As a science fair project, you want to launch an 950g model rocket straight up and hit a horizontally moving target as it passes

40.0m above the launch point. The rocket engine provides a constant thrust of 18.3N . The target is approaching at a speed of 19.0m/s . At what horizontal distance between the target and the rocket should you launch?

Answer:

55.28 m

Explanation:

Mass of the rocket = 950 g = 950 / 1000 = 0.95 kg

force of gravity = 0.95 Kg × 9.81 m/s² = 9.3195 N

force due to acceleration = 18.3 N - 9.3195 N = 8.9805 N

F = ma

acceleration of the rocket = F / m = 8.9805 N / 0.95 Kg = 9.45 m/s²

using the equation of motion

d = ut + 1/2 at² u = 0 m/s

d = 1/2 at²

t = √(2d / a) = √ ( 2 × 40 m /  9.45 m/s²) = 2.91 s

the horizontal distance between the target and the rocket = vt = 19 m/s × 2.91 s = 55.28 m

Which of the following models shows how unpredictable electrons are?
Fantom [35]

D

The exact location of electrons in electron shells of atoms cannot be exactly ascertained. This is why VSPER atomic models represent the position of electrons (s, p, d, & f) using the probability of where they would most be expected to be found.

Explanation:

This is because merely observing electrons changes their behavior. Remember that to observe something one has to shine light on it so it bounces back to the eye. Due to the negligible mass of electrons, mere photons of light will change their direction of movement, spin or other behaviors/properties.

In a good hit, a baseball and bat are in contact with each other for about 1 millisecond. In the first game of the 2012 World Se
kramer

Answer:

Explanation:

100 mph = 100 x 1760 x 3 / ( 60 x 60 )

= 146.67 ft / s

70 mph = 70 x 1760 x 3 / ( 60 x 60 )

= 102.67 ft/s

Let mass of the ball = m .

The ball which was moving with a velocity of 146.67 ft/s is turned back by the action of force of bat on the ball and it moved in opposite direction with velocity of - 102.67 ft/s ( - ve sign due to reversed direction )

If m be the mass of ball

change in momentum = m x 146.67 - ( - m x 102.67 )

=  m x 146.67 +  m x 102.67

= 249.34 m

Change in momentum = impulse = force x time

Putting the given values

249.34 m = force x 1 x 10⁻³ ( time = 10⁻³ s )

force = 249.34 m x 10³ poundal .

Here m is mass of the ball in lb .
