The formula for maximum distance is 
X = (V^2 / g) * sin (2 * theta) 
10 = (V^2 / 9.8) * sin (2 * 20) 
10 = (V^2 / 9.0) * sin(40) 
10 = (V^2 / 9.8) * 0.324 
v^2 = (10 / 0.324) * 9.8 
V^2 = 302.47
v = 17.39 meters/sec (takeoff speed) 

The horizontal speed is  = Takeoff Speed * Cos(20) = 17.39 * 0.910 = 16.341 meters / sec

An object moving due to gravity can be described by the motion equation y=y0+v0t−12gt2, where t is time, y is the height at tha
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

t=6.4534 s

Explanation:

This is an exercise where you need to use the concepts of <em>free fall objects</em>

Our <u>knowable variables</u> are initial high, initial velocity and the acceleration due to gravity:

y_{0}=75m

v_{oy} =20m/s

g=9.8 m/s^{2}

At the end of the motion, the <u><em>rock hits the ground</em></u> making the final high y=0m

y=y_{o}+v_{oy}*t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

If we <em>evaluate the equation</em>:

0=75m+(20m/s)t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8m/s^{2})t^{2}

This is a classic form of <u><em>Quadratic Formula</em></u>, we can solve it using:

t=\frac{-b ± \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}

a=-4.9\\b=20\\c=75

t=\frac{-(20) + \sqrt{(20)^{2}-4(-4.9)(75) } }{2(-4.9)}=-2.37s

t=\frac{-(20) - \sqrt{(20)^{2}-4(-4.9)(75) } }{2(-4.9)}=6.4534s

Since the <u><em>time can not be negative</em></u>, the <em>reasonable answer</em> is

t=6.4534s

Megan walks 1100 m to the left in 330s. What was her average speed in m/s?
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

3.33m/s

Explanation:

Speed is the change in distance of a body with respect to time.

Speed = Distance/Time

Given

Distance = 1100m

Time = 330s

Speed = 1100/330

Speed = 3.33m/s

Hence her average speed in m/s is 3.33m/s

Summary about down hill on a bicycle story​
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

The poem, Going Down the Hill on a Bicycle, written by Henry Charles Beeching describes the thrilling ride of a boy going downhill. ... The poet mentions how he lifts his feet from the pedals and keeps his hands still so that he would not lose his balance and fall off the bicycle, while it is dashing down the hill.

HELP!! PICTURE ATTACHED!
tamaranim1 [39]
Question 17:

At point A, the snowboarder is on the point of moving and the potential energy would be at its maximum (the particle has to work against the force of gravity). The kinetic energy is zero since the snowboarder is not yet moving (has no velocity). 

Question 18:

At point C, the kinetic energy will be zero and the potential energy will be minimum. As the snowboarder moves from point C to B, there will be a transfer between the kinetic energy to the potential energy. At point B, the potential energy will be back to maximum.
