A Neglecting air resistance, a ball projected straight upward so it remains in the air for 10 seconds needs an initial speed of
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The initial velocity is 50 m/s.

(C) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Time = 10 sec

For first half,

We need to calculate the height

Using equation of motion

v^2=u^2+2gh

h =\dfrac{v^2}{2g}....(I)

For second half,

We need to calculate the time

Using equation of motion

h =ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt_{2}^2

h=0+\dfrac{1}{2}gt_{2}^2

t_{2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{2h}{g}}

Put the value of h from equation (I)

t_{2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times v^2}{g^2}}

t_{2}=\dfrac{v}{g}

According to question,

t_{1}+t_{2}=10

t_{1}=t_{2}

Put the value of t₁ and t₂

\dfrac{v}{g}+\dfrac{v}{g}=10

\dfrac{2v}{g}=10

v=\dfrac{10\times g}{2}

Here, g = 10

The initial velocity is

v=\dfrac{10\times10}{2}

v=50\ m/s

Hence, The initial velocity is 50 m/s.

Water that flows from behind a large dam can cause machines to produce electricity. What change takes place?
lyudmila [28]
The mechanical energy in the falling water is used to spin the generator, and gets transformed into electrical energy.  That's the first choice on the list.

Which has more inertia a shopping cart full or groceries or an empty shopping cart?
morpeh [17]
I think that  the shopping cart full of groceries has more inertia because it is the one with more tendency to do nothing or be still.

An airplane cruises at 900 km/h relative to the air. It is flying from Denver, Colorado, due west to Reno, Nevada, a distance of
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

26.5 minutes

Explanation:

When the airplane is flying due West from Denver to Reno, the due-East wind with speed of 80km/h would reduce the ground speed by 80 km/h.

Its Denver to Reno ground speed is 900 - 80 = 720 km/h

The time it takes to cover 1200km at this speed is 1200 / 720 = 1.67 hours

On the other hand, when it returns from Reno to Denver in the due-East direction, the due-East wind with speed of 80km/h would add to the ground speed by 80 km/h

Its Reno to Denver ground speed is 900 + 80 = 980 km/h

The time it takes to cover 1200 km at this speed is 1200 / 980 = 1.22 hours

The difference it flight time would be 1.67 - 1.22 = 0.44 hours or 26.5 minutes
