Three cannons are located at the top of a cliff above a level plain. Cannon A is aimed at an angle of 25° above the horizontal a

nd shoots cannonballs with a speed of 85 m/s. Cannon B is aimed directly horizontally and shoots with a speed of 100 m/s. Cannon C is aimed 25° below the horizontal and shoots with a speed of 75 m/s. Which of the cannonballs will hit the ground with the greatest speed? The three cannonballs are not necessarily the same mass.

Answer:

The canon B hits the ground fast.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of cannon A = 85 m/s

Speed of cannon B= 100 m/s

Speed of cannon C = 75 m/s

We need to calculate the cannonballs will hit the ground with the greatest speed

Using conservation of energy

The final kinetic energy of canon depends on initial kinetic energy and potential energy.

The  final velocity depends upon initial velocity and initial height.

So,  the initial velocity of canon B is high.

Hence, The canon B hits the ground fast.

A bus accelerates to 60 m/s to the east in 10 s. What is the buses acceleration? 2. A car traveling at 10.0 m/s to the west acce

Answers:

1) a=6\frac{m}{s^{2}}

2) t=8s

Explanation:

1) Acceleration a is defined as the variation of Velocity V in time t :  

a=\frac{V}{t}  (1)

A body also has acceleration when it changes its direction.

In this case we have a bus with a velocity of 60m/s to the east, that accelerates in a time 10s. So, we have to find the bus's acceleration:

a=\frac{60m/s}{10s}  (2)

a=6m/s^{2}  (3)  This is the bus's accelerration

2) Now we have a car that accelerates 2m/s^{2}  to the west in order to reach a speed of 16m/s in the same direction, and we have to find the time t it takes to the car to reach that velocity.

Therefore we have to find  t from (1):

t=\frac{V}{a}  (4)

t=\frac{16m/s}{2m/s^{2}}  (5)

Finally:

t=8s  (6)

Find the interest. A 105-day note for $14,200 at 8.5% interest.
mr Goodwill [35]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

$347.22

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

Principal = $14,200

Rate = 8.5%

Time = 105 days = 105/365

Interest = Principal x Rate x Time

Interest = 14,200 x 0.085 x 105/365

Interest = 347.219

             = $347.22

How many times a minute does your heart usually beat?
ycow [4]

Answer:

60-100

Explanation:

A normal resting heart rate for adults ranges from 60 to 100 beats per minute. Generally, a lower heart rate at rest implies more efficient heart function and better cardiovascular fitness.

Does this curved graph show a function explain how you know
pochemuha

Answer:

No; the graph fails the vertical line test.

The vertical line test is a tool used to determine if we have a function. If we can draw a single straight vertical line through more than one point on the red curve, then the graph is said to have failed the vertical line test. Consequently, this leads to the relation not being a function.

For this circle graph, we can draw a vertical line through more than one point, which is why we don't have a function here.

Put another way, there are inputs (x) that produce more than one output (y), so that's why we don't have a function.
