A heavy book is launched horizontally out a window from the first floor, a height, h, above the ground, with initial velocity, v

0, and it hits the ground a horizontal distance X1 away from the window. Another book is similarly launched (same initial velocity) from the second floor window, a height 2h above the ground. Where does the second book land relative to the first book

Answer:

x₂ / x₁ = √2

Explanation:

To solve this exercise we can use the projectile launch ratios, let's find the time it takes for the second book to reach the ground

             y = y₀ + v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

as the book is thrown horizontally v_{oy} = 0, when it reaches the ground its height is zero y= 0

            0 = y₀ - ½ g t²

            t = \sqrt{    \frac{2y_o}{ g} }

            t = \sqrt{    \frac{2 \ 2h}{ g} }

with this time we calculate the horizontal distance traveled

            x = v₀ t

            x₂ = v₀ \sqrt{  \frac{4h}{g} }

now let's calculate the time it takes him to get to the floor when he leaves from the first floor

           t =\sqrt{    \frac{2y_o}{ g} }

the horizontal distance traveled is

           x₁ = v₀ \sqrt{ \frac{2h}{g} }

therefore the difference in distance between the two runs is

           Δx = x₂-x₁

           Δx = v₀ \sqrt{ \frac{4h}{g} } - v₀ \sqrt{ \frac{2h}{g} }

            Δx = v₀ \sqrt{ \frac{2h}{g} }    √2

            Δx =√2    x₁

the relationship between the two distances is

             x₂ / x₁ = √2

I'm confusion, can I please get help???
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Anything below 7.0 is acidic, so the range would be 0 to 7.

Neutral is simply 7, in the middle of the scale.

Lastly, anything above 7.0 is basic or alkaline, so that would be 7 to 14.

Good luck, I hope this helps

How much work would be needed to raise the payload from the surface of the moon (i.e., x = r) to an altitude of 5r miles above t
Cloud [144]

Let the data is as following

mass of payload = "m"

mass of Moon = "M"

now we know that we place the payload from the position on the surface of moon to the position of 5r from the surface

So in this case we can say that change in the gravitational potential energy is equal to the work done to move the mass from one position to other

so it is given by

W = U_f - U_i

we know that

U_f = -\frac{GMm}{6r}

U_i = -\frac{GMm}{r}

now from above formula

W = -\frac{GMm}{6r} + \frac{GMm}{r}

W = \frac{5GMm}{6r}

so above is the work done to move the mass from surface to given altitude
