Answer:

8 months needed to grow one inch in diameter by water oak and it grows 24 inches of height in a year.

Explanation:

In 2 different ways the trunk of a tree grows first the height than second in diameter usually in diameter tree grows one ring per year. We can say on counting the number of rings we can determine the age of a tree both of the growth does not occur in the same rate.

Tree grows more higher as compared to the  diameter growth and mature trees usually grows 1 inch in diameter every year.

Water oak gets 24 inches height growth every year and   1.5 inch growth in diameter annually means if we divide 1.5 inches by 12 months we gets 0.125 inches growth monthly.so we can say 8 months are needed to grow the diameter of water oak 1 inch.

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

The vertical distance that the ski jumper fell is 417.45 m.

Explanation:

Given;

initial horizontal velocity of the jumper, V_x = 26 m/s

horizontal distance of the jumper, dx = 240 m

The time of the motion is given by;

dx = Vₓt

t = dx / Vₓ

t = 240 / 26

t = 9.23 s

The vertical distance traveled by the diver is given by;

d_y = V_yt + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

initial vertical velocity, V_y, = 0

d_y =  \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\d_y = \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(9.23)^2\\\\d_y = 417.45 \ m

Therefore, the vertical distance that the ski jumper fell is 417.45 m.

Consider a long rod of mass, m, and length, l, which is thin enough that its width can be ignored compared to its length. The ro
ehidna [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

The rod will act as pendulum for small oscillation .

Time period of oscillation

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

angular frequency ω = 2π / T

= \omega=\sqrt{\frac{g}{l} }

b )

ω = 20( given )

velocity = ω r = ω l

Let the maximum angular displacement in terms of degree be θ .

1/2 m v ² = mgl ( 1 - cosθ ) ,

[ l-lcosθ is loss of height . we have applied law of conservation of mechanical energy .]

.5 (  ω l )² = gl( 1 - cos θ )

.5 ω² l = g ( 1 - cosθ )

1 - cosθ  = .5 ω² l /g

cosθ = 1 - .5 ω² l /g

θ can be calculated , if value of l is given .
