An 80- quarterback jumps straight up in the air right before throwing a 0.43- football horizontally at 15 . How fast will he be

moving backward just after releasing the ball? Suppose that the quarterback takes 0.30 to return to the ground after throwing the ball. How far d will he move horizontally, assuming his speed is constant?

Answer:

a)

the quarterback will be moving back at speed of 0.080625 m/s

b)

the distance moved horizontally by the quarterback is 0.0241875 m or 2.41875 cm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a)

How fast will he be moving backward just after releasing the ball?

using conservation of momentum;

m₁v₁ = m₂v₂

v₂ = m₁v₁ / m₂

where m₁ is initial mass ( 0.43 kg )

m₂ is the final mass ( 80 kg )

v₁ is the initial velocity ( 15 m/s )

v₂ is the final velocity

so we substitute

v₂ = ( 0.43 × 15 ) / 80

v₂ = 6.45 / 80

v₂ = 0.080625 m/s

Therefore, the quarterback will be moving back at speed of 0.080625 m/s

b) Suppose that the quarterback takes 0.30 to return to the ground after throwing the ball. How far d will he move horizontally, assuming his speed is constant?

we make use of the relation between time, distance and speed;

s = d/t

d = st

where s is the speed ( 0.080625 m/s )

t is time ( 0.30 s )

so we substitute

d = 0.080625 × 0.30

d = 0.0241875 m or 2.41875 cm

Therefore, the distance moved horizontally by the quarterback is 0.0241875 m or 2.41875 cm

The vacuum pressure of a condenser is given to be 80 kpa. if the atmospheric pressure is 98 kpa, what is the gage pressure and a

dimaraw [331]

The absolute pressure is given by the equation,

$P_{abs}=P_{atm}-P_{vac}$

Here, $P_{abs}$ is absolute pressure, $P_{atm}$ is atmospheric pressure and $P_{vac}$ is vacuum pressure.

Therefore,

$P_{abs}=98 kPa-80 kPa=18kPa$

The gage pressure is given by the equation,

$P_{gage}=P_{abs}-P_{atm}$ .

Thus,

$P_{gage}=18kPa-98 kPa=-80 kPa$ .

In kn/m^2,

The absolute pressure,

$P_{abs}=18kPa(\frac{1kN/m^2}{kPa}) =18\ kN/m^2$

The gage pressure,

$P_{gage}=-80kPa(\frac{1kN/m^2}{kPa}) =-80\ kN/m^2$ .

In lbf/in2

The absolute pressure,

$P_{abs}=18\ kPa(\frac{1.45\times 10^{-1}\ lbf/in^2 }{1kPa} )=2.6\ lbf/in^2$

The gage pressure,

$P_{gage}=-80kPa(\frac{1.45\times 10^{-1}\ lbf/in^2 }{1kPa} )=-11.6\ lbf/in^2$

In psi,

The absolute pressure,

$P_{abs}=18\ kPa(\frac{1.45037738\times 10^{-1}\ psi }{1kPa})=2.610\ psi$ .

The gage pressure,

$P_{gage}=-80kPa(\frac{1.45037738\times 10^{-1}\ psi }{1kPa} )=-11.6030\ psi$

In mm Hg

The absolute pressure,

$P_{abs}=18kPa(\frac{7.5\ mm\ of\ Hg }{1\ kPa})= 135\ mm\ of\ Hg$

The gage pressure,

$P_{gage}=-80kPa(\frac{7.5\ mm\ of\ Hg }{1\ kPa})=-600\ mm\ of\ Hg$

Why is the escape speed for a spacecraft independent of the spacecraft's mass?

scoray [572]

In order to escape the gravitational pull of our planet, any object must have an escape velocity of 7 km/s or more, anything lower than that will be slowed down by the pull of gravity, and will eventually returned to the surface of our planet. It is independent of mass, any lighter or heavier object must attain the required escaped velocity to reach space.

Two charges +q and -q are situated at certain distance, at the point exactly midway betwee them what happens on electric field a

Luden [163]

Answer: Electric field is not zero but potential is zero

Explanation:

In science, charge, also recognized as electric charge, electrical charge, or electrostatic charge and expressed q, is a component of a unit of body that reveals the extent to which it has more or fewer electrons than protons.

Considering the direction of the electric field is of positive to negative charge. Therefore, it determination be toward due −q also due to both the charges.

But for potential, it is a scalar quantity, so the sum of potential due to all the charges will be zero.

Henceforth, the option (c) Electric field is not zero but potential is zero is the correct answer.

a incorect

From the above statements, we could conclude that option (c) Electric field is not zero, but potential is zero is the correct answer. So, the option (a) Electric field and potential both are zero is an incorrect solution.

b incorect

Among all the options, the option (c) Electric field is not zero but potential is zero is the correct answer.

Therefore, the option (b) Electric field is zero but potential is not zero is an incorrect solution

d) is incorrect

It has been explained that the option (c) Electric field is not zero but potential is zero is the correct answer.

Hence, the option (d) Electric field is not zero but potential is zero is an incorrect solution.

A ball is thrown upward at a 45° angle. Inthe absence of air resistance, the ballfollows aA. tangential curve.B. sine curve.C. p

Evgesh-ka [11]

As ball is projected up in air at an angle of 45 degree without any air resistance

Let the initial speed will be v

now we will have

In x direction

$v_x = v cos45$

in y direction

$v_y = vsin45$

now displacement in x direction

$x = (vcos45)t + 0$

displacement in y direction

$y = (vsin45)t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

now from above two equations we have

$y = (vsin45)\frac{x}{vcos45} - \frac{1}{2}g(\frac{x}{vcos45})^2$

$y = xtan45 - \frac{1}{2v^2cos^245}gx^2$

so above equation is a quadratic equation and hence it will be a parabolic curve

so correct answer will be

<em>C. parabolic curve.</em>
