A dragster runs the quarter mile in 8.96 s. What is the car's velocity (in ft/s) at the finish line?
lara [203]
The first thing you should know to answer this question is the following conversion:
 1mi = 5280feet
 We have then that the speed is:
 v = ((1/4) * (5280)) / (8.96)
 v = 147.32 feet / s
 Answer:
 the car's velocity (in ft / s) at the finish line is 147.32 feet / s

A projectile is fired with a velocity of 22 m/s at an angle of 25°. What is the vertical component of the velocity?
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Vertical component of velocity is 9.29 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of projection of a projectile, v = 22 m/s

It is fired at an angle of 22°

The horizontal component of velocity is v cosθ

The vertical component of velocity is v sinθ

So, vertical component is given by :

v_y=v\ sin(25)

v_y=22\ m/s\times\ sin(25)

v_y=9.29\ m/s

Hence, the vertical component of the velocity is 9.29 m/s

How can humans increase the rate of endangered of extinct species
labwork [276]

I would think A. Reduce Environmental Impacts.

If you build and populate more zoos, some of the endangered species might not be able to survive in captivity

If you introduce new predators they are going to kill all the endangered species and if you pass new laws about land use some people may kill the species
