John accidentally drops his keys off the balcony at his apartment. John's friend Tony just happens to walk by at that moment and

EleoNora [17]

Explanation:

In order to find out if the keys will reach John or not, we can use the formula of projectile motion to find the maximum height reached by the keys:

H = V²Sin²θ/2g

where,

V = Launch Speed = 18 m/s

θ = Launch Angle = 40°

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

H = (18 m/s)²[Sin 40°]²/(2)(9.8 m/s²)

H = 6.83 m

Hence, the maximum height that can be reached by the projectile or the keys is greater than the height of John's Balcony(5.33 m).

Therefore, the keys will make it back to John.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

1.73 m/s²

3.0 cm

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the yo-yo. There are two forces: weight force mg pulling down, and tension force T pulling up 10° from the vertical.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

T cos 10° − mg = 0

T cos 10° = mg

T = mg / cos 10°

Sum of forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

T sin 10° = ma

mg tan 10° = ma

g tan 10° = a

a = 1.73 m/s²

Draw a free body diagram of the sphere. There are two forces: weight force mg pulling down, and air resistance D pushing up. At terminal velocity, the acceleration is 0.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

D − mg = 0

D = mg

½ ρₐ v² C A = ρᵢ V g

½ ρₐ v² C (πr²) = ρᵢ (4/3 πr³) g

3 ρₐ v² C = 8 ρᵢ r g

r = 3 ρₐ v² C / (8 ρᵢ g)

r = 3 (1.3 kg/m³) (100 m/s)² (0.47) / (8 (7874 kg/m³) (9.8 m/s²))

r = 0.030 m

r = 3.0 cm

A tray of electronic components contains 15 components, 4 of which are defective. If 4 components are selected, what is the poss

dlinn [17]

Answer:

a) 0.0007326

b) 0.03223

c) 0.2418

d) 0.2418

Explanation:

To find different probabilities for the selection of components among eleven good and four defective components, we will use the Combination.

a) $C(4,4) = 1; C(15,4) = 1365$

$P = \frac{C(4,4)}{C(15,4)} = \frac{1}{1365} = 0.0007326$

b) $C(4,3) = 4; C(11,1) = 11$

$P = \frac{C(4,3)*C(11,1)}{C(15,4)} = \frac{4*11}{1365} = 0.03223$

c) $C(4,2) = 6; C(11,2) = 55$

$P = \frac{C(4,2)*C(11,2)}{C(15,4)} = \frac{6*55}{1365} = 0.2418$

d) $C(11,4) = 330$

$P = \frac{C(11,4)}{C(15,4)} = \frac{330}{1365} = 0.2418$

A 4.3-kg block slides down an inclined plane that makes an angle of 30° with the horizontal. Starting from rest, the block slide

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

0.56

Explanation:

Let the coefficient of friction is μ.

m = 4.3 kg, θ = 30 degree, initial velocity, u = 0, s = 2.7 m, t = 5.8 s

By the free body diagram,

Normal reaction, N = mg Cosθ = 4.3 x 9.8 x Cos 30 = 36.49 N

Friction force, f = μ N = 36.49 μ

Net force acting on the block,

Fnet = mg Sinθ - f = 4.3 x 9.8 x Sin 30 - 36.49 μ

Fnet = 21.07 - 36.49μ

Net acceleartion, a = Fnet / m

a = (21.07 - 36.49μ) / 4.3

use second equation of motion

s = ut + 1/2 a t^2

2.7 = 0 + 1/2 x (21.07 - 36.49μ) x 5.8 x 5.8 / 4.3

By solving we get

μ = 0.56
