An airplane flying at a speed of 130 mi/h (58.1 m/s) and at an altitude of 4.9 km drops a food package. Without a parachute, at what angle (degrees) below the horizontal will the package strike the ground?

Answers

Answer 1

The food package will strike the ground at 11 degrees below the horizontal.

Time for the food package to hit the ground

The time for the food package to hit the ground is calculated as follows;

h = vt + ¹/₂gt²

let the initial velocity be horizontal

4900 = 0(t) + (0.5 x 9.8)t²

4900 = 4.9t²

t² = 4900/4.9

t² = 1,000

t = √1,000

t = 31.62 s

Final speed of the food package when it hits ground

vf(y) = vo + gt

vf(y) = 0 + (31.62 x 9.8)

vf(y) = 309.88 m/s

Angle of projection

The horizontal component of the speed will be constant, while vertical component will change

[tex]tan(\theta ) = \frac{V_y}{V_x} \\\\\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{V_y}{V_x})\\\\\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{309.88}{58.1} )\\\\\theta = 79^0[/tex]

Angle below the horizontal = 90 - 79 = 11⁰

Thus, the food package will strike the ground at 11 degrees below the horizontal.

Quantity B: It depends on gravitational pull.

What quantities are these most likely describing?
Both Quantity A and Quantity B are mass.
Both Quantity A and Quantity B are weight.
Quantity A is weight and Quantity B is mass.
Quantity A is mass and Quantity B is weight.

What is the speed of a snail moving at a rate of 3 inches per minute in [m/s]? Recall that 1 [m] = 39 [in]. Round to the nearest ten thousandth (4 places after the decimal).

Answers

Answer:

0.0013 m/s

Explanation:

Speed in inches per minute = 3 inches per minute

Speed in m/s =?

Next, we shall convert 3 inches per minute (3 in/min) to metre per minute.(m/min)

39 in/min = 1 m/min

Therefore,

3 in/min = 3 in/min × 1 m/min / 39 in/min

3 in/min = 1/13 m/min

Finally, we shall convert 1/13 m/min to m/s. This can be obtained as follow:

1 m/min = 1/60 m/s

Therefore,

1/13 m/min = 1/13 m/min × 1/60 m/s / 1 m/min

1/13 m/min = 1/780 m/s

1/13 m/min = 0.0013 m/s

Thus, 3 in/min is equivalent to 0.0013 m/s.

Therefore the speed of the snail in m/s is 0.0013 m/s

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

A stretching routine should target most of the main muscles in the body and at least one stretching exercise per section of the body. Also in a work environment since individual's sizes, ages, and cultures vary you should design a routine that is for beginners and very easy and effective. Regardless, each individual should be able to move at their own pace and push as far as they are physically able. One such routine would be the one in the attached picture below which targets all major areas, is easy and effective. It starts at the neck muscles and works its way down the arms, back, and legs.

b. 2.54x10^-8N, to the right
c. 3.4x10^-8N, to the left
d. 3.4x10^-8N, to the right

Answers

Answer is A 2.8 x 10^-8 N, to the right

The net gravitational force on mass A due to masses B and C is required.

The correct option is a. [tex]2.8\times 10^{-8}\ \text{N}[/tex] to the right.

G = Gravitational constant = [tex]6.674\times 10^{-11}\ \text{Nm}^2/\text{kg}^2[/tex]

[tex]r_{AB}[/tex] = Distance between A and B = 0.4+0.1 = 0.5 m

[tex]r_{AC}[/tex] = Distance between A and C = 0.1 m

[tex]m_A=m_B=m_c[/tex] = Mass of each particle = 2 kg

The required force is

[tex]F_A=F_{AB}+F_{AC}\\ =\dfrac{Gm_Am_B}{r_{AB}^2}+\dfrac{Gm_Am_C}{r_{AC}^2}\\ =Gm^2\left(\dfrac{1}{r_{AB}^2}+\dfrac{1}{r_{AC}^2}\right)\\ =6.674\times 10^{-11}\times 2^2\left(\dfrac{1}{0.5^2}+\dfrac{1}{0.1^2}\right)\\ =2.8\times 10^{-8}\ \text{N}[/tex]

The magnitude of force will be [tex]2.8\times 10^{-8}\ \text{N}[/tex]

The direction will be towards the right since C is closer to A.

It is a weighted average of the masses of an element’s isotopes.

Explanation:

The best definition of the atom mass of an element is that it is a weighted average of the masses of an element's isotopes.

Isotopes of an element have the same electronic configuration but differ in only their masses. The atomic mass of an element can be derived from the geonormal abundances of this isotopes. It is the average of all the isotopes of an element.

 Atomic mass  = ∑m[tex]_{i}[/tex] a[tex]_{i}[/tex]

Light travels slower in oil than in air. If a light wave moves through the oil at a speed of 2 x 108 m/s and the wavelength of this light wave is 2 x 10-3 m, what is the frequency of this wave?

1 x 105 Hz
4 x 10-24 Hz
4 x 105 Hz
1 x 1011 Hz

Answers

The frequency of this wave will be 1 × 10¹¹ Hz. Option d is correct. Frequency is the inverse of the time period.

What is the frequency?

Frequency is defined as the number of repetitions of a wave occurring waves in 1 second.

The given data in the problem is;

v is the speed of light =  2 x 10⁸ m/s

[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the wavelength = 2 x 10⁻³ m,

f is the frequency of the wave is to be found;

Frequency is given by the formula as,

[tex]\rm v = \lambda \times f \\\\\ \rm f = \frac{v}{\lambda} \\\\ \rm f = \frac{2 \times 10^8}{2 \times 10^-3} \\\\ \rm f = 1 \times 10^{11} \ Hz[/tex]

Hence the frequency of this wave will be 1 × 10¹¹ Hz. Option d is correct.

A hockey puck sliding on a frozen lake comes

If its initial velocity is 2.3 m/s, what is its
acceleration

Answers

Given parameters:

Distance traveled  = 176m

Initial velocity  = 2.3m/s

Unknown:

Acceleration  = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the change in velocity with time. To solve this problem, we apply one of the motion equations;

              V²   = U²  + 2as

 where V is the final velocity

              U is the initial velocity

               a is the acceleration

               s is the distance

       final velocity is 0;

                   0²  = 2.3² + 2 x a x 176

                   -5.29  = 352a

                    a  = - [tex]\frac{5.29}{352}[/tex]   = - 0.015m/s²
