When solving projectiles you will often get two possible times for solutions. Sometimes a time will be negative and can be rejec

ted. Other times both times will be positive and therefore possible. Explain why both times above make sense in the context of the given information used. Which time will you ultimately choose and why?
Context is attached below.

Answer:

The reason why times, 0.23 s, and 1.80 s makes sense is that a projectile passes through a given height level, which is lesser than the maximum height reached by the projectile, twice in its trajectory

Explanation:

The formula for the time of motion of a projectile is given as follows;

t = \dfrac{-V_{oy} \pm \sqrt{V_{oy} ^2 - 2 \cdot g \cdot  \Delta y} }{-g}

Therefore, when V_{oy} ^2 = 2 \cdot g \cdot  \Delta y}, we have only one time value

When V_{oy} ^2 > 2 \cdot g \cdot  \Delta y}, two time values can be obtained and both will be positive when we have;

V_{oy} > \sqrt{V_{oy} ^2 - 2 \cdot g \cdot  \Delta y} }

When V_{oy} < \sqrt{V_{oy} ^2 - 2 \cdot g \cdot  \Delta y} }, one of the time values will be negative and can be rejected

Therefore, given that the times obtained above are 1.80 s, and 0.23 s, and both make sense due to the following reason;

In the path of the projectile motion of the basketball, there are two points in time at which the height of the basketball above the starting point is exactly 2 meters, given that the maximum height reached is more than 2 meters

The first time the basketball is 2 meters above the point it is shot is lesser of the two calculated time values, which is during the upward motion of the basketball before it reaches the maximum height, while the second time is, which is the larger calculated time, is the time that the basketball reaches the hoop, after flying past the highest point

Answer:

6 gallons

Explanation:

At 30 mph, the fuel mileage is 25 mpg.

After 5 hours, the distance traveled is:

30 mi/hr × 5 hr = 150 mi

The amount of gas used is:

150 mi × (1 gal / 25 mi) = 6 gal

What is the frictional force between a box and the floor it is being pulled across if, the kinetic coefficient of friction is 0.
Artyom0805 [142]

If the pulling is done parallel to the floor with constant velocity, then the box is in equilibrium. In particular, the weight and normal force cancel, so that

<em>n</em> = 38 N

The friction force is proportional to the normal force by a factor of 0.27, so that

<em>f</em> = 0.27 (38 N) ≈ 10.3 N

and so the answer is D.
