 kilómetro = 1000 metros

90 kilómetros = 90 * 1000 = 90,000 metros

Para el tiempo:

1 hora = 60 segundos

3 horas = 60 * 3 = 180 segundos

Para encontrar la velocidad en m/s;

Matemáticamente, la velocidad viene dada por la ecuación;

Velocidad = \frac {distancia} {tiempo}

Sustituyendo en la fórmula, tenemos;

Velocidad = 90000/180

Velocidad = 500 m/s

The children at the local park think the slide is too slow. There is too much fiction. What could you do to decrease the amount
igor_vitrenko [27]
In order to decrease the friction on the slide,
we could try some of these:

-- Install a drippy pipe across the top that keeps continuously
dripping olive oil on the top end of the slide.  The oil oozes
down the slide and keeps the whole slide greased.

-- Hire a man to spread a coat of butter on the whole slide,
every 30 minutes.

-- Spray the whole slide with soapy sudsy water, every 30 minutes.

-- Drill a million holes in the slide,and pump high-pressure air
through the holes.  Make the slide like an air hockey table.

-- Keep the slide very cold, and keep spraying it with a fine mist
of water.  The water freezes, and a thin coating of ice stays on
the slide.

-- Ask a local auto mechanic to please, every time he changes
the oil in somebody's car, to keep all the old oil, and once a week
to bring his old oil to the park, to spread on the slide.  If it keeps
the inside of a hot car engine slippery, it should do a great job
keeping a simple park slide slippery.

-- Keep a thousand pairs of teflon pants near the bottom of the ladder
at the beginning of the slide.  Anybody who wants to slide faster can
borrow a set of teflon pants, put them on before he uses the slide, and
return them when he's ready to go home from the park.

How do conservation tillage practices lead to agricultural sustainability?
Zielflug [23.3K]

Conservation tillage practices help reduce soil erosion and maintain soil nutrient levels.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The approach that helps in the reduction of doing tillage practices and also reducing its frequency. this is done for obtaining certain benefits for both environment and economic. This mainly focuses on providing sustainability by leaving some plants remaining in the soil.

It aims in decreasing the emission of gases of greenhouse effects like carbon dioxide. Using these practices helps in reducing the erosion and runoffs. This will promote health of the soil because the nutrients are not take off form the soil due to soil erosion and runoffs.
