<h2>Initial speed of the ball is 24.38 m/s</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the vertical motion of ball,  

   We have equation of motion v = u + at  

   Initial velocity, u = u sin θ  

   Final velocity, v = -u sin θ  

   Acceleration = -g  

Substituting  

   v = u + at  

   -u sin θ = u sin θ - g t  

   t=\frac{2usin\theta }{g}  

This is the time of flight.  

Consider the vertical motion of ball till maximum height,  

  We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as  

  Initial velocity, u = u sin θ

  Acceleration, a = -g  

  Final velocity, v = 0 m/s  

Substituting  

  v² = u² + 2as  

  0² = u²sin² θ + 2 x -g x H

  H=\frac{u^2sin^2\theta }{2g}

This is the maximum height reached,  

Consider the horizontal motion of ball,  

  Initial velocity, u = u cos θ  

  Acceleration, a =0 m/s²  

  Time, t=\frac{usin\theta }{g}  

Substituting  

  s = ut + 0.5 at²  

  s=ucos\theta \times \frac{2usin\theta }{g}+0.5\times 0\times (\frac{2usin\theta }{g})^2\\\\s=\frac{2u^2sin\theta cos\theta}{g}\\\\s=\frac{u^2sin2\theta}{g}  

This is the range.  

Here θ = 45° and S = 60.6 m

Substituting

           s=\frac{u^2sin2\theta}{g}\\\\60.6=\frac{u^2\times sin(2\times 45)}{9.81}\\\\u=24.38m/s

Initial speed of the ball is 24.38 m/s

Is 2,750 a reasonable answer for 917 x 33? Explain.
vovangra [49]

No, 2750 is a sadly unreasonable estimate. 917 is almost 1,000 . 33 times as much is around 30,000 . 2,750 is less than 3,000 .

Step-by-step explanation:

so it will be 3,0261

Sean places 28 tomato plants in rows. All rows contain the same number of plants. There are netween 5 and 12 plants in each row.
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

4 rows of 7 plants each

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of plants in each row between 5 and 12 requires us to find the factors of the total 28.

28 has factors 1,28 and 2,14 and 4,7. Only 4,7 has a number between 5 and 12. There are 4 rows of 7 plants.
