g You are walking around your neighborhood and you see a child on top of a roof of a building kick a soccer ball. The soccer bal

l is kicked at 37° from the edge of the building with an initial velocity of 21 m/s and lands 63 meters away from the wall. How tall, in meters, is the building that the child is standing on?

Answer:

h = 21.5 m

Explanation:

  • First of all, we define a pair of coordinate axes along the horizontal and vertical direction, calling x-axis to the horizontal and y-axis to the vertical, with the origin in the point where the ball is kicked.
  • Neglecting air resistance, the only influence on the ball once kicked is due to gravity, so the ball is accelerated by the Earth with a constant value of -9.8 m/s2 (assuming the upward direction as positive).
  • So, we can use the kinematic equation for displacement for the vertical direction, as follows:

       \Delta y = v_{oy}* t -\frac{1}{2}*g*t^{2}   (1)

  • Since the ball is kicked at an angle of 37º from the edge of the building, at an initial velocity of 21 m/s, we can find the horizontal and vertical initial speeds as follows:

       v_{ox} = v* cos 37 = 21 m/s * cos 37 = 16.8 m/s (2)

       v_{oy} = v* sin 37 = 21 m/s * sin 37 = 12.6 m/s (3)

  • In the horizontal direction, since gravity has no component in this direction, the ball moves at a constant speed, equal to v₀ₓ.
  • Applying the definition of average velocity, since we know the horizontal distance traveled, we can find the total time that the ball was in the air, as follows:

       t = \frac{\Delta x}{v_{ox} }  = \frac{63m}{16.8m/s} = 3.75 s (4)

  • Replacing (4) and (3) in (1), we can find the total vertical displacement, which is equal to the height of the building, as follows:

     -h = 12.6m/s* 3.75s -\frac{1}{2}*(9.8m/s2)*(3.75s)^{2} = -21.5 m (5)

  • ⇒ h = -(-21.5m) = 21.5 m

Imagine that there is a small rocky body caught by Earth’s gravity. Draw a comic-strip cartoon
vladimir1956 [14]

To create this comic strip you can use a narration describing each step and illustrate each one with one image or drawing.

Creating a comic strip involves using images and short texts to explain a specific idea or phenomenon. In the case of the process for a meteor to enter Earth you can use the following ideas.

  • A meteoroid approaches the Earth at high speed and draw a meteor traveling near to different planets and approaching Earth.
  • What is that? and draw the Earth wondering who or what is approaching.
  • The meteoroid enters the atmosphere of the Earth and becomes a meteor and draw the rocky body burning
  • The rocky body crashes with the surface becoming a meteorite and draw the zone where the meteorite crashed.

A tall, cylindrical chimney falls over when its base is ruptured. Treat the chimney as a thin rod of length 53.2 m. At the insta
rusak2 [61]
From an energy balance, we can use this formula to solve for the angular speed of the chimney

ω^2 = 3g / h sin θ

Substituting the given values:
ω^2 = 3 (9.81) / 53.2 sin 34.1
ω^2 = 0.987 /s

The formula for radial acceleration is:
a = rω^2

So,
a = 53.2 (0.987) = 52.494 /s^2

The linear velocity is:
v^2 = ar
v^2 = 52.949 (53.2) = 2816.887

The tangential acceleration is:
a = r v^2
a = 53.2 (2816.887)
a = 149858.378 m/s^2

If the tangential acceleration is equal to g:
g = r^2 3g / sin θ
Solving for θ
θ = 67°

If you were in charge of designing a wire to carry electricity across your city, state or province, which of
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Thin, aluminium and buried underground.

Explanation:

When it comes to electrification of a state or province, some characteristics of the wire to use must be considered. This would help to minimize and avoid power loss and wire burns.

i. The wire to use should be thin, and a quite number can be twisted one against the other so as to increase the surface area for heat dissipation.

ii. Aluminium wire is more preferable for this project. It has a high melting point, and reduces energy loss.

iii. Burying the wire underground through an insulator is the best choice, though expensive but would preserve the wire from external influence.
