Answer 1

Answer:

The initial speed of the ball is  98.22 ft/s

The maximum height of the ball is 75.02 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Step-by-step explanation:

The position and velocity vectors of the ball can be calcualted as follows:

r = (x0 + v0 · t · cos α, y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²)

v = (v0 · cos α , v0 · sin α + g · t)

Where:

r = position vector at time t.

x0 = initial horizontal position.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

α = launching angle.

y0 = initial vertical position.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

v = velocity vector at time t.

Let´s call r final to the position vector when the ball is caught (see attached figure). The components of r final are:

x = 300 feet

y = 0

Then, r final = (300 feet, 0)

Notice that the origin of the frame of reference is located at the launching point.

Then, when the ball is caught:

300 feet = x0 + v0 · t · cos α

0 = y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²

We have a system of two equations with two unknowns (t and v0), so, let´s solve it.

Let´s solve the first eqation for v0:

300 feet = x0 + v0 · t · cos α

Since the frame of reference is located at the launching point (x0 = 0). Then:

300 feet = v0 · t · cos 45°

300 feet /( t · cos 45°) = v0

Now, let´s replace v0 in the secod equation of the system:

0 = y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²    (y0 = 0)

0 = 300 feet/(t · cos 45°) · t · sin 45° - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t²

0 = 300 feet · sin 45°/cos45° - 4.9 m/s² · t²       (sin45°/cos45° = 1)

0 = 300 feet - 4.9 m/s² · t²

-300 feet = -4.9 m/s² · t²

-300 feet / -16.08 ft/s²  = t²

t = 4.32 s

Now, we can calculate the initial velocity:

300 feet /( t · cos 45°) = v0

300 feet /( 4.32 s · cos 45°) = v0

v0 = 98.22 ft/s

The initial speed of the ball is  98.22 ft/s

To obtain the maximum height of the ball, we have to find at which time the ball is at its maximum height. We can do this in several ways, but we will use the equation of velocity. See in the figure that when the ball is at its maximum height, the y-component of the velocity is zero (because the vector is horizontal). Then, using the equation of the y-component of the velocity:

vy = v0 · sin α + g · t

0 = 98.22 · sin 45° - 32.15 ft/s² · t

(-98.22 · sin 45°) / - 32.15 ft/s² = t

t = 2.16 s

(Notice that this time is half the total time of flight calculated above (4.32 s). This is also the time at which the horizontal distance traveled by the ball is half the total horizontal traveled distance. This is so because the trajectory of the ball is a parabola).

Now that we have the time, we can calculate the y-component of the position vector (r1y in the figure).

r1y = v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²

r1y = 98.22 ft/s · 2.16 s · sin 45° - 1/2 · 32.15 ft/s² · (2.16 s)²

r1y = 75.02 ft

The maximum height of the ball is 75.02 ft.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The markings show that the vertical line and the hypotenuse are bisected. That means that the common ratio is 1/2.

(x - 8) / 30 = 1/2                     Cross multiply

2(x - 8) = 30                           Divide both sides by 2

x - 8 = 30/2      

x - 8 = 15                                Add 8 to both sides

x-8+8 =15+8

x = 23

or the 7:30 show time, 140 movie tickets were sold. Receipts from the $13 adult tickets and the $10 senior tickets totaled $1,664. How many adult tickets and how many senior tickets were sold?

Answers

Answer:

adult tickets x=88  and senior tickets y=52

Step-by-step explanation:We can take adult ticket as x and senior ticket as y.

Now we will form two equations

x + y = 140

13x + 10y = 1664

This system of equations we will solve using Gaussian algorithm (gradual elimination of the variables)  

We will multiply first equation with (-10) and get

-10x-10y=-1400 Than we will add to second equation and get

3x=264 => x=264/3=88 => x=88

Now we will replace x in the first equation before multiplying and get

88+ =140 => y= 140-88= 52 => y=52

adult tickets x=88  and senior tickets y=52

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes. N is the size of the population. n is the size of the sample. k is the total number of desired outcomes.

In this problem:

Club has 20 members, hence [tex]N = 20[/tex]The committee has 4 members, hence [tex]n = 4[/tex]Rose and Liz are 2 of the members, hence [tex]k = 2[/tex]

The probability that both are selected is P(X = 2), hence:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = h(2,20,4,2) = \frac{C_{2,2}C_{18,2}}{C_{20,4}} = 0.0316[/tex]

What is Three dimensional shape?

a three dimensional shape can be defined as a solid figure or an object or shape that has three dimensions—length, width, and height.

The volume of a hemisphere is given by the formula V = (2/3)πrr³.

Since we are given the volume of the hemisphere, we can solve for the radius as follows:

V = (2/3)πr³

6496 = (2/3)πr³

Multiplying both sides by 3/2π, we get:

r³ = 6496 × (3/2π)

=6496×3/2×3.14

=19488/6.28
