The person's horizontal position is given by

and the time it takes for him to travel 56.6 m is

so your first computed time is the correct one.
The question requires a bit of careful reading, and I think there may be a mistake in the problem. The person's vertical velocity
at time
is

which tells us that he would reach the ground at about
. In this time, he would have traveled

But we're told that he is caught by a net at 56.6 m, which would mean that the net cannot have been placed at the same height from which he was launched. However, it's possible that the moment at which he was launched doesn't refer to the moment the cannon went off, but rather the moment at which the person left the muzzle of the cannon a fraction of a second after the cannon was set off. After this time, the person's initial vertical velocity
would have been a bit smaller than
.
4. hyperdermis is not a layer of skin
Answer:
5.33kg
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Velocity of eagle = 15m/s
Kinetic energy of the eagle = 600J
Unknown:
Mass of the eagle = ?
Solution:
The kinetic energy of any body is the energy due to the motion of a body. There are different forms of kinetic energy some of which are thermal, mechanical, electrical energy.
The formula of kinetic energy is given as;
Kinetic energy =
m v²
where m is the mass, V is the velocity
substitute the parameters in the equation;
600 =
x m x 15²
225m = 1200
m =
= 5.33kg
