Answer:

The speed of the Jocko and the ball move after he catches the ball is 0.75 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass if Jocko, m = 60 kg

Mass of the ball, m' = 20 kg

Speed of the ball, v = 3 m/s

Let V is the speed of Jocko and the ball move after he catches the ball. The momentum of the system remains conserved. Using the conservation of momentum as :

m'v'=(m+m')V\\\\V=\dfrac{m'v'}{(m+m')}\\\\V=\dfrac{20\times 3}{(60+20)}\\\\V=0.75\ m/s

So, the speed of the Jocko and the ball move after he catches the ball is 0.75 m/s.

For a given velocity of projection in a projectile motion, the maximum horizontal distance is possible only at ө = 45°. Substant
myrzilka [38]

First let us imagine the projectile launched at initial velocity V and at angle θ relative to the horizontal. (ignore wind resistance)

Vertical component y:

The initial vertical velocity is given as Vsinθ
The moment the projectile reaches the maximum height of h, the vertical velocity will be 0, therefore the time t taken to attain this maximum height is:

h = Vsinθ - gt
0 = Vsinθ - gt
t = (Vsinθ)/g

where g is  acceleration due to gravity

Horizontal component x:
The initial horizontal velocity is given as Vcosθ. However unlike the vertical component, this horizontal velocity remains constant because this is unaffected by gravity. The time to travel the horizontal distance D is twice the value of t times the horizontal velocity.
D = Vcosθ*[(2Vsinθ)/g] 
D = (2V²sinθ cosθ)/g 
 D = (V²sin2θ)/g

In order for D (horizontal distance) to be maximum, dD/dθ = 0
That is,

2V^2 cos2θ / g = 0
And since 2V^2/g must not be equal to zero, therefore cos(2θ) = 0
This is true when 2θ = π/2  or  θ = π/4


Therefore it is now<span> shown that the maximum horizontal travelled is attained when the launch angle is π/4 radians, or 45°.</span>

Describe how the kidney and bladder work together to remove waste from the body. (2 points)
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The kidneys make urine by filtering wastes and extra water from blood. Urine travels from the kidneys through two thin tubes called ureters and fills the bladder. When the bladder is full, a person urinates through the urethra to eliminate the waste.

Explanation:

Good luckkk

A billiard ball is moving in the x-direction at 30.0 cm/s and strikes another billiard ball moving in the y-direction at 40.0 cm
____ [38]

Answer:

53.13 °

Explanation:

In order to do this, we just need to apply the following:

tanα = Dy/Dx

Where:

Vy: speed of the ball in the y axis.

Vx: speed of the ball in the x axis.

At this point we do not need the speed of the first ball after the collision because in that moment is already heading in the direction that we are looking for. Therefore, we just need to use the innitial data to calculate the direction which the first ball will go.

According to this, then:

tanα = (40/30)

tanα = 1.3333

α = tan⁻¹(1.3333)

<h2>α = 53.13°</h2>

This means that the final direction of the first ball is 53.13° and in the x axis because the starting momentum of this ball in the x axis has not dissapeared.

Hope this helps
