Ask Your Teacher A basketball player shoots toward a basket 5.8 m away and 3.0 m above the floor. If the ball is released 1.7 m

above the floor at an angle of 60° above the horizontal, what must the initial speed be (in m/s) if it were to go through the basket?

Answer:

The answer to your question is    vo = 5.43 m/s

Explanation:

Data

distance = d= 5.8 m

height = 3 m

height 2 = 1.7 m

angle = 60°

vo = ?

g = 9.81 m/s²

Formula

              hmax = vo²sinФ/ 2g

Solve for vo²

              vo² = 2ghmax / sinФ

Substitution

              vo² = 2(9.81)(3 - 1.7) / 0.866

Simplification

              vo² = 19.62(1.3) / 0.866

              vo² = 25.51 / 0.866

              vo² = 29.45

Result

              vo = 5.43 m/s

denis23 [38]
Impulse = Ft = (m)(delta v)
delta v = change in velocity = velocity final - velocity initial.
= -22m/s - +18m/s = -40m/s.
mdeltav = (0.40kg)(-40m/s) = -16kgm/s or -16Ns.

An elephant and a mouse would both have zero weight in gravity-free space. If they were moving toward you with the same speed, w
Dovator [93]

The elephant and the mouse having zero weight in a gravity free space will not bump into you at the same effect.

<u>Explanation: </u>

When both are in a gravity free space, the weights are zero, as we know that the\text {weight of the body}=\text {mass of the body} \times \text {acceleration due to gravity}

\text {here, the weight of elephant}=\text {mass of elephant } \times \text {zero gravti} y=zero

\text {similarly,weight of mouse}=\text {mass of mouse } \times \text {zero gravity}=zero

But when they will acquire the speed of same magnitude, say v, their different masses will acquire different momentum, which will make the difference in effect while bumping.  

\text { momentum of elephant }=\text { mass of elephant } \times v  \text { momentum of mouse = mass of mouse } \times v

And as we know \text { mass of elephant }>\text { mass of mouse }  Therefore, effect of impact by elephant will be more than that of mouse . An elephant breaking into you will take you back faster than a mouse in space hits you.

In doing a load of clothes, a clothes dryer uses 16 A of current at 240 V for 45 min. A personal computer, in contrast, uses 2.7
jasenka [17]

Explanation:

Given that,

Current of clothes dryer, I = 16 A

Voltage, V = 240 V

Time, t = 45 min = 2700 s

Current of personal computer, I' = 2.7 A

Voltage, V' = 120 C

Energy used by clothes dryer is given by :

E=I^2Rt\\\\E=IVt\\\\E=16\times 240\times 2700\\E=1.03\times 10^7\ J

Let t' is the time for this computer to "surf" the internet. Again using formula of energy used as :

E=I'V't'\\\\t'=\dfrac{E}{I'V'}\\\\t'=\dfrac{1.03\times 10^7}{2.7\times 120}\\\\t'=31790.12\ s\\\\t'=8.83\ h

So, for 8.83 hours you could use this computer to "surf" the internet.
