The motion of the ball is a composition of two motions:
- on the x (horizontal) axis, it is a uniform motion with initial velocity v_x = 1.0 m/s
- on the y (vertical) axis, it is a uniformly accelerated motion with acceleration g= 9.81 m/s^2 

(a) to solve this part, we just analyze the motion on the vertical axis. The law of motion here is
y(t) = h - \frac{1}{2} gt^2
By requiring y(t)=0, we find the time t at which the ball reaches the floor:
h- \frac{1}{2}gt^2=0
t= \sqrt{ \frac{2h}{g} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2\cdot 2.0 m}{9.81 m/s^2} }=0.64 s

(b) for this part, we can analyze only the motion on the horizontal axis. To find how far the ball will land, we must calculate the distance covered on the x-axis, x(t), when the ball reaches the ground (so, after a time t=0.64 s):
x(t) = v_x t = (1.0 m/s)(0.64 s)=0.64 m

At the accounting break-even point, Swiss Mountain Gear sells 22,940 ski masks at a price of $19 each. At this level of producti
gogolik [260]

Answer:

fixed cost $231220

Explanation:

given data:

quantity of skl mask = 22,940

skl mass rate = $19 each

variable cost = $6 per unit

therefore

Contribution/unit of ski mask  = 19 - 6 = $13

for 22940 ski masks, total cost =  (22940*13) =  298220

Depreciation cost  $67000

fixed cost is = 298220 - 67000 = $231220
