Answer:

Most polymers, including poly(ethene) and poly(propene) are not biodegradable . This means that microorganisms cannot break them down, so they: cause a litter problem if disposed of carelessly. last for many years in landfill sites.

A tennis player hits a ball 2.0 m above the ground. The ball leaves his racquet with a speed of 20 m/s at an angle 5.0 ∘ above t
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

initial height, yo = 2 m

initial velocity, u = 20 m/s

angle of projection,θ = 5 degree

distance of net = 7 m

height of net = 1 m

Let it covers a vertical distance y in time t .

Use Second equation of motion for vertical motion

y=y_{0}+uSin\theta t-1/2 gt^{2}

y=2+20Sin5 t-4.9t^{2}

As it hits the ground in time t, so put y = 0

0=2+1.74 t-4.9t^{2}

4.9t^{2}-1.74t-2=0

t= \frac{1.74\pm\sqrt{1.74^{2}+4\times\2\times4.9}}{9.8}

Taking positive sign, t = 0.84 s

The ball travels a horizontal distance x in time t

X = 20 Cos5 x t

X =  16.76 m

As this distance is more than the distance of net, so it clears the net.

Let t' be the time taken to travel a horizontal distance equal to the distance of net

7 = 20 cos5 x t'

t' = 0.35 s

Let the vertical distance traveled by the ball in time t' is y'.

So,

y'=y_{0}+uSin\theta t'-1/2 gt'^{2}

y'=2+20Sin5 t-4.9\times0.35^{2}

y' = 2.008 m

So, it clears the net which is 1 m high.

It clears the net by a vertical distance of 2.008 - 1 = 1.008 m and horizontal distance 16.76 - 7 = 9.76 m

A ship, carrying freshwater to a desert island in the caribbean, has a horizontal cross-sectional area of 2800 m2 at the waterli
Alex17521 [72]
<span>Due that we already know the horizontal cross-sectional area of the ship, which is 2800 m2 and we are going to understand that value keeps constant for the whole 9.5 of height of the ship from the waterline till the new waterline after unloading, then we just need to calculate the volume as follows: V = A * H , where V is volume, A is area and H is height V= 2,800 * 9.5 = 26,600 m3 So this volum of 26,600 cubic meters is the volum of freshwater delivered in the island.</span>
