You are part of a searchand- rescue mission that has been called out to look for a lost explorer. You’ve found the missing explo

rer, but you're separated from him by a 200- m -high cliff and a 30- m -wide raging river. To save his life, you need to get a 5.6 kg package of emergency supplies across the river. Unfortunately, you can't throw the package hard enough to make it across. Fortunately, you happen to have a 0.70 kg rocket intended for launching flares. Improvising quickly, you attach a sharpened stick to the front of the rocket, so that it will impale itself into the package of supplies, then fire the rocket at ground level toward the supplies. What minimum speed must the rocket have just before impact in order to save the explorer’s life?

Answer:

v_r = 42.3 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that the width of the river is given as

w = 30 m

now the height is given as

h = 200 m

now by kinematics we have

h = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

200 = \frac{1}[2}(9.81)t^2

t = 6.38 s

now the speed required to cross the river is given as

v = \frac{w}{t}

v = \frac{30}{6.38}

v = 4.7 m/s

now we can use momentum conservation to find the speed of rocket just before collision

m_r v_r = (m_r + m) v

0.70(v_r) = (5.6 + 0.70)(4.7)

v_r = 42.3 m/s

Answer:

I think they use it at night because they want to avoid involving themselves in road accident while crossing the street. When there are reflective strips on their clothes, drivers do notice them even at far ends of the street since the strips will reflect the rays from the car lights to the driver,hence, the driver notifies that there is a pedestrian crossing and therefore slows down.

Recessed incandescent luminaires not marked type ic and those marked for installing directly in ___________ must not have insula
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Recessed incandescent luminaires not marked type ic and those marked for installing directly in insulated ceilings must not have insulation over the top of the luminaire.

Explanation:

Depending on how they interact with insulation, lighting fixtures are rated at various levels. Non-IC rated lighting fixtures can accommodate higher wattage bulbs, but they also pose the greatest fire risk when used with the incorrect insulation.

In locations with insulation, light fixtures that are not IC rated may be installed. But there is a condition. The distance between the fixture and any insulation should be 3 inches. But the 3 inch gap in the insulation would negate the goal of insulation by producing a lot of uninsulated space, so this defies logic. Building a box-style cover to cover the fixture on the attic side is one option to fix this. Drywall or foil-faced foam insulation can be used to create this box. After the cover is put in place, insulation can be added for maximum effectiveness.
