Answer:

2\sqrt{55}\text{ m/s or }\approx 14.8\text{m/s}

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical component of the initial launch can be found using basic trigonometry. In any right triangle, the sine of an angle is equal to its opposite side divided by the hypotenuse. Let the vertical component at launch be y. The magnitude of 40\text{ m/s} will be the hypotenuse, and the relevant angle is the angle to the horizontal at launch. Since we're given that the angle of elevation is 60^{\circ}, we have:

\sin 60^{\circ}=\frac{y}{40},\\y=40\sin 60^{\circ},\\y=20\sqrt{3}(Recall that \sin 60^{\circ}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})

Now that we've found the vertical component of the velocity and launch, we can use kinematics equation v_f^2=v_i^2+2a\Delta y to solve this problem, where v_f/v_i is final and initial velocity, respectively, a is acceleration, and \Delta y is distance travelled. The only acceleration is acceleration due to gravity, which is approximately 9.8\:\mathrm{m/s^2}. However, since the projectile is moving up and gravity is pulling down, acceleration should be negative, represent the direction of the acceleration.

What we know:

  • v_i=20\sqrt{3}\text{ m/s}
  • a=-9.8\:\mathrm{m/s^2}
  • \Delta y =50\text{ m}

Solving for v_f:

v_f^2=(20\sqrt{3})^2+2(-9.8)(50),\\v_f^2=1200-980,\\v_f^2=220,\\v_f=\sqrt{220}=\boxed{2\sqrt{55}\text{ m/s}}

A bowl of Halloween candy has 17 Kit-Kats, 23 Hershey bars, 11 Starbursts, and 14 Skittles packets.
gladu [14]

Answer:

a.) 8/13 = 0.6154.

b) 11/65 = 0.1692

c.) 0.0267

d.) 0.0222

Step-by-step explanation:

firstly, we determine total number of candies.

17 kit kat(K)+ 23 hershey(H) + 11 starburst(B) + 14 skittles(S) = 65 candies.

Since, Probability = favourable outcome / possible outcome.

With replacement,

a.) probability of chocolate candy (kitkat or hershey) = 17/65 or 23/65

= 17/65 + 23/65

=40/65 = 8/13

b.) probability of selecting a starburst = 11/65

When without replacement:,

c) 2 kit kats, 1 skittles as first three picks and one chocolate candy as the last pick, = [KKSK], [KSKK], [SKKK], [KKSH], [KSKH], [SKKH]

[(17/65 * 16/64 * 14/63 * 15/62) × 3] + [(17/65 * 16/64 * 14/63 * 23/62) ×3]

Note: first bracket and fourth brackets are multiplied by 3 because the value of the first bracket is same for the first three brackets and the second three brackets also have the same values.

Re:chocolate candy means either KitKat or Hershey.

=[(51720/16248960) × 3] + [(87584/16248960) ×3]

=0.0105 +0.0162

= 0.0267.

d.) 1 kitkat, 1 skittles and 1 hershey as first 3 picks and one Starburst as the last pick.

= [KSHB], [KHSB], [SKHB], [SHKB], [HKSB], [HSKB]

= [(17/65 * 14/64 * 23/63 * 11/62) × 6]

note: multiplied by 6 because we will have the same value for all 6 brackets

= 60214/16248960 * 6

= 0.0222.
