Use the formula h = −16t2 + v0t. (if an answer does not exist, enter dne.) a ball is thrown straight upward at an initial speed

of v0 = 56 ft/s. (a) when does the ball initially reach a height of 40 ft?

Using the given formula with v0=56 ft/s and h=40 ft 
h = -16t2 + v0t  
40 = -16t2 + 56t 
16t2 - 56t + 40 = 0  
Solving the quadratic equation:  
t= (-b+/-(b^2-4ac)^1/2)/2a = (56+/-((-56)^2-4*16*40)^1/2)/2*16 = (56 +/- 24) / 32 
 We have two possible solutions  
t1 = (56+24)/32 = 2.5 
t2 = (56-24)/32 = 1  
So initially the ball reach a height of 40 ft in 1 second.

A battery with internal resistance r is connected to a load resistance R. If R is increased, does the terminal voltage of the ba
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

The terminal voltage of the battery decreases.

Explanation:

An idea battery does not have internal resistance but a real practical battery always have an internal resistance r connected in series with the battery.

This internal resistance causes a voltage drop when load R is connected, a current I flows in the circuit which causes a voltage drop I*r in the battery therefore, the terminal voltage of the battery will decrease.

An ocean liner is cruising at 10 meters/second and is about to approach a stationary ferryboat. A parcel is released from the oc
Afina-wow [57]
The parcel will undergo projectile motion, which means that it will have motion in both the horizontal and vertical direction.

First, we determine how long the parcel will fall using:

s = ut + 1/2 at²

where s will be the height, u is the initial vertical velocity of the parcel (0), t is the time of fall and a is the acceleration due to gravity. 

5.5 = (0)(t) + 1/2 (9.81)(t)²
t = 1.06 seconds

Now, we may use this time to determine the horizontal distance covered by the parcel by using:
distance = velocity * time

The horizontal velocity of the parcel will be equal to the horizontal velocity of the cruise liner.

Distance = 10 * 1.06
Distance = 10.6 meters

The boat should be 10.6 meters away horizontally from the point of release.

A yo-yo can be thought of as a solid cylinder of mass m and radius r that has a light string wrapped around its circumference (s
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

6.5 m/s^2

Explanation:

The net force acting on the yo-yo is

F_net = mg-T

ma=mg-T

now T= mg-ma

net torque acting on the yo-yo is

τ_net = Iα

I= moment of inertia (= 0.5 mr^2 )

α = angular acceleration

τ_net = 0.5mr^2(a/r)

Tr= 0.5mr^2(a/r)

(mg-ma)r=0.5mr^2(a/r)

a(1/2+1)=g

a= 2g/3

a= 2×9.8/3 = 6.5 m/s^2
