Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

Just like how cold air falls and warm air rises the same is with water.

Also the places with the coldest water is the north and south pole. The equator is relatively always warm so yeah.

In the long jump, an athlete launches herself at an angle above the ground and lands at the same height, trying to travel the gr
NikAS [45]

A) 2.64t

B) 2.64h

C) 2.64D

Explanation:

A)

The motion of the athlete is equivalent to the motion of a projectile, which consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction

- A uniformly accelerated motion (constant acceleration) along the vertical direction

The time of flight of a projectile can be found from the equations of motion, and it is found to be

t=\frac{2u sin \theta}{g}

where

u is the initial speed

\theta is the angle of projection

g is the acceleration due to gravity

In this problem, when the athlete is on the Earth, the time of flight is t.

When she is on Mars, the acceleration due to gravity is:

g'=0.379 g

where g is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth. Therefore, the time of flight on Mars will be:

t'=\frac{2usin \theta}{g'}=\frac{2u sin \theta}{0.379g}=\frac{1}{0.379}t=2.64t

B)

The maximum height reached by a projectile can be also found using the equations of motion, and it is given by

h=\frac{u^2 sin^2\theta}{2g}

where

u is the initial speed

\theta is the angle of projection

g is the acceleration due to gravity

In this problem, when the athlete is on the Earth, the maximum height is h.

When she is on Mars, the acceleration due to gravity is:

g'=0.379 g

where g is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth. So, the maximum height reached on Mars will be:

h'=\frac{u^2 sin^2\theta}{2g'}=\frac{u^2 sin^2\theta}{(0.379)2g}=\frac{1}{0.379}h=2.64h

C)

The horizontal distance covered by a projectile is also found from the equations of motion, and it is given by

D=\frac{u^2 sin(2\theta)}{g}

where:

u is the initial speed

\theta is the angle of projection

g is the acceleration due to gravity

In this problem, when the athlete is on the Earth, the horizontal distance covered is D.

When she is on Mars, the acceleration due to gravity is:

g'=0.379 g

where g is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth. Therefore, the horizontal distance reached on Mars will be:

D'=\frac{u^2 sin(2\theta)}{g'}=\frac{u^2 sin(2\theta)}{(0.379)g}=\frac{1}{0.379}D=2.64D

At the same instant that a 0.50-kg ball is dropped from 25 m above Earth, a second ball, with a mass of 0.25 kg, is thrown strai
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The center of mass of the two-ball system is 7.05 m above ground.

Explanation:

<u>Motion of 0.50 kg ball:</u>

Initial speed, u = 0 m/s

Time = 2 s

Acceleration = 9.81 m/s²

Initial height = 25 m

Substituting in equation s = ut + 0.5 at²

                 s = 0 x 2 + 0.5 x 9.81 x 2² = 19.62 m

Height above ground = 25 - 19.62 = 5.38 m

<u>Motion of 0.25 kg ball:</u>

Initial speed, u = 15 m/s

Time = 2 s

Acceleration = -9.81 m/s²

Substituting in equation s = ut + 0.5 at²

                 s = 15 x 2 - 0.5 x 9.81 x 2² = 10.38 m

Height above ground = 10.38 m

We have equation for center of gravity

          \bar{x}=\frac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2}{m_1+m_2}

          m₁ = 0.50 kg

          x₁ = 5.38 m        

          m₂ = 0.25 kg

          x₂ = 10.38 m    

Substituting

         \bar{x}=\frac{0.50\times 5.38+0.25\times 10.38}{0.50+0.25}=7.05m

The center of mass of the two-ball system is 7.05 m above ground.
