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.

She does 200J .

We know she uses 20N of force and 10m is the distance. We multiply both numbers and we are given our answer of 200J. Hope this was helpful. :)

Answer:

Deductive

Explanation:

Deductive reasoning or logic is the form of logic where the reasoning process from which the conclusion is reached is based on one or more premises. Deductive logic, is a top down logic, where premises are linked with conclusion, such that true premises give a true conclusion which is reached by a process of narrowing the focus based on certainty

The question bases the conclusion on the premise that the Big Bang theory which is based on scientific evidence is several billions of years old and if the theory is correct the universe <em>(as it is today)</em> was not created six days
