Which projectiles will be visibly affected by air resistance when they fall?
NemiM [27]
Any object that is launched as a projectile will lose speed and, as a result, altitude, as it travels through the air. The rate at which the object loses speed and altitude depends on the amount of force that way applied to it when it was launched. It is also dependent on the size and shape of the item. This is why something like, say, a football is much faster to fall to the ground than a bullet.

8 The diagram shows four identical spheres placed between two wooden blocks on a ruler.
enyata [817]

The diameter of the sphere is 2cm.

<h3>How to calculate the diameter?</h3>

From the diagram, the first sphere on the ruler is at 4cn and the last sphere is at 12cm.

Therefore, the length will be:

= 12 - 4.

= 8cm

The diameter of one sphere will be:

= Length / 4

= 8/4

= 2

Therefore, the diameter of the sphere is 2cm.

Note that the second question wasn't found online.

A child walks due east on the deck of a ship at 2 miles per hour. the ship is moving north at a speed of 18 miles per hour. find
garik1379 [7]
Refer to the figure shown below.

The velocity of the child and the velocity of the ship should be added vectorially to find the speed and direction of the child relative to the water surface.

The magnitude of the child's velocity is
v = √(2² + 18²) = 18.11 mph

The direction of the child's speed is
θ = tan⁻¹ (18/2) = tan⁻¹ 9 = 83.7° north of east or counterclockwise from the eastern direction.

Answer:
The magnitude is 18.1 mph.
The direction is 84° north of east.

A 26 foot ladder is lowered down a vertical wall at a rate of 3 feet per minute. The base of the ladder is sliding away from the
lakkis [162]

Answer:

(i) 7.2 feet per minute.

(ii) No, the rate would be different.

(iii) The rate would be always positive.

(iv) the resultant change would be constant.

(v) 0 feet per min

Explanation:

Let the length of ladder is l, x be the height of the top of the ladder from the ground and y be the length of the bottom of the ladder from the wall,

By making the diagram of this situation,

Applying Pythagoras theorem,

l^2 = x^2 + y^2-----(1)

Differentiating with respect to t ( time ),

0=2x\frac{dx}{dt} + 2y\frac{dy}{dt}  ( l = 26 feet = constant )

\implies 2y\frac{dy}{dt} = -2x\frac{dx}{dt}

\implies \frac{dy}{dt}=-\frac{x}{y}\frac{dx}{dt}

We have,

y = 10, \frac{dx}{dt}= -3\text{ feet per min}

\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{3x}{10}-----(X)

(i) From equation (1),

26^2 = x^2 + 10^2

676=x^2 + 100

576 = x^2

\implies x = 24\text{ feet}

From equation (X),

\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{3\times 24}{10}=7.2\text{ feet per min}

(ii) From equation (X),

\frac{dy}{dt}\propto x

Thus, for different value of x the value of \frac{dy}{dt} would be different.

(iii) Since, distance = Positive number,

So, the value of y will always a positive number.

Thus, from equation (X),

The rate would always be a positive.

(iv) The length of the ladder is constant, so, the resultant change would be constant.

i.e. x = increases ⇒ y = decreases

y = decreases ⇒ y = increases

(v) if ladder hit the ground x = 0,

So, from equation (X),

\frac{dy}{dt}=0\text{ feet per min}

Help me with this???
Vikentia [17]

Yo sup??

Average velocity=total distance covered/total time taken

total distance covered=4 + 8=12 miles

total time taken=6 hours

Therefore

average velocity=12/6

=2 miles/hour

Hope this helps
