While watching a small fireworks display from a building 204 feet tall, you observe a rocket that travels from ground to eye lev

el in 6 seconds, and explodes. What is the maximum speed that you can guarantee that the rocket reached?

204 ft = 62.2 m
We know that the initial velocity of the rocket was 0, we can find its acceleration using:
s = ut + 1/2 at²
62.2 = 0.5a(6)²
a = 3.46 m/s²
Now, the final velocity of the rocket:
v = u + at
v = 3.46 x 6
v = 20.76 m/s = 68.1 ft/s

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The speed is 6.1m/s with an angle of 56.3 degrees north of east.

Explanation:

We meed to apply the Linear momentum theorem:

m1*vo1+m2*vo2=m1*vf1+m2*vf2\\60*(8.0m/s(East))+80*(9.0m/s(North))=140*vf\\vf=3.4m/s(East)+5.1m/s(North)

The magnitude of the velocity is given by:

v=\sqrt{Veast^2+Vnorth^2} \\v=6.1m/s

and the angle:

\alpha =arctg(\frac{Vnorth}{Veast})\\\alpha=56.3^o

1. if an egg has a mass of .1k and its dropped from a height of 5 meters, calculate its potential energy at the top
Nataly_w [17]

Answer: (a) 5Joules

(b) 10m/s

(c) 1.0kgm/s

(d) 33.3N

Explanation:

(a) P E = mass * gravity * height

= 0.1*10*5 = 5Joules

(b) All PE is converted to KE

Therefore;

KE = 1/2 * mass * velocity^2

5 = 1/2 * 0.1 * v^2

V = sqrt(100)

v = 10m/s

(c) change in momentum = mass * velocity

= 0.1 * 10

= 1.0kgm/s

(d) impulse = change in momentum

Change in momentum = force * time

1.0 = force * 0.03

Force = 1.0/0.03

Force = 33.3N

Therefore, the force acting on the egg is 33.3N

Which of the following is a common human relations mistake?
lys-0071 [83]
The correct answer should be A. Misjudging others' abilities

Taking responsibility when you make a mistake and listening to your supervisor are a must in the adult world while saying thank you is not a mistake but rather a trait. Misjudging others' abilities can sometimes even be offensive and is common as a mistake.

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

According to Newton's 2nd law

The force acting on a body produces acceleration in its direction which is directly propotional to the force but inversly propotinal to the mass of tbe body.

Explanation:

a = F/m

F = ma

Where( F) is force (m) is mass and (a) is acceleration.
