4. The Coyote has an initial position vector of \vec r_0=(15.5\,\mathrm m)\,\vec\jmath.

4a. The Coyote has an initial velocity vector of \vec v_0=\left(3.5\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\,\vec\imath. His position at time t is given by the vector

\vec r=\vec r_0+\vec v_0t+\dfrac12\vec at^2

where \vec a is the Coyote's acceleration vector at time t. He experiences acceleration only in the downward direction because of gravity, and in particular \vec a=-g\,\vec\jmath where g=9.80\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}. Splitting up the position vector into components, we have \vec r=r_x\,\vec\imath+r_y\,\vec\jmath with

r_x=\left(3.5\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)t

r_y=15.5\,\mathrm m-\dfrac g2t^2

The Coyote hits the ground when r_y=0:

15.5\,\mathrm m-\dfrac g2t^2=0\implies t=1.8\,\mathrm s

4b. Here we evaluate r_x at the time found in (4a).

r_x=\left(3.5\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)(1.8\,\mathrm s)=6.3\,\mathrm m

5. The shell has initial position vector \vec r_0=(1.52\,\mathrm m)\,\vec\jmath, and we're told that after some time the bullet (now separated from the shell) has a position of \vec r=(3500\,\mathrm m)\,\vec\imath.

5a. The vertical component of the shell's position vector is

r_y=1.52\,\mathrm m-\dfrac g2t^2

We find the shell hits the ground at

1.52\,\mathrm m-\dfrac g2t^2=0\implies t=0.56\,\mathrm s

5b. The horizontal component of the bullet's position vector is

r_x=v_0t

where v_0 is the muzzle velocity of the bullet. It traveled 3500 m in the time it took the shell to fall to the ground, so we can solve for v_0:

3500\,\mathrm m=v_0(0.56\,\mathrm s)\implies v_0=6300\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

An ice cube of mass 50.0 g can slide without friction up and down a 25.0 degree slope. The ice cube is pressed against a spring
lozanna [386]

Answer:

0.6 m

Explanation:

When a spring is compressed it stores potential energy. This energy is:

Ep = 1/2 * k * x^2

Being x the distance it compressed/stretched.

When the spring bounces the ice cube back it will transfer that energy to the cube, it will raise up the slope, reaching a high point where it will have a speed of zero and a potential energy equal to what the spring gave it.

The potential energy of the ice cube is:

Ep = m * g * h

This is vertical height and is related to the distance up the slope by:

sin(a) = h/d

h = sin(a) * d

Replacing:

Ep = m * g * sin(a) * d

Equating both potential energies:

1/2 * k * x^2 = m * g * sin(a) * d

d = (1/2 * k * x^2) / (m * g * sin(a))

d= (1/2 * 25 * 0.1^2) / (0.05 * 9.81 * sin(25)) = 0.6 m

If you were to move to the Canadian North Woods, what adaptations or behavioral changes would you make?
iragen [17]

Adaptation will mean taking action to minimize the negative effects of change. ... the use of new tools and techniques for decision-making, For example, projected increases in drought, fire, windstorms, and insect and disease outbreaks are expected to result in greater tree mortality. Fewer trees will reduce Canada’s timber supply, which in turn will affect the economic competitiveness of Canada’s forest industry. This would leave forestry-dependent communities vulnerable to job losses, closure of forestry processing facilities and an overall economic slump.

What kind of scattering (Rayleigh, Mie, or non-selective) would you expect to be most important when radiation of the specified
oee [108]

Answer:

hello your question is not properly arranged attached below is the arranged table and solution

answer : attached table below

Explanation:

Given data:

02 molecules size = 10^-10m

smoke particles size = 0.3 mm

cloud droplets size = 20 mm

Rain droplets size = 3 mm

Attached below is a table showing the kind of scattering that is expected to occur at various wave lengths

Note : For Rayleigh scattering the wave particle is smaller than the wave length while for Non-selective scattering the wave particle is greater than the wavelength.

and  For Mie scattering the wavelength is the same as the wavelength.
