A fire hose ejects a stream of water at an angle of 35.0° above the horizontal. The water leaves the nozzle with a speed of 25.

0 m/s. Assuming that the water behaves like a projectile, how far from a building should the fire hose be located to hit the highest possible fire?

Answer:

The fire hose be located 59.80 m away to hit the highest possible fire.

Explanation:

Vertical velocity = 25 sin35 = 14.34 m/s

Acceleration = -9.81m/s²

At maximum height , final vertical velocity = 0 m/s

We have v = u + at

Substituting

           0 = 14.34 - 9.81 x t

           t = 1.46 s

Time of flight of water = 2 x 1.46 = 2.92 s

Horizontal velocity = 25 cos35 = 20.48 m/s

Horizontal displacement = 20.48 x 2.92 = 59.80 m

So, the fire hose be located 59.80 m away to hit the highest possible fire.

A box is dropped onto a conveyor belt moving at 3.2 m/s. If the coefficient of friction between the box and the belt is 0.28, ho
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

t = 1.16 s.

Explanation:

Given,

speed of conveyor belt, v = 3.2 m/s

coefficient of friction,f = 0.28

Using newton second law

f = ma

and we also know that frictional force

f = μ N

f = μ m g

equating both the force equation

a = μ g

a = 0.28 x 9.81

a = 2.75 m/s²

Using Kinematic equation

v = u + at

3.2 = 0 + 2.75 x t

t = 1.16 s.

Time taken by the box to move without slipping is 1.16 s.

kkurt [141]

Here as we know that there is no loss of energy

so we can say that maximum kinetic energy will become gravitational potential energy at its maximum height

So here we have

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh

here we have

v = 20 m/s

m = 8000 kg

now from above equation we have

\frac{1}{2}(8000)(20^2) = (8000)(9.8)h

h = \frac{200}{9.8)

h = 20.4 m

so maximum height is 20.4 m

What difficulty will you encounter if you only have data from two recording station?
denpristay [2]

<span>If you have only two data from two recording stations then you will be having a hard time finding the correct location of the epicenter. This is because triangulation method requires 3 recording station. If you have 2 recording station, the 2 circles will intersect at 2 points giving you 2 locations that could possibly be the epicenter.</span>
