Answer: The two places altitudes are: 16.17 m and 40.67 m

Explanation:

Hi!

Lets call z to the vertical direction (z= is ground) . Then the positions of the balloon and the pellet, using the values of the velocities we are given, are:

z_b =\text{balloon position}\\z_p=\text{pellet position}\\z_b=(7\frac{m}{s})t\\z_p=30\frac{m}{s}(t-t_0)-\frac{g}{2}(t-t_0)^2\\g=9.8\frac{m}{s^2}

How do we know the value of t₀? This is the time when the pellet is fired. At this time the pellet position is zero: its initial position. To calculate it we know that the pellet is fired when the ballon is in z = 12m. Then:

t_0=\frac{12}{7}s

We need to know the when the z values of balloon and pellet is the same:

z_b=z_p\\(7\frac{m}{s})t =30\frac{m}{s}(t-\frac{12}{7}s)-\frac{g}{2}(t-\frac{12}{7}s)^2

We need to find the roots of the quadratic equation. They are:

t_1=2.31s\\t_2=5.81

To know the altitude where the to objects meet, we replace the time values:

z_1=16,17m\\z_2=40,67m

Two cars travel westward along a straight highway, one at a constant velocity of 85 km/h, and the other at a constant velocity o
spayn [35]

To solve letter a:

d1 = 85t1 = 16 km, 
85t1 = 16, 
t1 = 16 / 85 = 0.1882 h = 11.29 min. 

d2 = 115t2 = 16 km, 
115t2 = 16, 
t2 = 16 / 115 = 0.139 h = 8.35 min. 

t1 - t2 = 11.29 - 8.35 = 2.94 min. 
Car #2 arrives 2.94 minutes sooner.

To solve letter b:

15 min = 1/4 h = 0.25 h. 
d1 = d2, 
115t = 85(t + 0.25), 
115t = 85t + 21.25, 
115t - 85t = 21.25, 
30t = 21.25, 
t = 21.25 / 30 = 0.71 h, 

d = 115 * 0.71 = 81.65 km.

Vlada [557]

Answer:

Vmax=11.53 m/s

Explanation:

from conservation of energy

      E_A} =E_{B}

     Spring potential energy =potential energy due to elevation

   0.5*k*x²= mg(h_{B}-h_{A} )=mgh

   0.5*k*2.3²= 430*9.81*6

         k=9568.92 N/m

For safety reason

                                 k"=1.13 *k= 1.13*9568.92

                                    k"=10812.88 N/m

agsin from conservation of energy

      E_A} =E_{C}

    spring potential energy=change in kinetic energy

   0.5*k"*x²=0.5*m*V_{max}^{2}

      10812.88 *2.3²=430*V_{max}^{2}

           V_{max}=11.53 m/s

Calculate the magnitude of the gravitational force between Goku with a mass of 62 kg and King Kai’s planet with a mass of 1.458x
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

6227.866 N

Explanation:

F = G . m(goku) . m(planet) / d²

F = 6.674 x 10-¹¹ x 62 x 1.458 . 10¹⁵ / 31²

F = 6227.866 N

A car travels 40 miles in 30 minutes.
lukranit [14]

Answer:

(a)Average velocity ,v =128.74 Km/hr

(b)Kinetic Energy , K=958546.875 Joule

(c)Distance, s=268.8m

(d)Acceleration, a= - 2.38 m/s^2

<u>Explanation</u>:

<u>Given</u>:

Distance travelled = 40 miles

Time taken = 30 minutes.

(A) The average velocity in kilometres/hour

Converting 40 miles into km ,

we know that,

1 mile = 1.60934

40 miles =  40 x 1.60934

so 40 miles  =  64.3738 Km

similarly converting 30 minutes into hours

1 minute = \frac{1}{60}hours

30 minute = \frac{30}{60}hours

30 minute = \frac{1}{2}hours

Now

Average velocity = \frac{Speed}{time}

Substituting Values,

Average velocity = \frac{64.3738}{\frac[1}{2}}

Average velocity = 64.3738 \times 2

Average velocity =128.74 Km/hr

(B) If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its kinetic energy in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)? in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)?

Converting 1.5 tons into kg we get

1 ton = 1000 kg

so 1.5 ton =1500 kg

converting  velocity to m/s

128.74  \times \frac{5}{18}

=>35.75 m/s----------------------------------------------------------(1)

kinetic energy  K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Substituting the values,

K= \frac{1}{2}1500(35.75)^2

K= \frac{1}{2}1500(1278.06)

K= \frac{1500 \times (1278.06)}{2}

K= \frac{1917093.75}{2}

K=958546.875 Joule---------------------------------------------(2)

(c)When the driver applies the brake, it takes 15 seconds to stop. How far does the car travel (in meters) while stopping

Lets use Distance formula,

S= ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

Substituting the known values,

s= ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

s= (37.75)(15)+\frac{1}{2}a(15)^2

s=566.25+\frac{1}{2}a(225)

s=566.25+\frac{(225a)}{2}-------------------------------------(3)

(D) What is the average acceleration of the car (in m/s2) during braking?

Using the formula

v=u +at

re arranging the formula we get,

a = \frac{v - u}{t}

Substituting the values

a = \frac{0 - 35.75}{15}

a = \frac{- 35.75}{15}

a= - 2.38 m/s^2----------------------------------------(4)

Now substituting 4 in 3 we get

s=566.25+\frac{(225( - 2.38)}{2}

s=566.25+\frac{-535.5}{2}

s=536.25-267.75

s=268.8m--------------------------------------------------------------(5)
