Answer:

Explanation:

The question relates to time of flight of a projectile .

Time of flight = 2 u sinθ / g

u is speed of projectile , θ is angle of projectile

= 2 x 48.5 sin42 / 9.8

= 6.6 seconds  .

Maximum height attained

= u² sin²θ / g

= 48.5² sin²42 / 9.8

= 107.47 m .

andreev551 [17]

-- As far as we know, the forces on the wheelbarrow are balanced.

-- That tells us that the net force on the wheelbarrow is zero, just
as if there were no forces acting on it at all.

-- That tells us that the wheelbarrow's acceleration is zero ... its
speed and direction of motion are not changing.

-- That tells us that the wheelbarrow is moving in a straight line
at a constant speed.  It's very possible that relative to us, the speed
may be zero, but we can't tell that from the given information.

The force F required to compress a spring a distance x is given by F 2 F0 5 kx where k is the spring constant and F0 is the prel
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

a)W=8.333lbf.ft

b)W=0.0107 Btu.

Explanation:

<u>Complete question</u>

The force F required to compress a spring a distance x is given by F– F0 = kx where k is the spring constant and F0 is the preload. Determine the work required to compress a spring whose spring constant is k= 200 lbf/in a distance of one inch starting from its free length where F0 = 0 lbf. Express your answer in both lbf-ft and Btu.

Solution

Preload = F₀=0 lbf

Spring constant k= 200 lbf/in

Initial length of spring x₁=0

Final length of spring x₂= 1 in

At any point, the force during deflection of a spring is given by;

F= F₀× kx  where F₀ initial force, k is spring constant and x is the deflection from original point of the spring.

W=\int\limits^2_1 {} \, Fds \\\\\\W=\int\limits^2_1( {F_0+kx} \,) dx \\\\\\W=\int\limits^a_b {kx} \, dx ; F_0=0\\\\\\W=k\int\limits^2_1 {x} \, dx \\\\\\W=k*\frac{1}{2} (x_2^{2}-x_1^{2}  )\\\\\\W=200*\frac{1}{2} (1^2-0)\\\\\\W=100.lbf.in\\\\

Change to lbf.ft by dividing the value by 12 because 1ft=12 in

100/12 = 8.333 lbf.ft

work required to compress the spring, W=8.333lbf.ft

The work required to compress the spring in Btu will be;

1 Btu= 778 lbf.ft

?= 8.333 lbf.ft----------------cross multiply

(8.333*1)/ 778 =0.0107 Btu.

Edwin Hubble calculated the expansion rate of the universe. On what evidence did he base his calculation?
algol [13]

Edwin Hubble calculated the expansion rate of the universe. The evidence that he base his calculation is the differences in redshift for galaxies. The answer is letter B. the red shift of galaxies was directly proportional to the distance of the galaxy from earth.  It means that bodies farther away from Earth were moving away faster. The Hubble’s constant is the ratio of distance to redshift equal to 170 kilometers per second per light year of distance.

An injured monkey sits perched on a tree branch 3.0 m above the ground, while a wildlife veterinarian is kneeling down in the bu
Irina18 [472]

here in the given situation if monkey starts free fall at the same instant when veterinarian shoots towards it then we know that vertical component of motion of monkey and the dart will be same as under gravity

so here the dart will always hit the monkey because they both moves under same acceleration

so here for the angle we can use

tan\theta = \frac{H}{L}

now we have

H = 3 m

L = 87.5 m

now we will have

tan\theta = \frac{3}{87.5}

tan\theta = 0.034

\theta = 1.96 degree

so angle will be 1.96 degree above the ground
