Answer:

t = S / V = 3.8E8 / 3E8 = 1.3 sec

You shoot an arrow into the air. Two seconds later (2.00 s) the arrow has gone straight upward to a height of 35.0 m above its l

sdas [7]

This question can be solved by using the equations of motion.

a) The initial speed of the arrow is was "9.81 m/s".

b) It took the arrow "1.13 s" to reach a height of 17.5 m.

We will use the second equation of motion to find out the initial speed of the arrow.

$h= v_it + \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\$

where,

vi = initial speed = ?

h = height = 35 m

t = time interval = 2 s

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Therefore,

$35\ m = (v_i)(2\ s)+\frac{1}{2}(9.81\ m/s^2)(2\ s)^2\\\\v_i(2\ s)=19.62\ m\\\\v_i = \frac{19.62\ m}{2\ s}$

To find the time taken by the arrow to reach 17.5 m, we will use the second equation of motion again.

$h= v_it + \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\$

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = height = 17.5 m

vi = initial speed = 9.81 m/s

t = time = ?

Therefore,

$17.5 = (9.81)t+\frac{1}{2}(9.81)t^2\\4.905t^2+9.81t-17.5=0$

solving this quadratic equation using the quadratic formula, we get:

t = -3.13 s (OR) t = 1.13 s

Since time can not have a negative value.

Therefore,

Answer:

Explanation:

No because like my other answer if we put to many diesels on it it will crack and little by little it will break eventually everyone will come tumbling into the water making them drown because they can't get the buckles loose or they wanted to save their families lives
