The function h(t) = –16t2 + 96t + 6 represents an object projected into the air from a cannon. The maximum height reached by the

object is 150 feet. After how many seconds does the object reach its maximum height? 2 seconds 3 seconds 6 seconds 9 seconds

Answer:

3 seconds

Explanation:

Since h(t) represents the height and t represents the time, we can set the equation equal to 150 to find t.

-16t^2+96t+6=150

Subtract 150 from both sides to set the equation equal to 0, to find the solutions.

-16t^2+96t-144=0

Factor out -16, because all of the terms are divisible by it.

-16(t^2+6t+9)=0

Now we can focus on the terms inside the parenthesis and factor it again.

t^2-6t+9=0

We need to find two value that can be multiplied to get 9 and added to get -6.

-3 and -3 works.

Thus, we get (x-3)(x-3).

Now solve for 0.

x-3=0

x=3

The object reaches its maximum height after 3 seconds.

An electron of mass 9.11×10−31 kgkg leaves one end of a TV picture tube with zero initial speed and travels in a straight line t

ki77a [65]

Explanation:

We will use the equations of constant acceleration to find out $a_{x}$ and time t.

As we know that the initial speed is zero. So

(a)

$v_{0x} = 0$

$x - x_{o} = 1.25$ × $10^{-2}$ m

$v_{x} = 3.3$ × $10^{6}$ m/s

$v^{2} _{x} = v^{2} _{x_{o} } + 2a_{x} (x - x_{o} )$

$a_{x} = \frac{v^{2} _{x} - v^{2} _{ox} }{2(x - x_{o}) }$

= $\frac{(3.3 * 10^{6})^{2} - 0 }{2(1.25 * 10^{-2}) }$

= 4.356× $10^{14}$ m/s²

(b)

$v_{x} = v_{ox} + a_{x}t$

$t = v_{x} - vo_{x}/a_{x}$

$t = \frac{3.00 * 10^{6} }{4.356*10^{14} }$ = 6.8870× $10^{-9}$ s

(c)

Σ $F_{x} = ma_{x}$

= (9.11× $10^{-31}$ )(4.356× $10^{14}$ m/s²)

= 3.968× $10^{-16}$ N

The work of Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar is likely to have been most influenced by the work of which of the following scientists?

borishaifa [10]

Answer

Correct Answer is B(Edwin Hubble)

Explantion

The work of Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar is likely to have been most influenced by Edwin Hubble because both have worked in the feild of astrophysics.

Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar was an astrophysicist. He belons to India. He is known for his work on the theoretical structure and evolution of stars. Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar with William Fowler won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1983 largely for this early work. He has worked in many other areas within theoretical physics and astrophysics.

Edwin Hubble was an astronomer who belongs to America. He is known for Hubble Law. Hubble discovered that many objects which was thought to be clouds of dust and gas were actually galaxies beyond the Milky Way. He has an important contribution in establishing the fields of observational cosmology and extra galactic astronomy

A 250-lb block is subjected to a horizontal force P. The coefficient of friction between the block and surface is µs = 0.2. Dete

aev [14]

Answer:

force required to push the block = 219.714 lb

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

weight W of block = 250 lb

coefficient of friction = 0.2

consider equilibrium condition in x direction

$P*cos(30)-W*sin(30)-\mu _{s}N = 0$

$P*0.866-0.2N = 125$ .........................(1)

consider equilibrium condition in Y direction

$N-Wcos(30)-Psin(30)= 0$

$N-0.5P=216.503$ .....................(2)

SOLVING 1 and 2 equation we get N value

N = 326.36 lb

putting N value in either equation we get force required to push the block = 219.714 lb
