A rock is dropped off a cliff and falls the first half of the distance to the ground in 2.0 seconds. how long will it take to fa
son4ous [18]

Answer:

The answer is 0.83 seconds.

Explanation:

The formula of free fall is following:

h=1/2*g*t^2

Where g=9.8 m/s^2 and t=2 seconds, the rock takes:

h=1/2*9.8*2^2=19.6

19.6 meters. This is the half distance of the cliff. The whole distance is 39.2 meters. So it takes:

39.2=1/2*9.8*t^2\\t^2=8\\t=2.83

2.83 second to fall down completely. The rock takes the second half of the cliff in 0.83 seconds

Rick shoots a basketball at an angle of 35' from the horizontal. It leaves his hands 7 feet from the ground with a velocity of 2
Korvikt [17]

Given:

The angle of projection of the basketball, θ=35°

The height at which the ball leaves the hand, h=7 ft

The initial velocity of the basketball, v=20 ft/s

To find:

The parametric equations describing the shot.

Explanation:

The range, x of the basketball is given by,

x=v\cos\theta t

On substituting the known values,

\begin{gathered} x=20\times\cos35\degree\times t \\ \implies x=16.4t \end{gathered}

The change in the height, y of the basketball is given by,

y=-v\sin\theta t+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Where g is the acceleration due to gravity.

On substituting the known values,

\begin{gathered} y=-20\times\sin35\degree\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times32\times t^2 \\ \implies y=-11.5t+16t^2 \end{gathered}

Final answer:

The parametric equations describing the shot are

\begin{gathered} \begin{equation*} x=16.4t \end{equation*} \\ \begin{equation*} y=-11.5t+16t^2 \end{equation*} \end{gathered}

7. How many 1.00 µF capacitors must be connected in parallel to store a charge of 1.00 C with a potential of 110 V across the ca
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

q = C V    charge on 1 capacitor

q = 1 * 10E-6 * 110 = 1.1 *  10E-4  C per capacitor

N = Q / q = 1 / 1.1 * 10E-4  = 9091 capacitors

HELP. A river flows South with a speed of 8m/s. From the shore, you see a boat moving South with a speed of 10 m/s. From their f
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

18 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of river is 8 m/s due South

From the shore, you see a boat moving South with a speed of 10 m/s. Both boat and river are moving in same direction. The resultant velocity will add up.

v = 10 m/s + 8 m/s

v = 18 m/s

Hence, the rowers are moving with a speed of 18 m/s.
