A ball is thrown up into the air with an initial velocity of 18 m/s. A) How high does the ball go? B) Calculate the time needed
kaheart [24]

Answer:

B) t = 1.83 [s]

A) y = 16.51 [m]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.

v_{f} =v_{o} -g*t

where:

Vf = final velocity = 0

Vo = initial velocity = 18 [m/s]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

t = time [s]

Note: the negative sign in the above equation means that the acceleration of gravity is acting in the opposite direction to the motion.

A) The maximum height is reached when the final velocity of the ball is zero.

0 = 18 - (9.81*t)

9.81*t = 18

t = 18/9.81

t = 1.83 [s], we found the answer for B.

Now using the following equation.

y = y_{o} + v_{o}*t - 0.5*g*t^{2}\\

where:

y = elevation [m]

Yo = initial elevation = 0

y = 18*(1.83) - 0.5*9.81*(1.83)²

y = 16.51 [m]

Testing shows that a sample of wood from an artifact contains 25% of the
daser333 [38]

Answer:

The artifact is 11,460 years old.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given that,

The half life of the carbon-14 is 5730  years and we are left with 255 of the sample of wood from an arti-fact.

So it takes 5730 years for the sample to reduce into half

Initially there will be 100% of the sample so

after first 5730 years, the sample reduces into 50% percent

Now the left 50% sample will take another 5730 years to decay into half of its amount.

after next 5730 years  the sample reduces into 25% percent

So totally after 2 half-life the sample reduces into 25%

That is (5730 +5730) years = 11460 years

The owner of a company that manufactures drinking cups decides it would be impressive to build an inground swimming pool that is
garri49 [273]

Answer:

The depth is 5.15 m.

Explanation:

Lets take the depth of the pool = h m

The atmospheric pressure ,P = 101235 N/m²

The area of the top = A m²

The area of the bottom =  a m²

Given that A= 1.5 a

The force on the top of the pool = P A

The total pressure on the bottom = P + ρ g h

ρ =Density of the  water = 1000 kg/m³

The total pressure at the bottom of the pool =  (P + ρ g h) a

The bottom and the top force is same

(P + ρ g h) a = P A

P a +ρ g h a =  P A

ρ g h a =  P A - P a

h=\dfrac{P ( A-a)}{\rho g a}

h=\dfrac{P ( 1.5 a-a)}{\rho g a}

h=\dfrac{P ( 1.5- 1)}{\rho g}

h=\dfrac{101235 ( 1.5- 1)}{1000\times 9.81}\ m

h=5.15 m

The depth is 5.15 m.

Lilit [14]

Answer:

In both cases, energy will move from an area of higher temperature to an area of lower temperature. So, the energy from room-temperature air will move into the cold water, which warms the water.
