A 1.0 kg football is given an initial velocity at ground level of 20.0 m/s [37 above horizontal]. It gets blocked just after re

aching a height of 3.0 m. (a) What is the velocity of the football when it first reaches a height of 3.0 m above the level ground? (b) What horizontal distance has the ball travelled when it first reaches a height of 3.0 m above ground?

Refer to the diagram shown below.

Neglect air resistance.
The horizontal component of the launch velocity is
 (20 m/s)*cos(37°) = 15.973 m/s
The vertical component of the launch velocity is
 (20 m/s)*sin(37°) = 12.036 m/s

The acceleration due to gravity is g =9.8 m/s².
The time, t s, for the ball to reach a height of 3 m is given by 
(12.036 m/s)*(t s) - (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(t s)² = (3 m)
12.036t - 4.9t² - 3 = 0
2.4543t - t² - 0.6122 = 0
t² - 2.4563t + 0.6122 = 0
Solve with the quadratic formula.
t = (1/2)[2.4563 +/- √(6.0334 - 2.4488)]
t = 2.1748 or 0.2815 s
The ball reaches a height of 3 m twice.
The first time it reaches 3 m height is 0.2815 s.

Part a.
The vertical velocity when t = 0.2815 s is
Vy  = 12.036 - 9.8*0.2815
   = 9.2773 m/s
The horizontal component of velocity is Vx = 15.973 m/s
The resultant velocity is 
√(9.2773² + 15.973² ) = 18.47 m/s
Answer:
The velocity at a height of 3.0 m  is 18.5 m/s (nearest tenth)

Part b.
The horizontal distance traveled is 
d = (15.973 m/s)*(0.2815 s) = 4.4964 m
Answer:
The horizontal distance traveled is 4.5 m (nearest tenth)

Because Vf>>Vi, and Vf=nRT/pex, then w=-pex x nRT/pex=-nRT (im assuming n is number of moles of CO2?). 1 mole of CaCO3 makes 1 mole of CO2, so plugging in numbers, I get 8.9kJ, although I dont use the 1 atm pressure at all

7. How many 1.00 µF capacitors must be connected in parallel to store a charge of 1.00 C with a potential of 110 V across the ca
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

q = C V    charge on 1 capacitor

q = 1 * 10E-6 * 110 = 1.1 *  10E-4  C per capacitor

N = Q / q = 1 / 1.1 * 10E-4  = 9091 capacitors

Quantum mechanics can be thought of as a ...
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

c. probablistic view of nature.

Explanation:

According to the problem of particle in a box in one dimension. If the particle energy E is taken less than the height of the barrier V.

Then with the help of classical mechanics it can be prove that the particle can not cross the barrier but according to the quantum mechanics, there is a small but a finite probability to cross the barrier.

Therefore by the above discussion it can be concluded that quantum mechanics can be thought as a probablistic view of nature.

Explain how evaporation cools a liquid​
MAVERICK [17]

When evaporation occurs liquid absorbs heat from the surroundings to get converted to its vapour form as a result, there is an overall decrease in the heat leading to cooling of the liquid.

Hope that this was helpful :)
