Answer:
Depends on which hemisphere you are belong to and how much distance you are away from Ecuador.
Explanation:
Minutes of daylight is equal on everywhere only on the equinox days (21 March and 23 September). On other days it depends on the place that you are belong to. On winter solstice, places on Ecuador have 12 hours daylight. North side of Ecuador have less, south side of Ecuador have more hour of daylight.
Answer:
33.2 m
Explanation:
For the first object:
y₀ = 81.5 m
v₀ = 0 m/s
a = -9.8 m/s²
t₀ = 0 s
y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²
y = 81.5 − 4.9t²
For the second object:
y₀ = 0 m
v₀ = 40.0 m/s
a = -9.8 m/s²
t₀ = 2.20 s
y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²
y = 40(t−2.2) − 4.9(t−2.2)²
When they meet:
81.5 − 4.9t² = 40(t−2.2) − 4.9(t−2.2)²
81.5 − 4.9t² = 40t − 88 − 4.9 (t² − 4.4t + 4.84)
81.5 − 4.9t² = 40t − 88 − 4.9t² + 21.56t − 23.716
81.5 = 61.56t − 111.716
193.216 = 61.56t
t = 3.139
The position at that time is:
y = 81.5 − 4.9(3.139)²
y = 33.2
Answer:
570 N
Explanation:
Draw a free body diagram on the rider. There are three forces: tension force 15° below the horizontal, drag force 30° above the horizontal, and weight downwards.
The rider is moving at constant speed, so acceleration is 0.
Sum of the forces in the x direction:
∑F = ma
F cos 30° - T cos 15° = 0
F = T cos 15° / cos 30°
Sum of the forces in the y direction:
∑F = ma
F sin 30° - W - T sin 15° = 0
W = F sin 30° - T sin 15°
Substituting:
W = (T cos 15° / cos 30°) sin 30° - T sin 15°
W = T cos 15° tan 30° - T sin 15°
W = T (cos 15° tan 30° - sin 15°)
Given T = 1900 N:
W = 1900 (cos 15° tan 30° - sin 15°)
W = 570 N
The rider weighs 570 N (which is about the same as 130 lb).
