Answer:

2.1 s

Explanation:

The motion of the ball is a projectile motion. We know that the horizontal range of the ball is

d = 50 m

And that the initial speed of the ball is

u=25 m/s

at an angle of

\theta=20^{\circ}

So, the horizontal speed of the ball (which is constant during the entire motion) is

u_x = u cos \theta = 25 \cdot cos 20^{\circ} = 23.5 m/s

And since the horizontal range is 50 m, the time taken for the ball to cover this distance was

t=\frac{d}{u_x}=\frac{50}{23.5}=2.1 s

which is the time the ball spent in air.

PLEASE HELPPPPP

The only graph that accurately depict the given motion is graph D.

The given parameters;

  • initial position of the man = 0
  • direction of the man's first displacement = backward
  • time of first motion, t₁ = 6 seconds
  • velocity of this first displacement = v₁
  • time without any motion (<em>zero movement</em>) = 6 seconds
  • direction of the second displacement = forward
  • velocity of second displacement = 2v₁

Let the acceleration of the first displacement = a

Acceleration of the second displacement = 2a

From the given graphs we can eliminate every graph without initial decrease or motion towards the negative direction.

The only options with initial motion towards the negative direction are;

  • <em>graph B</em>, and
  • <em>graph D</em>.

The difference between graph B and D;

  • in graph B there is a uniform motion for 6 seconds
  • in graph D there is no motion for 6 seconds (<em>this is obvious as the line fall directly on top of the horizontal axis maintaining a value of zero for 6 seconds</em>).

Thus, the only graph that accurately depict the given motion is graph D.

n a car lift used in a service station, compressed air exerts a force on a small piston that has a circular cross section of rad
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer: 1477.78 N

Explanation:

Let's assume that the cross sectional area of the smaller piston be A1

let's also assume the cross sectional area of the larger piston be A2

We assume the force applied to the smaller piston be F1

We also assume the force applied to the larger piston be F2

we then use the formula

F1/A1 = F2/A2

From our question,

The radius of the smaller piston is 5 cm = 0.05 m

The radius of the larger piston is 15 cm = 0.15 m

The force of the larger piston is 13300 N

The force of the smaller piston is unknown = F

A1 = πr² = 3.142 * 0.05² = 0.007855 m²

A2 = πr² = 3.142 * 0.15² = 0.070695 m²

F1/0.007855 = 13300/0.070695

F1 = (13300 * 0.007855) / 0.070695

F1 = 104.4715 / 0.070695

F1 = 1477.78 N

Thus, the force the compressed air must exert is 1477.78 N
