Answer:-24,5m/s

Explanation: what we have here is a UALM with these gravity as acceleration (-9.8 m/s^2). The initial position is 25 m and initial speed is 10m/s.

Speed and gravity are increasing in the opposite direction, speed upwards and gravity downwards, while the position is also upwards, depending on your reference system.

The first thing I need to know is the maximum high it will reach.

Hmax=- S(0)^2/2g=

S= speed.

0= initial

G= gravity

Hm= 100/19,6= 5.1 m

So, the ball will go 5,1 m higher than the initial position, and from there it will fall free.

Then, I need to know how long it takes to fall. For that we use UALM equation:

X(t)= X(0) + S(0)*t + (A*t^2)/2.

X: position

S: speed

A: acceleration

T:time

0: initial

0 = 25m +10*t -(9.8 * t^2)/2

Solving the quadratic equation we get

T= 3,5 sec. ( Negative value for time is impossible)

So now we know that the ball to go up and then fall needs 3,5 sec.

Let's see how long it takes to go up:

30,1=25+10*t-4,9*t^2

0=-5,1+10*t-4,9*t^2

T= 1 sec. So it will take 1 sec to the ball to reach the maximum high and 0=speed and then it'll fall during the resting 2,5 sec

Finally, to know the speed just before it touches the ground, we use the following formula:

A= (St-S0)/t

-9.8m/s^2 = (St- 0m/s)/ 2,5s

-24,5 m/s= St

-24,5 m/s is the speed at 3,5 sec, which is the time just before falling

Bambi the young dear was distracted Buy butterfly and jumped into the road in front of the two vehicles as shown in the diagram
bagirrra123 [75]

Speed of car A is given as

v_a = 70 mph

now we need to convert it into SI units

1 miles = 1609 m

1 hour = 3600 s

now we have

v_a = 70 *\frac{1609}{3600} = 31.3 m/s

now its distance from Bambi is given as

d_a = 350 m

time taken by it to hit the Bambi

t = \frac{d}{v}

t = \frac{350}{31.3}

t = 11.2 s

Now other car is moving at speed 50 mph

so its speed in SI unit will be

v_b = 50* \frac{1609}{3600}

v_b = 22.35 m/s

now its distance from Bambi is given as

d_b = 590 feet

as we know that 1 feet = 0.3048 m

d_b = 590*0.3048 = 179.83 m

now the time to hit the other car is

t_2 = \frac{179.83}{22.35}

t_b = 8.05 s

So Car B will hit the Bambi first

The orbiting of the moon around the Earth can be explained by
HACTEHA [7]
When talking about orbits, it would have to be a mixture of both A. and B. since Newton's first law, gravity plays a huge part in an orbit. However, the universal gravitation law also tells us the relationship between two massive objects in orbit. But to choose only one, it would have to be B. Newton's first law

Vector ~A has a negative x-component 3.07 units in length and a positive y-component 3.17 units in length. When a vector ~B = b1
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

a. 3.07 b. 1.26

Explanation:

Given that A = -3.07i + 3.17j and B = b1i + b1j and C = A + B = 0i + 4.43j

Since A + B = -3.07i + 3.17j + b1i + b2j

= (-3.07 + b1)i + (3.17 + b2)j

So,(-3.07 + b1)i + (3.17 + b2)j = 0i + 4.43j

Comparing components,

-3.07 + b1 = 0 (1) and 3.17 + b2 = 4.43 (2)

a. From (1), b1 = 3.07

b. From(2) b2 = 4.43 - 3.17 = 1.26

The curve below shows the percentage of population of aquatic species that die in response to doses of pollutant A:
Elis [28]

Based on the trend produced by the dose - response graph, it would be best to evacuate the residents in other to prevent the increasing percentage of deaths due to the rising level of pollutant A.

  • The curve shows that the pollutant level in mg/kg of pollutant A is still increasing, hence, groundwater monitoring alone won't be the best decision to make.

  • Since the pollutant level is still increasing, then the spill level still need effective monitoring.

  • Evacuation of residents seems to be the best decision that should be taken based on the information interpreted on the graph.

Therefore, Evacuating residents to prevent rising death percentage is required as the pollutant level is yet to subside.

PLEASE EXPLAIN.
kvasek [131]
Explain a police role, and how important it is. also you can explain a mayor's role and how important it is...

A police's role in the community is to protect us and make sure that everyone is following the rules. it is important for a police to be there so we can be safe. Their status is fair enough. Another Example is a mayor. a mayor's job is to improve the city/ the community. His status is high. There are many people around us that help us, each with a different status.
