A basketball referee tosses the ball straight up for the starting tip-off. At what velocity must a basketball player leave the g

round to rise 1.15 m above the floor in an attempt to get the ball

Answer:

the basketball player must leave the ground with a velocity of 4.748 m/s

Explanation:

Given that data in the question;

From the third equation of motion;

v² - u² = 2as

such that;

u² = v² - 2as

where u is the initial velocity, v is the final velocity, s is the displacement and a is acceleration

so initial velocity of the basket ball player will be;

u = √( v² - 2as )

so from the question; s is 1.15 m and a = - 9.8 m/s² { player is under negative acceleration to get to the ball } and final velocity of the player will be 0.

so we substitute

u = √( (0)² - (2 × -9.8 × 1.15 )

u = √ -( - 22.54 )

u = √ ( 22.54 )

u = 4.748 m/s

Therefore, the basketball player must leave the ground with a velocity of 4.748 m/s

While running at a constant velocity, how should you throw a ball with respect to you so that you can catch it yourself?
timurjin [86]
You are running at constant velocity in the x direction, and based on the 2D definition of projectile motion, Vx=Vxo. In other words, your velocity in the x direction is equal to the starting velocity in the x direction. Let's say the total distance in the x direction that you run to catch your own ball is D (assuming you have actual values for Vx and D). You can then use the range equation, D= (2VoxVoy)/g, to find the initial y velocity, Voy. g is gravitational acceleration, -9.8m/s^2. Now you know how far to run (D), where you will catch the ball (xo+D), and the initial x and y velocities you should be throwing the ball at, but to find the initial velocity vector itself (x and y are only the components), you use the pythagorean theorem to solve for the hypotenuse. Because you know all three sides of the triangle, you can also solve for the angle you should throw the ball at, as that is simply arctan(y/x).

An object travels at a speed of 7500 cm/sec . how far will it travel in kilometers in one day
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

6480 km

Explanation:

The speed of the object is

v = 7500 cm/sec

We need to convert centimetres into kilometers and seconds into days. We have:

1 cm = 1\cdot 10^5 km

1 s = \frac{1}{60\cdot 60 \cdot 24}d

Using these conversion factors, we find:

v=7500 \frac{cm}{s} \cdot 1\cdot 10^{-5} \frac{km}{cm}\cdot (24)(60)(60) \frac{s}{d}=6480 km

4 A magnet can exert a force of attraction or a force of repulsion on another magnet.
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Push -repulsion

Pull - attraction

Explanation:

When two magnets are brought together, a push happens when a force of repulsion is experienced where the magnets move away from each other. This means their polarity is the same and this will cause the magnet to push away from each other.

When two magnets are brought together , a pull happens when a force of attraction is experienced where the magnets move close to each other. This means their polarity is different and thus causes the magnets to pull closer to each other.
