<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

Mason has 29.8 ounces of peanuts. He eats 5 ounces of the peanuts. Then he divides the rest of the peanuts equally among 4 frien
Snowcat [4.5K]

Alright, so the first step we are gonna do to solve this problem is subtract since Mason ate 5 ounces of the peanuts and so, we need to subtract 5 out of 29.8.

29.8 - 5 = 24.8

So, now there is 24.8 ounces.

Now we move onto the next step which is division. As you can see in the question it says "Then he divides the rest of the peanuts equally among 4 friends."

24. 8 ÷ 4 = 6.2

Since the answer is supposed to be a decimal..that's your answer!

So overall, each of Mason's friends get 6.2 ounces of peanuts.

Hope this helps!

If you are needing any more help, comment below this comment for any contact of mine. I'll be glad to help!

Darya [45]

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the fundamental counting principal.

There are 6 possible outcomes on one spinner and 5 possible outcomes on the other spinner. Multiply the possible outcomes together to get the total possible outcomes.

6 x 5 = 30
