C and D are units of length or distance.
A is a measured angle.
B is a unit of angular measurement.
Answer:
(a) Vf = 128 ft/s
(b) K.E = 122.8 Btu
Explanation:
(a)
In order to find the velocity of the object just before striking the surface of earth or the final velocity, we use 3rd equation of motion:
2gh = Vf² - Vi²
where,
g = 32.2 ft/s²
h = height = 253 ft
Vf = Final Velocity = ?
Vi = Initial Velocity = 10 ft/s
Therefore,
(2)(32.2 ft/s²)(253 ft) = Vf² - (10 ft/s)²
16293.2 ft²/s² + 100 ft²/s² = Vf²
Vf = √(16393.2 ft²/s²)
<u>Vf = 128 ft/s</u>
<u></u>
(b)
The kinetic energy of the object before it hits the surface of earth is given by:
K.E = (0.5)(m)(Vf)²
where,
m = mass of object = 375 lb
K.E = Kinetic energy of object before it strikes the surface of earth = ?
Therefore,
K.E = (0.5)(375 lb)(128 ft/s)²
K.E = 3073725 lb.ft²/s²
Now, converting this to Btu:
K.E = (3073725 lb.ft²/s²)(1 Btu/25037 lb.ft²/s²)
<u>K.E = 122.8 Btu</u>
Well the trivial answer is zero, since there is indeed a "zero vector". Assuming you aren't allowed to use the zero vector you would need at least two. They would be antiparallel and of equal magnitude. (That is be pointing in opposite directions and have the same length)

Complete Question
In an action movie, the villain is rescued from the ocean by grabbing onto the ladder hanging from a helicopter. He is so intent on gripping the ladder that he lets go of his briefcase of counterfeit money when he is 130 m above the water. If the briefcase hits the water 6.0 s later, what was the speed at which the helicopter was ascending?
Answer:
The speed of the helicopter is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The height at which he let go of the brief case is h = 130 m
The time taken before the the brief case hits the water is t = 6 s
Generally the initial speed of the briefcase (Which also the speed of the helicopter )before the man let go of it is mathematically evaluated using kinematic equation as
Here s is the distance covered by the bag at sea level which is zero
