Answer:

<u><em>1) if they are moving away from each other it will take 1.43 secs</em></u>

<u><em>2) if they are moving towards each other then it will take 1.11 secs</em></u>

Explanation:

Distance between them is 10 m

Speed  ( if they are moving towards each other)= distance/time

time = 10/8+1

time = distance / speed= 10/9=  1.11 secs

if they are moving away from each other than it will take

time = 10/8-1= 10/7= 1.43 secs

In equational formula we can write it: </span>
<span>
P (momentum) = m(mass) * v(velocity) </span>

so to find the mass, revert the equation:

A gray kangaroo can bound across level ground with each jump carrying it 8.7 from the takeoff point. Typically the kangaroo leav
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

a) The takeoff speed is 10 m/s.

b) The maximum height above the ground is 1.2 m.

Explanation:

The position of the kangaroo and its velocity at any given time "t" can be calculated by the following equations:

r = (x0 + v0 · t · cos α, y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²)

v =(v0 · cos α, v0 · sin α + g · t)

Where:

r = position vector at time "t".

x0 = initial horizontal position.

v0 = initial velocity.

α = jumping angle.

y0 = initial vertical position.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

v = velocity vector at time "t"

a) Please see the attached figure for a better understanding of the problem. In red is depicted the position vector at the final time (r final). The components of r final are known:

r final = (8.7 m, 0 m)

Then at final time:

8.7 m = x0 + v0 · t · cos α

0 m = y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²

(notice in the figure that the origin of the frame of reference is located at the jumping point so that x0 and y0 = 0). Then:

8.7 m = v0 · t · cos α

Solving for "v0":

8.7 m /(t · cos α) = v0

Replacing v0 in the equation of the y-component, we can obtain the final time:

0 m = 8.7 m · tan 29° - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t² (remember: sin α / cos α = tan α)

- 8.7 m · tan 29° / -4.9 m/s² = t²

t = 0.99 s

Now, we can calculate the initial speed:

8.7 m /t · cos α = v0

v0 = 8.7 m / (0.99 s · cos 29°)

<u>v0 = 10 m/s</u>

The takeoff speed is 10 m/s

b) When the kangaroo is at its maximum height, the velocity vector is horizontal (see figure). That means that the y-component of the velocity at that time is 0:

0 = v0 · sin α + g · t

Solving for "t":

-v0 · sin α / g = t

t = - 10 m/s · sin 29° / 9.8 m/s²

t = 0.49 s

Notice that we could have halved the final time (0.99 s, calculated above) to obtain the time at which the kangaroo is at its maximum height. That´s because the trajectory is parabolic.

Now, let´s find the height of the kangaroo at that time:

y = y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²

y = 10 m/s · 0.49 s · sin 29° - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · (0.49 s)²

<u>y = 1.2 m</u>

The maximum height above the ground is 1.2 m.

Which law is associated with inertia
N76 [4]

Answer:

The focus of Lesson 1 is Newton's first law of motion - sometimes referred to as the law of inertia. An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
