Answer: The height of the cliff is 104.59 m

Explanation:

The horizontal speed of the car when it leaves the cliff is 13 m/s, and it hits the ground 60m from the shoreline.

Here we can use the relationship:

Time*Speed = Distance.

To find the time that the car is in the air, we know that:

speed = 13m/s

distance = 60m

time = T

13m/s*T = 60m

T = (60m)/13m/s = 4.62 s

This means that the car is falling for 4.62 seconds.

Now let's analyze the vertical problem.

As the car leaves the cliff, it only has horizontal velocity, this means that the vertical initial velocity will be zero

The only force acting in the vertical axis is the gravitational force, this means that the acceleration will be equal to the gravitational acceleration, which is:

g = 9.8m/s^2

then:

a = -9.8m/s^2

Where the negative sign is because the acceleration is pulling the car downwards.

To get the vertical velocity, we could integrate over time to get:

v(t) = (-9.8m/s^2)*t + v0

Where v0 is the constant of integration and the initial vertical velocity, that we already know that is equal to zero, then the vertical velocity as a function of time can be written as:

v(t) = (-9.8m/s^2)*t

To get the vertical position equation, we need to integrate again over the time:

P(t) = (1/2)*(-9.8m/s^2)*t^2 + H

Where H is the constant of integration and the initial vertical position, then H will be the height of the cliff.

We know that the car needs 4.62 seconds to hit the ground, this means that:

P(4.6s) = 0m

Then:

P(t) = (1/2)*(-9.8m/s^2)*(4.62s)^2 + H = 0

            (-4.9m/s^2)*(4.62s)^2 + H = 0

          H =  (4.9m/s^2)*(4.62s)^2 = 104.59 m

This means that the cliff is 104.59 meters high

If a trapezoidal channel has side slopes of 1:1, hydraulic depth is 5 feet, the bottom width is 8 feet, flow is 2,312 cubic feet
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

S = \dfrac{1}{2.5}

Explanation:

given,

side slope = 1 : 1

hydraulic depth(y) = 5 ft

bottom width (b)= 8 ft

x = 1

Q = 2,312 ft³/s

n = 0.013

slope of channel = ?

R = \dfrac{A}{P}

R = \dfrac{y(b + xy)}{b+2y\sqrt{1+x^2}}

R = \dfrac{5(8+ 5)}{8+2\times 5\sqrt{1+1^2}}

R = 4.69 m

using manning's equation

Q = \dfrac{1}{n}AR^{2/3} S^{1/2}

2312= \dfrac{1}{0.013}\times (5(8+5))\times 4.69^{2/3} S^{1/2}

2312=14009.37\times S^{1/2}

S = 0.406

S = \dfrac{1}{2.5}

1. Most waves are caused by vibrations. What motion in a transmitting antenna causes the vibrations that produce radio waves?
morpeh [17]
The answer 1 is
The best-known use of radio waves is for communication; television, cellphones and radios all receive radio waves and convert them to mechanical vibrations in the speaker to create sound waves that can be heard.Electromagnetic radiation is transmitted inwaves or particles at different wavelengths and frequencies.

the answer 2 is

Radio Waves: Instant Communication
Microwaves: Data and Heat

i think the answer number 3 is
It is all about wavelength versus tunnel diameter. The wavelength of GPS is about 20cm it would happily propagate in any normal tunnel if it could get in but the earth and other structures absorb it. AM radio (600kHz - 1500kHz) cannot propagate in any normal tunnel because the wavelength is too long (500m-200m) relative to the diameter, and thus gets reflected at the entrance. FM (100MHz ~ 3m) would propagate and it does for a while but then it suffers reflections

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

1,920 Joules

Explanation:

K.E. = 1/2  mv2

so  K.E. =  1/2 (60)(8x8) = 1,920 Joules

Explain why, under some circumstances, it is not advisable to weld a structure that is fabricated with a 3003 aluminum alloy. Hi
Scorpion4ik [409]

The 3003 aluminum alloy is made up of 1.25% Magnesium and 0.1% Copper. This combination is designed to increase the strength of the material over other types of alloys such as those of the 1000 series. This alloy provides a medium strength and can be educated by cold work.

The alloy is not heat treatable and generally has good formability, corrosion resistance and weldability.

However, being a material that hardens by cold work, welding a 3003 Aluminum structure will cause the body to undergo recrystallization which will generate a loss in the 'resistance' of the material and the force capable of withstanding. If this aluminum will be used for structural purposes, it should not be welded. It would be better to perform the structure with a 6061 aluminum, which has similar characteristics and is not so affected by welding.
