Answer:

(a ) vf= 188.12m/s  : Final speed at 8.75 s

(b) d= 823.04 m   : Distance the rocket sled traveled

Explanation:

Rocket sled kinematics :The rocket sled moves with a uniformly accelerated movement, then we apply the following formulas:

d =vi*t+1/2a*t² Formula (1)

vf= vi+at            Formula(2)

Where:

vi: initial speed =0

a: acceleration=21.5 m/s²

t: time=8.75 s

vf: final speed in m/s

d:displacement in meters(m)

Calculation of displacement (d) and final speed (vf)

We replace data in formulas (1) and (2):

d= 0+1/2*21.5*8.75²

d= 823.04 m

vf= 0+21.5*8.75

vf= 188.12m/s

A hot air balloon is on the ground, 200 feet from an observer. The pilot decides to ascend at 100 ft/min. How fast is the angle
liq [111]

Answer:

0.0031792338 rad/s

Explanation:

\theta = Angle of elevation

y = Height of balloon

Using trigonometry

tan\theta=y\dfrac{y}{200}\\\Rightarrow y=200tan\theta

Differentiating with respect to t we get

\dfrac{dy}{dt}=\dfrac{d}{dt}200tan\theta\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dy}{dt}=200sec^2\theta\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}\\\Rightarrow 100=200sec^2\theta\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=\dfrac{100}{200sec^2\theta}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{2}cos^2\theta

Now, with the base at 200 ft and height at 2500 ft

The hypotenuse is

h=\sqrt{200^2+2500^2}\\\Rightarrow h=2507.98\ ft

Now y = 2500 ft

cos\theta=\dfrac{200}{h}\\\Rightarrow cos\theta=\dfrac{200}{2507.98}=0.07974

\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.07974^2\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=0.0031792338\ rad/s

The angle is changing at 0.0031792338 rad/s

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

Two marbles are launched at t = 0 in the experiment illustrated in the figure below. Marble 1 is launched horizontally with a speed of 4.20 m/s from a height h = 0.950 m. Marble 2 is launched from ground level with a speed of 5.94 m/s at an angle above the horizontal. (a) Where would the marbles collide in the absence of gravity? Give the x and y coordinates of the collision point. (b) Where do the marbles collide given that gravity produces a downward acceleration of g = 9.81 m/s2? Give the x and y coordinates.

A good quarterback can throw a football at 27 m/s (about 60 mph). If we assume that the ball is caught at the same height from w
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

The ball was in air for 3.896 s

Explanation:

given,

g = 9.8 m/s², acceleration due to gravity,

If the launch angle is 45°, the horizontal range will be maximum.

The horizontal and vertical launch velocities are equal, and each is equal to

v_h  =  v cos θ

v_h  =  27 × cos 45°

         = 19.09 m/s.

The time to attain maximum height is one half of the time of flight.

v = u + at                     ∵ v = 0 (max. height)

19.09 - 9.8 t₁ = 0

t₁ = 1.948 s

The time of flight is twice of the maximum height time

2 t₁ = 3.896 s

The horizontal distance traveled is

D = v × t

D = 3.896×19.09

   = 74.375 m

The ball was in air for 3.896 s
