A place-kicker must kick a football from a point 36.0 m (about 40 yards) from the goal. half the crowd hopes the ball will clear

the crossbar, which is 3.05 m high. when kicked, the ball leaves the ground with a speed of 23.9 m/s at an angle of 51.5 degrees to the horizontal. (a) by how much does the ball clear or fall short of clearing the crossbar?
(b) does the ball approach the crossbar while still rising or while falling?

Explanation:

Let's calculate the components of the football's velocity:

v_{0x} = (23.9\:\text{m/s})\cos{51.5°} = 14.9\:\text{m/s}

v_{0y} = (23.9\:\text{m/s})\sin{51.5°} = 18.7\:\text{m/s}

a) The time it takes for the football to travel 36.0 m horizontally is

t = \dfrac{x}{v_{0x}} = \dfrac{36.0\:\text{m}}{14.9\:\text{m/s}} = 2.4\:\text{s}

During this time, the y-displacement of the football is

y = v_{0x}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

\:\:\:\:= (18.7\:\text{m/s})(2.4\:\text{s}) - \frac{1}{2}(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)(2.4\:\text{s})^2

\:\:\:\:= 16.7\:\text{m}

This means that the football cleared the crossbar by 16.7 m - 3.05 m = 13.7 m

b) To determine whether the football was rising or falling while clearing the crossbar, let's look at the y-component of its velocity after 2.4 s:

v_y = v_{0y} - gt = 18.7\:\text{m/s} - (9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)(2.4\:\text{s})

\:\:\:\:\:\:= -4.82\:\text{s}

Since its sign is negative, this means that the football was already on its way down.

Why is hydroelectric power considered to be an example of multiple transfers of energy?
Radda [10]
Hydroelectric power is considered to be an example of multiple transfers of energy because potential energy when the water is in the reservoir turns into kinetic energy making the water move to the dam and then the dam moves into the turbine turning it to electric energy.

A gas, behaving ideally, has a pressure P1 and at a volume V1. The pressure of the gas is changed to P2. Using Avogadro’s, Charl
Bond [772]

Answer:

Boyle's Law

\therefore P_1.V_1=P_2.V_2

Explanation:

Given that:

<u><em>initially:</em></u>

pressure of gas, = P_1

volume of gas, = V_1

<em><u>finally:</u></em>

pressure of gas, = P_2

volume of gas, = V_2

<u>To solve for final volume</u> V_2

<em>According to Avogadro’s law the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to the no. of moles of the gas under a constant temperature and pressure.</em>

<em>According to the Charles' law, at constant pressure the volume of a given mass of an ideal gas is directly proportional to its temperature.</em>

But here we have a change in the pressure of the Gas so we cannot apply Avogadro’s law and Charles' law.

Here nothing is said about the temperature, so we consider the Boyle's Law which states that <em>at constant temperature the volume of a given mass of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.</em>

Mathematically:

P_1\propto \frac{1}{V_1}

\Rightarrow P_1.V_1=k\ \rm(constant)

\therefore P_1.V_1=P_2.V_2
