Answer:

1.35 m

Explanation:

Taking down to be positive, given:

Δx = Δy / tan 30.0º

v₀ₓ = 4.50 m/s

v₀ᵧ = 0 m/s

aₓ = 0 m/s²

aᵧ = 10 m/s²

Find: Δy

First, find the time it takes to land in terms of Δy.

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) t + ½ (10 m/s) t²

Δy = 5t²

Next, find Δx in terms of t.

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (4.50 m/s) t + ½ (0 m/s) t²

Δx = 4.50t

Substitute:

Δy = 5 (Δx / 4.50)²

20.25 Δy = 5 (Δx)²

4.05 Δy = (Δx)²

4.05 Δy = (Δy / tan 30.0º)²

4.05 Δy = 3 (Δy)²

1.35 = Δy

The basketball was thrown from an initial height of 1.35 m.

Water flows from the bottom of a storage tank at a rate of r(t) = 300 − 6t liters per minute, where 0 ≤ t ≤ 50. Find the amount
SSSSS [86.1K]

r(t) models the water flow rate, so the total amount of water that has flowed out of the tank can be calculated by integrating r(t) with respect to time t on the interval t = [0, 35]min

∫r(t)dt, t = [0, 35]

= ∫(300-6t)dt, t = [0, 35]

= 300t-3t², t = [0, 35]

= 300(35) - 3(35)² - 300(0) + 3(0)²

= 6825 liters

The mass of a meteoroid was found to be 1.24 × 107 kilograms. Write the mass in standard notation.
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

The value we are given in the question is 1.24 * 10^7. This form of writing number is called scientific notation. The standard notation is the normal, regular way of writing numbers. Scientific notation and standard notations are interchangeable.

1.24 * 10^7 written in standard notation will be = 1.24 * 10000000 = 12400000.

Thus, the mass of the meteoroid was 12400000 kg.
