Salmon often jump waterfalls to reach their breeding grounds. Starting downstream, 3.04 m away from a waterfall 0.585 m in heigh

t, at what minimum speed must a salmon jumping at an angle of 41.7 ◦ leave the water to continue upstream? The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s 2 . Answer in units of m/s.

Answer:

V₀ = 5.47 m/s

Explanation:

The jumping motion of the Salmon can be modelled as the projectile motion. So, we use the formula for the range of projectile motion here:

R = V₀² Sin 2θ/g

where,

R = Range of Projectile = 3.04 m

θ = Launch Angle = 41.7°

V₀ = Minimum Launch Speed = ?

g = 9.81 m/s²

Therefore,

3.04 m = V₀² [Sin2(41.7°)]/(9.81 m/s²)

V₀² = 3.04 m/(0.10126 s²/m)

V₀ = √30.02 m²/s²

<u>V₀ = 5.47 m/s</u>

Which of the following energy sources is expected to have the least growth in the next 20 years?
Rama09 [41]

Answer;

A. hydroelectricity

Explanation;

A nonrenewable resource is a resource of economic value that cannot be readily replaced by natural means on a level equal to its consumption. Most fossil fuels, such as oil, natural gas and coal are considered nonrenewable resources in that their use is not sustainable because their formation takes billions of years.

-Renewable resources are resources which are being continuously consumed by man but are renewed by nature constantly are called as Renewable Resources. These resources are inexhaustible because they cannot be exhausted permanently.  Some examples of renewable energy sources are solar energy, wind energy, hydropower, geothermal energy, and biomass energy.

A force of 500 N is used to slide a box across a smooth surface; the box moved 5 m in 1.2 seconds. What power is used?
Katen [24]
F = 500N
S = 5m
T = 1.2s
----------------------------------
P = ?

We can use formula P = F * V, just because it was a smooth slide we can assume that average speed was V = S/T = 5 / 1.2 = 50/12

So the final answer would be:

P = F * V = 500 * 50/12

Are you sure those are correct numbers? The answer don't look nice :D
