Answer:

3.48 seconds

Explanation:

At maximum height Vf=0 m/s

Vf= Vi - g*t

⇒g*t= Vi

⇒t= Vi/g

⇒t= 112/32.17 sec

⇒ t= 3.48 s

so the projectile will achieve its maximum height in 3.48 seconds.

A stoplight with weight 100 N is suspended at the midpoint of a cable strung between two posts 200 m apart. The attach points fo
Tasya [4]

There are 3 forces acting on the stoplight:

• its weight <em>W</em>, with magnitude <em>W</em> = 100 N, pointing directly downward

• two tension forces <em>T</em>₁ and <em>T</em>₂ with equal magnitude <em>T</em>₁ = <em>T</em>₂ = <em>T</em> = 1000 N, both making an angle of <em>θ</em> with the horizontal, but one points left and the other points right

The stoplight is in equilibrium, so by Newton's second law, the net vertical force acting on it is 0, such that

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>T</em>₁ sin(<em>θ</em>) + <em>T</em>₂ sin(180° - <em>θ</em>) - <em>W</em> = 0

We have sin(180° - <em>θ</em>) = sin(<em>θ</em>) for all <em>θ</em>, so the above reduces to

2<em>T</em> sin(<em>θ</em>) = <em>W</em>

2 (1000 N) sin(<em>θ</em>) = 100 N

sin(<em>θ</em>) = 0.05

<em>θ</em> ≈ 2.87°

If <em>y</em> is the vertical distance between the stoplight and the ground, then

tan(<em>θ</em>) = (15 m - <em>y</em>) / (100 m)

Solve for <em>y</em> :

tan(2.87°) = (15 m - <em>y</em>) / (100 m)

<em>y</em> = 15 m - (100 m) tan(2.87°)

<em>y</em> ≈ 9.99 m

A lacrosse ball that is thrown straight upwards reaches a maximum height of 4.5 m. At what initial velocity was it thrown? (note
shtirl [24]

Answer:

The initial velocity was 9.39 m/s

Explanation:

<em>Lets explain how to solve the problem</em>

The ball is thrown straight upward with initial velocity u

The ball reaches a maximum height of 4.5 m

At the maximum height velocity v = 0

The acceleration of gravity is -9.8 m/s²

We need to find the initial velocity

The best rule to find the initial velocity is <em>v² = u² + 2ah</em>, where v is

the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration of

gravity and h is the height

⇒ v = 0 , h = 4.5 m , a = -9.8 m/s²

⇒ 0 = u² + 2(-9.8)(4.5)

⇒ 0 = u² - 88.2

Add 88.2 to both sides

⇒ 88.2 = u²

Take square root for both sides

⇒ u = 9.39 m/s

<em>The initial velocity was 9.39 m/s</em>

A charged object traveling 7 m in a uniform electric field of 5 N/C experiences a 4 J increase in Kinetic Energy.
Travka [436]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the principles of conservation of Energy in order to obtain the final work done.

The electric field in terms of the Force can be expressed as

E = \frac{F}{q} \rightarrow F=Eq

Where,

F = Force

E= Electric Field

q = Charge

Puesto que el trabajo realizado es equivalente al cambio en la energía cinetica entonces tenemos que

KE = W

KE = F*d

In the First Case,

4 = (qE)d\\q = \frac{4}{Ed}\\q = \frac{4}{5*7}\\q = 0.1142C

In Second Case,

KE = q E'd

KE = (0.1142)(40)(7)

KE = 31.976J

The total energy change would be subject to,

\Delta KE = 31.976-4

\Delta KE = 27.976J

Therefore the Kinetic Energy change of the charged object is 27.976J

How do you appreciate sweating mechanism of human body to control the temperature of the body?​
ehidna [41]

Explanation:

When the body temperature tends to rise, such as during physical exercise, the body begins to sweat. The sweat with high water content is secreted in the skin and when it evaporates into the environment, it cools the body. This is due to the property of water having high heat capacity. It carries with it a lot of heat per molecule (because water requires much energy – than most materials - for its temperature to rise by a degree) hence ideal for cooling. This is why on a hot day, sweating makes the skin feel cooler than the surrounding.
