A pebble is thrown into the air with a velocity of 19/m at an angle of 36 with respect to the horizontal.
kow [346]

Answer:

The maximum height the pebble reaches is approximately;

A. 6.4 m

Explanation:

The question is with regards to projectile motion of an object

The given parameters are;

The initial velocity of the pebble, u = 19 m/s

The angle the projectile path of the pebble makes with the horizontal, θ = 36°

The maximum height of a projectile, h_{max}, is given by the following equation;

h_{max} = \dfrac{\left (u \times sin(\theta) \right)^2}{2 \cdot g}

Therefore, substituting the known values for the pebble, we have;

h_{max} = \dfrac{\left (19 \times sin(36 ^{\circ}) \right)^2}{2 \times 9.8} = 6.3633894140470403035477570509439

Therefore, the maximum height of the pebble projectile, h_{max} ≈ 6.4 m.

How deep can an object with 6360N hitting on a sponge get ???
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

The sponge must go \dfrac{636}{m}\ \text{meter} deep

Explanation:

If F = 6360 N, then it is required to find how deep can an object with this force hitting on a sponge get.

We know that, F = mgh

m is mass

g is acceleration due to gravity

h=\dfrac{F}{mg}\\\\h=\dfrac{6360}{10m}\\\\h=\dfrac{636}{m}\ \text{meter}

So, the sponge must go \dfrac{636}{m}\ \text{meter} deep.
