Answer:

B . x= v*cos ∅* 6.2

Explanation:

Time of flight of a projectile motion is the time taken by the object to reach the surface from when it was projected.

In this case ;

Initial launch velocity = v

Angle of launch is =∅

Time of flight = 6.2 seconds

The formula for time of flight is;

T= 2*v*sin∅ / g

At time t the displacement components for x and y are;

x= v* t * cos ∅ ----------------i

and

y =u* t * sin ∅ - 1/2 g*t² ------------ii

Taking equation i for displacement of the object in the x component

x = v* t* cos ∅

x = v * cos ∅ * 6.2

x = 6.2* v * cos ∅

Which of the following is not a way in which humans directly impact algal bloom production? a. industrial pollution b. wastewate

Monica [59]

d. fishing

The other options all directly affect algal bloom production because they affect the nutrients in the water, and an overabundance of certain nutrients in the water is what causes algal bloom.

You are standing on a sheet of ice that covers the football stadium parking lot in Buffalo; there is negligible friction between

Anni [7]

Answer:

0.074m/s

Explanation:

We need the formula for conservation of momentum in a collision, this equation is given by,

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2 = m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

Where,

$m_1$ = mass of ball

$m_2$ = mass of the person

$u_1$ = Velocity of ball before collision

$u_2$ = Velocity of the person before collision

$v_1$ = velocity of ball afer collision

$v_2$ = velocity of the person after collision

We know that after the collision, as the person as the ball have both the same velocity, then,

$v_1 = v_2$

$m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_2$

Re-arrenge to find $v_2$ ,

$v_2 = \frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2}$

Our values are,

$m_1$ = 0.425kg

$u_1$ = 12m/s

$m_2$ = 68.5kg

$u_2$ = 0m/s

Substituting,

$v_2 = \frac{(0.425)(12)+(68.5)(0)}{0.425+68.5}$

$v_2 = 0.074m/s$

<em />

<em>The speed of the person would be 0.074m/s after the collision between him/her and the ball</em>

With 51 gallons of fuel in its tank, the airplane has a weight of 2390.7 pounds. What is the weight of the plane with 81 gallons

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer: 2561.7 pounds

Explanation:

If we assume the total weight of an airplane (in pounds units) as a <u>linear function</u> of the amount of fuel in its tank (in gallons) and we make a Weight vs amount of fuel graph, which resulting slope is 5.7, we can use the slope equation of the line:

$m=\frac{Y-Y_{1}}{X-X_{1}}$ (1)

Where:

$m=5.7$ is the slope of the line

$Y_{1}=2390.7pounds$ is the airplane weight with 51 gallons of fuel in its tank (assuming we chose the Y axis for the airplane weight in the graph)

$X_{1}=51gallons$ is the fuel in airplane's tank for a total weigth of 2390.7 pounds (assuming we chose the X axis for the a,ount of fuel in the tank in the graph)

This means we already have one point of the graph, which coordinate is:

$(X_{1},Y_{1})=(51,2390.7)$

Rewritting (1):

$Y=m(X-X_{1})+Y_{1}$ (2)

As Y is a function of X:

$Y=f_{(X)}=m(X-X_{1})+Y_{1}$ (3)

Substituting the known values:

$f_{(X)}=5.7(X-51)+2390.7$ (4)

$f_{(X)}=5.7X-290.7+2390.7$ (5)

$f_{(X)}=5.7X+2100$ (6)

Now, evaluating this function when X=81 (talking about the 81 gallons of fuel in the tank):

$f_{(81)}=5.7(81)+2100$ (7)

$f_{(81)}=2561.7$ (8) This means the weight of the plane when it has 81 gallons of fuel in its tank is 2561.7 pounds.
