Use the data to answer the question.<br><br><br><br> Which statement best describes the data?

Natasha2012 [34]

A statement which best describes the data is that: C. they are precise and reproducible.

<h3>What is an experiment?</h3>

An experiment can be defined as a scientific investigation which typically involves the process of manipulating an independent variable (the cause), so as to determine or measure the dependent variable (the effect).

Data can be defined as a representation of instructions or factual information in a formalized manner, especially as a series of binary digits (bits) or samples that are used by scientist in an experiment or research.

<h3>The types of data.</h3>

Generally, there are two (2) main types of data and these include:

Primary data

Secondary data

Based on the data provided in the table (see attachment), we can infer and logically deduce that a statement which best describes the data is that they are precise and reproducible.

4. A ball is thrown with an initial speed vi at an angle θi with the horizontal. The

Disclaimer: I ended up finding what's asked for in the reverse order (e)-(a).

At time $t$ , the horizontal position $x$ and vertical position $y$ of the ball are given respectively by

$x = v_i \cos(\theta_i) t$

$y = v_i \sin(\theta_i) t - \dfrac g2 t^2$

and the horizontal velocity $v_x$ and vertical velocity $v_y$ are

$v_x = v_i \cos(\theta_i)$

$v_y = v_i \sin(\theta_i) - gt$

The ball reaches its maximum height with $v_y=0$ . At this point, the ball has zero vertical velocity. This happens when

$v_i \sin(\theta_i) - gt = 0 \implies t = \dfrac{v_i \sin(\theta_i)}g$

which means

$y = \dfrac R6 = v_i \sin(\theta_i) \times \dfrac{v_i \sin(\theta_i)}g - \dfrac g2 \left(\dfrac{v_i \sin(\theta_i)}g\right)^2 \\\\ \implies R = \dfrac{6{v_i}^2 \sin^2(\theta_i)}g - \dfrac{3{v_i}^2 \sin^2(\theta_i)}g \\\\ \implies R = \dfrac{3{v_i}^2 \sin^2(\theta_i)}g$

At the same time, the ball will have traveled half its horizontal range, so

$x = \dfrac R2 = v_i \cos(\theta_i) \times \dfrac{v_i \sin(\theta_i)}g \\\\ \implies R = \dfrac{2{v_i}^2 \cos(\theta_i) \sin(\theta_i)}g$

Solve for $v_i$ and $\theta_i$ :

$\dfrac{3{v_i}^2 \sin^2(\theta_i)}g = \dfrac{2{v_i}^2 \cos(\theta_i) \sin(\theta_i)}g \\\\ \implies 3 \sin^2(\theta_i) = 2 \cos(\theta_i) \sin(\theta_i) \\\\ \sin(\theta_i) (3\sin(\theta_i) - 2 \cos(\theta_i)) = 0$

Since $0^\circ$ , we cannot have $\sin(\theta_i)=0$ , so we're left with (e)

$3 \sin(\theta_i) - 2\cos(\theta_i) = 0 \\\\ \implies 3 \sin(\theta_i) = 2\cos(\theta_i) \\\\ \implies \tan(\theta_i) = \dfrac23 \\\\ \implies \boxed{\theta_i = \tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac23\right) \approx 33.7^\circ}$

Now,

$\cos\left(\tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac23\right)\right) = \dfrac3{\sqrt{13}}$

$\sin\left(\tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac23\right)\right) = \dfrac2{\sqrt{13}}$

so it follows that (d)

$R = \dfrac{2{v_i}^2 \times\frac3{\sqrt{13}} \times \frac2{\sqrt{13}}}g \\\\ \implies {v_i}^2 = \dfrac{13Rg}{12} \\\\ \implies \boxed{v_i = \sqrt{\dfrac{13Rg}{12}}}$

Knowing the initial speed and angle, the initial vertical component of velocity is (c)

$v_y = \sqrt{\dfrac{13Rg}{12}} \sin\left(\tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac23\right)\right) \\\\ \implies v_y = \sqrt{\dfrac{13Rg}{12}} \times \dfrac2{\sqrt{13}} \\\\ \implies \boxed{v_y = \sqrt{\dfrac{Rg}3}}$

We mentioned earlier that the vertical velocity is zero at maximum height, so the speed of the ball is entirely determined by the horizontal component. (b)

$v_x = \sqrt{\dfrac{13Rg}{12}} \times \dfrac3{\sqrt{13}} \\\\ \implies v_x = \dfrac{\sqrt{3Rg}}{2}$
