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.

Define linear expansivity
lidiya [134]

Linear expansivity is a type of thermal expansion. It is described by a fraction that represents the fractional increase in length of a thin beam of a material exposed to a temperature increase of one degree Celsius. ... Linear expansivity is used in many real world applications.

Arocket launches at an angle of 33.6 degrees from the horizontal at a
babymother [125]

Answer:

Y component = 32.37

Explanation:

Given:

Angle of projection of the rocket is, \theta=33.6

Initial velocity of the rocket is, u=58.5

A vector at an angle \theta with the horizontal can be resolved into mutually perpendicular components; one along the horizontal direction and the other along the vertical direction.

If a vector 'A' makes angle \theta with the horizontal, then the horizontal and vertical components are given as:

A_x=A\cos \theta(\textrm{Horizontal or X component})\\A_y=A\sin \theta(\textrm{Vertical or Y component})

Here, as the velocity is a vector quantity and makes an angle of 33.6 with the horizontal, its Y component is given as:

u_y=u\sin \theta

Plug in the given values and solve for u_y. This gives,

u_y=(58.5)(\sin 33.6)\\u_y=58.5\times 0.55339\\u_y=32.373\approx32.37(\textrm{Rounded to two decimal places})

Therefore, the Y component of initial velocity is 32.37.
