In 1939 or 1940, Emanuel Zacchini took his human-cannonball act to an extreme. After being shot from a cannon, he soared over th

ree Ferris wheels and into a net. Assume that he is launched with a speed of 26.5 m/s and at an angle of 53.0° and neglect air drag.
a) Treating him as a particle, calculate his clearance over the first wheel.
b) If he reach maximum height over the middle wheel, by how much did he clear it?
c) How far from the cannon should the net's center have been positioned?

 We first determine the vertex by using the formula,<span>-b/2a = vertex, in order to get the values for the t-coordinate. That is why we got 
</span>
v_y=26.5 sin(53)=21.163v_x=26.5 cos(53)=15.948 
then

let x=0since you are going to land on a 3m tally=-.5(9.8)t^2+ 21.163*t
y=0=-4.9t+21.163t=4.31
vx*4.31= total distance travelled=68.88m
Then for the first wheel, you have 15.948m=vxdetermine the time when he reaches 23 meters, that is

23/15.948=1.44218 sec

substitute t with1.44218 sec, then determine the height.
h(1.44218)=20.329

determine vertex by using a graphing calculatort=2.1594s h=22.85m
using the time value of the vertex, determine horizontal distance travelled
34.438m away from cannon

Brrunno [24]
“Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction by which offspring arise from a single organism, and inherit the genes of that parent only; it does not involve the fusion of gametes, and almost never changes the number of chromosomes.” -Wikipedia

Definition of AM and Fm Wave? in your own word
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

In AM broadcasting, the amplitude of the carrier wave is modulated to encode the original sound. In FM broadcasting, the frequency of the carrier wave is modulated to encode the sound. A radio receiver extracts the original program sound from the modulated radio signal and reproduces the sound in a loudspeaker.

After you enlarge a map, which one of the following scale remains correct?
9966 [12]

Answer:

None

Explanation:

An scale is the factor by which actual features on ground are enlarged or reduced for representing on a plane. There are different kinds of scales:

  • Verbal scale use of words to represent scale information on the map.  The distance or linear units are used for depicting this scale on the map.  For example: 1 inch = 1 Kilo meter.
  • Fractional scale uses the numbers or values for showing the scale instead of words. As the name says, it is represented using a fraction or ratio.  Example: 1: 10,000 or 1/10,000
  • In large scale more details are shown in a map, however, less area coverage will be shown in a single map as the scale is large and more details are given.  Example: 1:500
  • Small scale is exactly opposite to the large scale, less details are shown as magnification is not enough, however a large amount of area can be shown in a single map.  Example: 1:25,000
  • A graphic scale is a bar that has been calibrated to show map distances. On maps that have been reduced or enlarged the original ratio and written scales are incorrect, since the relationship between map distance and real world distance has been altered, graphic scale is enlarged or reduced to the same extent as the map, this makes it the right option.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
