The speed of a projectile when it reaches its maximum height is 0.58 times its speed when it is at half its maximum height. What

Ne4ueva [31]

Speed of the projectile at its maximum height is only along horizontal direction

so at highest point

$v_1 = v_x$

now when he is at half of the maximum height the speed will be in x and y direction both

$v_2 = \sqrt{v_y^2 + v_x^2}$

here it is given that

$v_1 = 0.58 v_2$

$v_x = 0.58\sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}$

$2.97 v_x^2 = v_x^2 + v_y^2$

$1.97 v_x^2 = v_y^2$

also we know that

$v_y^2 = v_{iy}^2 - 2 g \frac{H}{2}$

here we know that maximum height is given as

$H = \frac{v_{iy}^2}{2g}$

$v_y^2 = v_{iy}^2 - 2 g\frac{v_{iy}^2}{4g}$

$v_y^2 = \frac{v_{iy}^2}{2}$

now from above

$1.97 v_x^2 = \frac{v_{iy}^2}{2}$

$1.98 v_x = v_{iy}$

also we know that angle of projection is

$tan\theta = \frac{v_{iy}}{v_x}$

$tan\theta = \frac{1.98v_x}{v_x}$

so angle is

$\theta = tan^{-1} 1.98$

$\theta = 63.3 degree$

Which layer of the atmosphere has the highest density?

fomenos

Answer:

The Troposphere is the lowermost portion of Earth’s atmosphere. It is the densest layer of the atmosphere and contains approximately 75 percent of the mass of the atmosphere and almost all the water vapor and aerosol. The troposphere extends from the Earth’s surface up to the tropopause where the stratosphere begins.

What is the acceleration of a Ford Mustang GT that can go from 0.00 to 27.8<br> m/s in 5.15 seconds?

bixtya [17]

Finding acceleration= final speed-initial speed/time taken (or A=V-U\T)

Finial speed= 27.8s
Initial speed= 0s
Time taken= 5.15

So..

27.8-0/5.15= 5.40m/s (rounded to two decimal places)
