Answer: 17.68 s

Explanation:

This problem is a good example of Vertical motion, where the main equation for this situation is:  

y=y_{o}+V_{o}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2} (1)  

Where:  

y=0 is the height of the ball when it hits the ground  

y_{o}=70 m is the initial height of the ball

V_{o}=82m/s is the initial velocity of the ball  

t is the time when the ball strikes the ground

g=9.8m/s^{2} is the acceleration due to gravity  

Having this clear, let's find t from (1):  

0=70m+(82m/s)t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8m/s^{2})t^{2} (2)  

Rewritting (2):

-\frac{1}{2}(9.8m/s^{2})t^{2}+(82m/s)t+70m=0 (3)  

This is a quadratic equation (also called equation of the second degree) of the form at^{2}+bt+c=0, which can be solved with the following formula:

t=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}  (4)

Where:

a=-\frac{1}{2}(9.8m/s^{2}

b=82m/s

c=70m

Substituting the known values:

t=\frac{-82 \pm \sqrt{82^{2}-4(-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(70)}}{2a}  (5)

Solving (5) we find the positive result is:

t=17.68 s

12345 [234]

When I become a CEO (Chief Executive Officer) of a large company (like Amazon or Tesla), I would make the company more humane, with great parameters of working conditions, paying good salaries, so we would improve production and people would be happier , being an example to the whole world of a company that values and respects its employees.

<h3>Who is the CEO?</h3>

The CEO is essentially the highest-ranking executive in the company. He has most of the power. He reports directly to the board of directors. On the other hand, the president is below the CEO in the company hierarchy.

<h3>What does the CEO of a company do?</h3>

Direct the company's next steps through strategic planning; Take care, together with directors and shareholders of the company's health; Implement or modify processes within the company or sectors; Represent and relate to external audiences.

With this information, we can conclude that  I would make the company more humane, with great parameters of working conditions

A distant large asteroid is detected that might pose a threat to Earth. If it were to continue moving in a straight line at cons
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The minimum speed required is 5.7395km/s.

Explanation:

To escape earth, the kinetic energy of the asteroid must be greater or equal to its gravitational potential energy:

K.E\geq P.E

or

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 \geq  G\dfrac{Mm}{R}

where m is the mass of the asteroid, R= 24,000,000\:m is its distance form earth's center, M = 5.9*10^{24}kg is the mass of the earth, and G = 6.7*10^{-11}m^3/kg\: s^2 is the gravitational constant.

Solving for v we get:

v \geq \sqrt{\dfrac{2GM}{R} }

putting in numerical values gives

v \geq \sqrt{\dfrac{2(6.7*10^{-11})(5.9*10^{24})}{(24,000,000)} }

\boxed{v\geq 5739.5m/s}

in kilometers this is

v\geq5.7395m/s.

Hence, the minimum speed required is 5.7395km/s.

Which of the following correctly describes the relative air pressure at the center of a hurricane, with respect to the horizonta
vampirchik [111]

Explanation:

The pressure of hurricane which is high decreases gradually as we move higher . The pressure is maximum at the surface . Hence the relative air pressure is higher at the surface and low at the top . Like wise the pressure is low at the center and keeps on increasing when we move outside . Hence the answer is pressure is high at surface and low aloft.

An object rotates about a fixed axis, and the angular position of a reference line on the object is given by θ = 0.220e3t, where
OLga [1]

Answer:a_{t}=3.96

a_{c}=0.8712

Explanation:

Given

\theta =0.220e^{3t}

r=2cm

Now angular velocity is given by \omega =\frac{\mathrm{d}\theta}{\mathrm{d}t}

\omega =0.66e^{3t}

Now linear velocity(v) is given =\omega r

v=1.32e^{3t}

Now tangential component of acceleration is given by

a_{t}=\frac{\mathrm{d}\vec{v}}{\mathrm{d}t}=3.96e^{3t}

at t=0

a_{t}=3.96cm/s^2

radial component of acceleration is given by

a_{c}=\omega ^{2}r

a_{c}=0.4356e^{6t}\times 2

a_{c}=0.8712e^{6t} cm/s^{2}

at t=0

a_c=0.8712 cm/s^{2}
