Children playing in a playground on the flat roof of a city school lose their ball to the parking lot below. One of the teachers kicks the ball back up to the children as shown in the figure below. The playground is 5.40 m above the parking lot, and the school building's vertical wall is h = 6.60 m high, forming a 1.20 m high railing around the playground. The ball is launched at an angle of 0 = 53.0° above the horizontal at a point d = 24.0 m from the base of the building wall. The ball takes 2.20 s to reach a point vertically above the wall. (Due to the nature of this problem, do not use rounded intermediate values in your calculations-including answers submitted in WebAssign.) (a) Find the speed (in m/s) at which the ball was launched. m/s (b) Find the vertical distance (in m) by which the ball clears the wall. m. (c) Find the horizontal distance (in m) from the wall to the point on the roof where the ball lands. m.

Since 1995, hundreds of extrasolar planets have been discovered. There is the exciting possibility that there is life on one or more of these planets. To support life similar to that on the Earth, the planet must have liquid water. For an Earth-like planet orbiting a star like the Sun, this requirement means that the planet must be within a habitable zone of 0.9 AU to 1.4 AU from the star. The semimajor axis of an extrasolar planet is inferred from its period. What range in periods corresponds to the habitable zone for an Earth-like Planet orbiting a Sun-like star?
According to the National Academy of Sciences, the Earths surface temperature has risen about 1F since 1900. There is evidence that this climate change may be due to human activity. The organizers of World Jump Day argue that if the Earth were in a slightly larger orbit, we could avoid global warming and climate change. They propose that we move the Earth into this new orbit by jumping. The idea is to get people in a particular time zone to jump together. The hope is to have 600 million people jump in a 24-hour period. Lets see if it will work. Consider the Earth and its inhabitants to make up the system. a. Estimate the number of people in your time zone. Assume they all decide to jump at the same time; estimate the total mass of the jumpers. b. What is the net external force on the Earthjumpers system? c. Assume the jumpers use high-tech Flybar pogo sticks (Fig. P8.32), which allow them to jump 6 ft. What is the displacement of the Earth as a result of their jump? d. What happens to the Earth when the jumpers land?

In the early days of rocketry, some people claimed that rockets couldn’t fly in outer space as there was no air for the rockets to push against. Suppose you were an early rocket scientist and met someone who made this argument. How would you convince the person that rockets could travel in space?
You have negotiated with the Omicronians for a base on the planet Omicron Persei 7. The architects working with you to plan the base need to know the acceleration of a freely falling object at the surface of the planet in order to adequately design the structures. The Omicronians have told you that the value is gOP7=7.29 flurg/grom^2, but your architects use the units meters/second^2, and from your previous experience you know that both the Omicronians and your architects are terrible at unit conversion. Thus, it's up to you to do the unit conversion. Fortunately, you know the unit equality relationships: 5.24flurg=1meter and 1grom=0.493second. What is the value of gOP7 in the units your architects will use, in meter per second squared?

Please answer the question and its subquestions entirely! This is one question with two subquestions. According to the official Bartleby guidelines, I am alowed to have up to two subquestion! 1) If a two-body collision is not head-on, then which of the following may always be assumed? Momentum is conserved. Kinetic energy is conserved. Both momentum and kinetic energy is conserved. Neither momentum or kinetic energy is conserved. a) Mass 1 strikes Mass 2 while moving in the positive-x direction, which is initially at rest. After the collision M2 moves off in the same direction but at a greater speed. Which of the following is true? Mass 2 is larger than Mass 1. Mass 2 is the same size as Mass 1 Mass 2 is smaller than Mass 1. b) A 900 kg car travelling at 12 m/s due east collides with a 600 kg car travelling at 24 m/s due north. As a result of the collision, the two cars lock together and move in what final…

Podracing is a very popular auto racing sport in the Star Wars universe . Although it is dangerous , it is also exciting to see podracers competing at extreme speeds in those tiny crafts . Tatooine is a sandy and windy planet where the wind constantly blows at 50 km/h . On Tatooine , Anakin Skywalker's Podracer is able to travel 960 km at tailwind in the same time it can travel 640 km at headwind . How fast can his Podracer travel in still air ? This question is previously on here but the answer is incorrect. Answer choices: 250, 320, 200, or 300km/h
