A rock is thrown at a window that is located 18.0 m above the ground. The rock is thrown at an angle of 40.0° above horizontal.

The rock is thrown from a height of 2.00 m above the ground with a speed of 30.0 m/s and experiences no appreciable air resistance. If the rock strikes the window on its upward trajectory, from what horizontal distance from the window was it released?A. 29.8 mB. 27.3 mC. 48.7 mD. 71.6 mE. 53.2 m

Answer:

B) 27.3 m

Explanation:

The rock describes a parabolic path.

The parabolic movement results from the composition of a uniform rectilinear motion (horizontal ) and a uniformly accelerated rectilinear motion of upward or downward motion (vertical ).

The equation of uniform rectilinear motion (horizontal ) for the x axis is :

x =  vx*t   Equation (1)

Where:  

x: horizontal position in meters (m)

t : time (s)

vx: horizontal velocity  in m/s  

The equations of uniformly accelerated rectilinear motion of upward (vertical ) for the y axis  are:

(vfy)² = (v₀y)² - 2g(y- y₀)    Equation (2)

vfy = v₀y -gt    Equation (3)

Where:  

y: vertical position in meters (m)  

y₀ : initial vertical position in meters (m)  

t : time in seconds (s)

v₀y: initial  vertical velocity  in m/s  

vfy: final  vertical velocity  in m/s  

g: acceleration due to gravity in m/s²

Data

v₀ = 30 m/s , at an angle  α=40.0° above the horizontal

v₀x = vx = 30*cos40° = 22.98 m/s

v₀y = 30*sin40° = 19.28 m/s

y₀ = 2m

y =  18.0 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

Calculation of the time (t) it takes for the rock to reach at  18 m above the ground

We replace data in the equation (2)

(vfy)² = (v₀y)² - 2g(y- y₀)    

(vfy)² = (19.28)² - 2(9.8)(18- 2)

(vfy)² = 371.86 - 313.6

(vfy)² = 58.26

v_{f} = \sqrt{58.26}

vfy = 7.63 m/s

We replace vfy = 7.63 m/s in the equation (2)

vfy = v₀y - gt

7.63 = 19.28 - (9.8)(t)

(9.8)(t) = 11.65

t = 11.65 / (9.8)

t = 1.19 s

Horizontal distance from where the rock was thrown to the window

We replace t = 1.19 s , in the equation (1)

x =  vx*t  

x = (22.98)* ( 1.19 )

x = 27.3 m

If a population is growing what can you conclude about the ammount of resources available
Elodia [21]

Answer:

Generally speaking, as the human population grows, our consumption of natural resources increases. More humans consume more freshwater, more land, more clothing, etc. ... For example, natural gas plants have become increasingly more efficient, thus humans are able to obtain more energy out of the same amount of gas.

Rapid population growth is detrimental to achieving economic and social progress and to sustainable management of the natural resource base. But there remains a sizeable gap between the private and social interest in fertility reduction, and this gap needs to be narrowed.

A video store owner noticed a 5% drop in rentals of DVDs after raising her prices 10%. Are DVD rentals
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Inelastic

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand is the degree of responsiveness of demand for a product or service to a unit change in price. The demand for a product is said to be elastic when a change in price has a relatively large effect on the demand for the product, unitary when there is a percentage change in price brings about an equal percentage change in the demand for the product, and inelastic when a change in the price of a product brings about a smaller change in the demand for the product.

<em>In the case of the DVD rentals, a 10% increase in price brought about only a 5% drop in demand. Hence, the demand for DVD rentals is said to be inelastic because a change in the price brought about a smaller change in the demand for DVD rentals.</em>

A mass of gas under constant Pressure occupies a volume of 0.5 M3 At a temperature of 20゚C using the formula for Cubic expansion
MAVERICK [17]

To answer this question, we must use the equation for the volumetric expansion of gases at constant pressure. This equation is given by:

V=V_{0}(1 + \alpha(T_{2}-T_{1}))

We know:

V_{0} is the initial volume = 0.5 m ^ 3

ΔT is the temperature change = 45 ° -20 ° = 25 °

\alpha is the coefficient of gas expansion and is equal to 1/273

Then the final volume of the gas is:

V=0.5*(1+\frac{1}{273}*25)

V=0.546m^ 3
