Answer:

12.2 m/s

Explanation:

Initial momentum = final momentum

In the x direction:

(900 kg) (15.0 m/s) = (900 kg + 750 kg) vx

vx = 8.18 m/s

In the y direction:

(750 kg) (20.0 m/s) = (900 kg + 750 kg) vy

vy = 9.09

The magnitude of the velocity is therefore:

v = √(vx² + vy²)

v = 12.2 m/s

Airplane start with initial speed

v_i = 0

now the takeoff velocity is given as

v_f = 300 km/h

v_f = 83.33 m/s

acceelration is given as

a = 1 m/s^2

now we have

v_f - v_i = at

from above equation we have

83.33 - 0 = 1(t)

t = 83.33 s

#79

Airplane start with initial speed

v_i = 0

now the takeoff velocity is given as

v_f = 300 km/h

v_f = 83.33 m/s

acceelration is given as

a = 2 m/s^2

now we have

v_f - v_i = at

from above equation we have

83.33 - 0 = 2(t)

t = 41.7 s

Froghopper insects have a typical mass of around 12.5 mg and can jump to a height of 42.3 cm. The takeoff velocity is achieved a
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

2065.005 m/s²

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-0^2}{2\times h}\\\Rightarrow v^2=2ah\ m/s

Now H-h = 42.3 - 0.2 = 42.1 cm = 0.421 m

The final velocity will be the initial velocity

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow 0^2-u^2=2gs\\\Rightarrow -2ah=2\times g(H-h)\\\Rightarrow -2a0.002=2\times g0.421\\\Rightarrow a=-\frac{0.421\times -9.81}{0.002}\\\Rightarrow a=2065.005\ m/s^2

Acceleration of the frog is 2065.005 m/s²
