A rock is thrown at a window that is located 18.0 m above the ground. The rock is thrown at an angle of 40.0° above horizontal.

The rock is thrown from a height of 2.00 m above the ground with a speed of 30.0 m/s and experiences no appreciable air resistance. If the rock strikes the window on its upward trajectory, from what horizontal distance from the window was it released?
A. 29.8 m
B. 27.3 m
C. 48.7 m
D. 71.6 m
E. 53.2 m

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the kinematic equations of linear descriptive motion. With the components of speed we can find both time and distance that separates them. The two components given are:

v_x = 30cos40\°

v_y = 30sin40\°

Applying the vertical displacement equation we have to

y = \frac{1}{2}at^2 +v_yt +y_1

Replacing we have,

18= \frac{1}{2}(-9.81)t^2+30sin40t+2

Solving for t,

t = 1.189s

Through the horizontal component we can find the displacement which is given as,

d = v_x (t)

d = 30 cos40 (1.189)

d = 27.324m

Therefore the correct answer is B.

Highest fluid potential energy: answer A
Because the fluid is pushed upwards and potential energy is function of height. Since point A is the highest, there is the highest potential energy.

highest fluid pressure: answer C
This is because it is at the bottom where you have a hydrostatic pressure component

increasing fluid speed: answer B
This is because the section of the pipe is smaller and in order to have the same fluid flow rate the speed must increase

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

the reason for the acceleration month that the coefficient of kinetic friction is less than the coefficient of satic frictionExplanation:

This exercise uses Newton's second law with the condition that the acceleration is zero, by the time the body begins to slide. At this point the balance of forces is

    fr- w || = 0

The expression for friction force is that it is proportional to the coefficient of friction by normal.

    fr = μ N

When the system is immobile, the coefficient of friction is called static coefficient and has a value, this is due to the union between  the surface, when the movement begins some joints are broken giving rise to coefficient of kinetic friction less than static.  

In consequence a lower friction force, which is why the system comes out of balance and begins to accelerate.

      μ kinetic <μ static

  In all this movement the normal with changed that the angle of the table remains fixed.

Consequently, the reason for the acceleration month that the coefficient of kinetic friction is less than the coefficient of satic friction

The energy content of a certain food is to be determined in a bomb calorimeter that contains 3 kg of water by burning a 2-g samp
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

20.179 x 10⁶ J /kg

Explanation:

The food after the reaction gives out heat which increases the temperature of water and air in the reaction chamber . The heat absorbed by water and air gives the estimate of energy content of the food.

Heat absorbed by water = mass x specific heat x rise in temperature

=  3 x 4.18 x 10³ x 3.2

= 40.128 x 10³ J

Heat absorbed by air  = mass x specific heat x rise in temperature

0.1 x 3. 2 x .718 x 10³

= 0.23 x 10³

Total heat energy evolved

= 40.358 x 10³ J

This energy is evolved by 2 x 10⁻³ kg of food

energy content per kg of food

= 40.358 x 10³ / 2 x 10⁻³

= 20.179 x 10⁶ J /kg
