Two golf balls are hit from the same point on a flat field. Both are hit at an angle of 55 degree above the horizontal. Ball 2 h

as twice the initial speed of ball 1. If ball 1 lands a distance d_1 from the initial point, at what distance d_2 does ball 2 land from the initial point? (Neglect any effects due to air resistance.)
d_2 = d_1
d_2 = 4d_1
d_2 = 8d_1
d_2 = 0.5d_1
d_2 = 2d_1

Answer:

d_2 = 4d_1

Explanation:

The range or horizontal distance covered by a projectile projected with a velocity U at an angel of θ to the horizontal is given by

R = U²sin2θ/g

Let the range or horizontal distance of ball 1 with initial velocity U projected at an angle θ = 55° be

d_1 = U²sin2θ/g

Let the range or horizontal distance of ball 2 with initial velocity V = 2U projected at an angle θ = 55° be

d_2 = V²sin2θ/g

= (2U)²sin2θ/g

= 4U²sin2θ/g

= 4d_1   (since d_1 = U²sin2θ/g)

So, the ball 2 lands a distance d_2 = 4d_1 from the initial point.

She wants to travel back to Madison by train. The distance from Chicago to Madison is 147 miles and takes 2.47 hours. If she mak
levacccp [35]

Answer:

59.51 mph.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Distance (d) = 147 miles

Time (t) = 2.47 hours.

Speed (S) =?

Speed is defined as the distance travelled per unit time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Speed (S) = Distance (d) / time (t)

S = d/t

With the above formula, we can obtain the speed of the girl as illustrated below:

Distance (d) = 147 miles

Time (t) = 2.47 hours.

Speed (S) =?

S = d/t

S = 147 miles / 2.47 hours.

S = 59.51 miles per hour (mph)

Thus, the speed of the girl is 59.51 mph.

Higher temperatures along with moisture climates generally increase the rate of
Bad White [126]

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

Weathering refers to the disintegration of rocks due to the different geological processes that are initiated by agents such as wind, water and ice.

In a region where the temperature is high, and there is sufficient amount of moisture content in the air, there occurs high rate of physical, chemical and biological type of weathering.

  • Physical weathering processes such as freeze-thaw method and exfoliation method commonly occurs in this type of region.
  • Chemical weathering processes such as hydrolysis, oxidation, as well as carbonation method occurs in the region of high temperature, moist climatic condition.
  • Biological weathering also is possible up to some extent as the plants takes up water from the rainfall and also receive enough sunlight for its growth, as a result of which it leads to the breakdown of rocks.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

A flare is launched from a boat. The height, , in meters, of the flare above the water is approximately modelled by the function
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

10 seconds

Explanation:

If the height is modeled by the function h(t)=-15t^{2} +150t, then the seconds it takes to reach the water (when the height equals 0) is modeled by the following.

0=-15t^{2} +150t\\0=-15t*(t-10)\\\\t=0\\t=10
