Review Interactive LearningWare 2.2 as an aid in solving this problem. A hot air balloon is ascending straight up at a constant

speed of 8.40 m/s. When the balloon is 14.0 m above the ground, a gun fires a pellet straight up from ground level with an initial speed of 27.0 m/s. Along the paths of the balloon and the pellet, there are two places where each of them has the same altitude at the same time. How far above ground level are these places

Answer:

y₁ = 37.2 m,      y₂ = 22,6 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use the kinematic equations

For the globe, with index 1

       y₁ = y₀ + v₁ t

For the shot with index 2

       y₂ = 0 + v₂ t - ½ g t²

 At the point where the position of the two bodies meet is the same

        y₁ = y₂

        y₀ + v₁ t = v₂ t - ½ g t²

        14 + 8.40t = 27.0 t - ½ 9.8 t²

        4.9 t² - 18.6 t + 14 = 0

        t² - 3,796 t + 2,857 = 0

Let's look for time by solving the second degree equation

         t = [3,796 ±√(3,796 2 - 4 2,857)] / 2

         t = [3,796 ± 1,727] / 2

         

         t₁ = 2.7615 s

         t₂ = 1.03 s

Now we can calculate the distance for each time

         y₁ = v₂ t₁ - ½ g t₁²

        y₁ = 27 2.7615 - ½ 9.8 2.7615²

        y₁ = 37.2 m

       

        y₂ = v₂ t₂ - ½ g t₂²

        y₂ = 27 1.03 - ½ 9.8 1.03²

        y₂ = 22,612 m

As SCUBA divers go deeper underwater, the pressure from the weight of all the water above them increases tremendously which comp
slavikrds [6]

Answer: A.

As a diver rises, the pressure on their body decreases which allows the volume of the gas to decrease.

Explanation:

The problem is that a diver, experiences an increased pressure of water compresses nitrogen and more of it dissolves into the body. Just as there is a natural nitrogen saturation point at the surface, there are saturation points under water. Those depend on the depth, the type of body tissue involved, and also how long a diver is exposed to the extra pressure. The deeper a diver go, the more nitrogen the body absorbs.

The problem is getting rid of the nitrogen once you ascend again. As the pressure diminishes, nitrogen starts dissolving out of the tissues of the diver's body, a process called "off-gassing." That results in tiny nitrogen bubbles that then get carried to the lungs and breathed out. However, if there is too much nitrogen and/or it is released too quickly, small bubbles can combine to form larger bubbles, and those can do damage to the body, anything from minor discomforts all the way to major problems and even death.
