A dolphin in an aquatic show jumps straight up out of the water at a velocity of 13.0 m/s.

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

a) Knowns, initial speed $v_{i}=13.0 m/s$ , final speed $v_{f}=0 m/s$ and gravity due it is a constant $g=9.8m/s^{2}$

b) The maximum high reached by the dolphin is $y_{max}=8.62 m$

c) Total time is $t=2.65s$

Explanation:

a) First of all the initial speed is given at the start of the problem, gravity is constant and final speed is known any object thrown straight up reaches its max high at $0m/s$ speed.

b) Second, now that we know final speed we use $v_{f} =v_{i}-gt$ , as we clear for $t=\frac{v_{i}-v_{f} }{g}=\frac{20.0m/s}{9.8m/s^{2} }=1.32 s$ .

Then we use $y=v_{i}t-\frac{1}{2} gt^{2}=(20.0m/s)(1.32s)-\frac{1}{2} (9.8m/s^{2} ) (1.32s)^{2} =8.62m$

c)Third, finally we can use $y=v_{i}t-\frac{1}{2} gt^{2}$ , as we know $y=0m$ when the dolphin fall into the water again and $v_{i} =13.0m/s$ , then we have $0=(13m/s)t-\frac{1}{2} (9.8m/s^{2} )t^{2}$ is a quadratic form $0=t(13.0-4.9t)$ so we have $t_{i}=0s$ and $t_{f}=\frac{13}{4.90} =2.65s$

Why are scientific models important?

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

Scientific models are representations of objects, systems or events and are used as tools for understanding the natural world. Models use familiar objects to represent unfamiliar things. Models can help scientists communicate their ideas, understand processes, and make predictions.

Choose the appropriate description for an electron.

DedPeter [7]

Answer:negative charge, small relative mass, and found outside the nucleus

Explanation:

The electron is one of the subatomic particles. It is negatively charged and has a relatively small or somewhat negligible mass. It is found outside the nucleus on the orbits. The electron is bound to the nucleus by electrostatic forces of attraction in the Bohr's model of the atom.

A mass is oscillating up and down on a spring. In the above graph of

melomori [17]

Answer:

<em>Amplitude= 8 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>The Amplitude of a Wave</u>

Sinusoidal Function refers to a mathematical curve with a smooth and periodic oscillation. Its name comes from the sine function and is characterized by the amplitude or the maximum displacement or distance moved by a point on a vibrating body measured from its equilibrium position.

To calculate the amplitude from a graph, we measure the maximum point and the minimum point the wave reaches. Then we subtract both values and divide the result by 2.

The shown wave in the figure has a maximum value of 8 m and a minimum value of -8 m. The distance from the maximum to the minimum is 8-(-8)= 16 m, thus the amplitude is 16/2= 8m.

Amplitude= 8 m
