Chris shoots an arrow up into the air. The height of the arrow is given by the function h(t) = - 16t2 + 64t + 23 where t is the

time in seconds. What is the maximum height of the arrow?

Completing the square gives the answer right away.

$-16t^2+64t+23=-16(t^2-4t)+23=-16(t^2-4t+4-4)+23=-16((t-2)^2-4)+23$

$\implies h(t)=-16(t-2)^2+87$

which indicates a maximum height of 87 when $t=2$ .

Answer:

The maximum height of the arrow is 87 meters.

Explanation:

If we look at the height function of the arrow

$h(t)=-16t^{2} +64t+23$

we see that its a parabola whose principal coefficient is negative, that means is inverted or upside down.

When the arrow reaches maximum height its velocity will be zero. The velocity of an object is the derivative of the position function, in this case the so called height function.

So we we derivate the height function to get that

$h'(t)=-32t+64$

we must find the t that makes this equation equal to zero:

$-32t+64=0$

$32t=64$

$t=2s$

we replace this value of t in the height function:

$h(2 s)=-16.(2s)^{2} +64.(2s)+23$

we get that

$h(2s)=87m$

The maximum height of the arrow is 87 meters.

We have used the MKS system which uses the meter, kilogram and second as base units.

a crowbar of 2 meter is used to lift an object of 800N if the effort arm is 160cm , calculste the effort applied

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

200 N

Explanation:

The crowbar is 2 meter, or 200 cm. The effort arm is 160 cm, so the moment arm of the object is 40 cm.

(800 N) (40 cm) = F (160 cm)

F = 200 N

Two objects carry initial charges that are q1 and q2, respectively, where |q2| > |q1|. They are located 0.160 m apart and beh

mart [117]

Answer:

$\rm |q_1|=8.0\times 10^{-7}\ C,\ \ \ |q_2| = 4.6\times 10^{-6}\ C.$

Explanation:

According to the Coulomb's law, the magnitude of the electrostatic force between two static point charges $\rm q_1$ and $\rm q_1$ , separated by a distance $\rm r$ , is given by

$\rm F = \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}.$

where k is the Coulomb's constant.

Initially,

$\rm r = 0.160\ m\\F_i = -1.30\ N.\\\\and \ \ |q_2|>|q_1|.$

The negative sign is taken with force F because the force is attractive.

Therefore, the initial electrostatic force between the charges is given by

$\rm F_i = \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}.\\-1.30=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{0.160^2}\\\rm\Rightarrow q_2 = \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{q_1k}\ \ \ ..............\ (1).$

Now, the objects are then brought into contact, so the net charge is shared equally, and then they are returned to their initial positions.

The force is now repulsive, therefore, $\rm F_f = +1.30\ N.$

The new charges on the two objects are

$\rm q_1'=q_2' = \dfrac{q_1+q_2}{2}.$

The new force is given by

$\rm F_f = \dfrac{kq_1'q_2'}{r^2}\\+1.30=\dfrac{k\left (\dfrac{q_1+q_2}{2}\right )\left (\dfrac{q_1+q_2}{2}\right )}{0.160^2}\\\Rightarrow \left (\dfrac{q_1+q_2}{2}\right )^2=\dfrac{+1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\\(q_1+q_2)^2=\dfrac{4\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\\q_1^2+q_2^2+2q_1q_2=\dfrac{4\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\\\\$

Using (1),

$\rm q_1^2+\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{q_1k}\right )^2+2\left (\dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{k} \right )=\dfrac{4\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\\q_1^2+\dfrac 1{q_1^2}\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\right )^2-\left (\dfrac{6\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k} \right )=0\\q_1^4+\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\right )^2-q_1^2\left (\dfrac{6\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k} \right )=0$

$\rm q_1^4+\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\right )^2-q_1^2\left (\dfrac{6\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k} \right )=0\\q_1^4+\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{9\times 10^9}\right )^2-q_1^2\left (\dfrac{6\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{9\times 10^9} \right )=0\\q_1^4-q_1^2\left (\dfrac{6\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{9\times 10^9} \right )+\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{9\times 10^9}\right )^2=0$

$\rm q_1^4-q_1^2\left (2.22\times 10^{-11} \right )+\left ( 1.37\times 10^{-23}\right ) =0\\\Rightarrow q_1^2 = \dfrac{-(-2.22\times 10^{-11})\pm \sqrt{(-2.22\times 10^{-11})^2-4\cdot (1)\cdot (1.37\times 10^{-23})}}{2}\\=1.11\times 10^{-11}\pm 1.046\times 10^{-11}.\\=6.4\times 10^{-13}\ \ \ or\ \ \ 2.156\times 10^{-11}\\\Rightarrow q_1 = \pm 8.00\times 10^{-7}\ C\ \ \ or\ \ \ \pm 4.64\times 10^{-6}\ C.$

Using (1),

When $\rm q_1 = \pm 8.00\times 10^{-7}\ C$ ,

$\rm q_2=\dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{\pm 8.00\times 10^{-7}\times 9\times 10^9}=\mp4.6\times 10^{-6}\ C.$

When $\rm q_1=\pm 4.6\times 10^{-6}\ C$ ,

$\rm q_2=\dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{\pm 4.64\times 10^{-6}\times 9\times 10^9}=\mp7.97\times 10^{-7}\ C\approx 8.0\times 10^{-7}\ C.$

Since, $\rm |q_2|>|q_1|$

Therefore, $\rm |q_1|=8.0\times 10^{-7}\ C,\ \ \ |q_2| = 4.6\times 10^{-6}\ C.$
