A ball rolls off the edge of a table with a fairly large horizontal velocity. Which of the following statements are true? (Selec

Degger [83]

Answer:

A.The vertical velocity is constantly increasing as the ball falls.

B.The horizontal velocity does not noticeably change as the ball falls.

G.The horizontal velocity does not affect how long it will take the ball to fall to the floor.

H.The velocity vector of the ball changes as it travels through the air.

Explanation:

As the ball is projected horizontally so here the vertical component of the velocity is zero

So the time to reach the ground is given as

$H = \frac{1}{2} gt^2$

so we will have

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}}$

so this is the same time as the ball is dropped from H height

Since there is no force in horizontal direction so its horizontal velocity will always remain constant while vertical velocity will change at constant rate which is equal to acceleration due to gravity.

So overall the velocity vector will change due to net acceleration g

A projectile is launched at an angle of 29 degrees above the horizontal with an initial velocity of 36.6 at an unknown height.

fgiga [73]

The vertical velocity of the projectile upon returning to its original is 17. 74 m/s

<h3>How to determine the vertical velocity</h3>

Using the formula:

Vertical velocity component , Vy = V * sin(α)

Where

V = initial velocity = 36. 6 m/s

α = angle of projectile = 29°

Substitute into the formula

Vy = 36. 6 * sin ( 29°)

Vy = 36. 6 * 0. 4848

Vy = 17. 74 m/s

Thus, the vertical velocity of the projectile upon returning to its original is 17. 74 m/s

A plane drops a hamper of medical supplies from a height of 5000 m during a practice run over the ocean. The plane’s horizontal

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

346.70015 m/s

Explanation:

In the x axis speed is

$v_x=149\ m/s$

In the y axis

$v_y=\sqrt{2gh}\\\Rightarrow v_y=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 5000}$

The resultant velocity is given by

$v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{149^2+2\times 9.8\times 5000}\\\Rightarrow v=346.70015\ m/s$

The magnitude of the overall velocity of the hamper at the instant it strikes the surface of the ocean is 346.70015 m/s

how much water is needed to produce 1kwh of electricity at a power plant that is 30% efficient if the temperature increase 10 C

Dimas [21]

The amount of water needed is 287 kg

Explanation:

The amount of energy that we need to produce with the power plant is

$E=1 kWh = (1000W)(1h)=(1000W)(3600s)=3.6\cdot 10^6 J$

We also know that the power plant is only 30% efficient, so the energy produced in input must be:

$E_{in}=\frac{E}{0.30}=\frac{3.6\cdot 10^6}{0.3}=1.2\cdot 10^7 J$

The amount of water that is needed to produce this energy can be found using the equation

$E_{in}=mC\Delta T$

where:

m is the amount of water

$C=4186 J/kg^{\circ}C$ is the specific heat capacity of water

$\Delta T=10^{\circ}C$ is the increase in temperature

And solving for m, we find:

$m=\frac{E_{in}}{C\Delta T}=\frac{1.2\cdot 10^7}{(4186)(10)}=287 kg$
