I have seen largest guava fruits are in height of plant that is average of top most and bottom most fruit in the plant? can there be a scientific reason for these observation?

What are the reasons for satellite to be launched to outer atmospheric orbits... Is reduction in air friction a major reason, or is it just an added advantage. I know escape velocity has Major reason in it , what are other major reason for chosing particular orbit for a sate

Ive done this problem two different ways (sorry it’s messy) and keep getting hB = 1/9 hA, but my homework says it’s wrong. I’m guessing it’s because I assume that v0 is 0, but I’m not sure what other formulas or steps I need to take to either find or omit the variable. Are there any other...

To find the time of this problem, I used the equations 3 + (10 * x ) = 13.5 *x. 3 = 3.5*x. Therefore x was 0.857. To start off with child A was already three feet above ground and I got the answer to the time. However I couldn't find the height.

my attempt: centre of mass of standing block is at 0.6 and the fallen block is at 0.25 so then change in height = 0.35 and mg = 4000 N so change in gpe = 4000* 0.35 = 1400J but wouldnt we take into account that we only have to apply force till the centre of mass is outside of the block so...

Hi, Suppose you have a truncated cone filled water with the lower radius being R, and upper r (R>r), and the height is H. R, r and H is known so the volume, V, can be calculated using V=1/3*pi*H*(R^2+R*r+r^2). Now suppose you remove some water so that you end up with a lower volume, V1. The...

For this problem, The solution is, I don't understand how they got from ##\frac {sin^2\theta_i}{sin2\theta} ## to ##\frac{tan\theta_i}{2}##. Would somebody please show me the immediate steps? I also don't understand is why they say the ignore the trivial case where ##\theta_i = 0~rad##...

I want to make a few of these if it will not cost a lot.

I substituted 0 for vi, as the rocket is initially stopped. I am looking for Vf. So: Vf^2=0+2asΔs Vf^2=2asΔs I then substituted a=Fthrust/m So: Vf^2=2(Fthrust/m)Δs Δs at any given moment equals h so I substituted h for Δs. Then took the square root of both sides. Vf=sqrt(2h(Fthrust/m)) It...

Hello, I was wondering, for a fixed amount of water, why when the height of a water tower increases, the water pressure at the outlet of the pipe at the base of the tower increases ? I have often read on the internet that it would be caused by the weight of the water above the water at the base...

Vvertical=15sin30 = 7.5m/s d=Vvertical*t+0.5atsquared 0=(7.5m/s)t+0.5(-9.81m/s)t squared 0=t(7.5m/s-4.9t) t= 1.53s t=1.53/2 t= 0.76s to reach the maximum height Is this correct?

Hi, I have this kinematics question I am struggling with. There is a building from which a ball is dropped and it takes 5 second to reach the ground. Then they say that the same building is on a planet w/o atmosphere where g= 6 m/s^2 . What is the height of the building ? I approached this...

I don't have any solution

I've been trying some online projectile problems. Specifically, I was using this one on master difficulty, looking at row e. It uses a random number generator; I shared the data I received in the Homework Statement above. According to the help section, you can solve this with the formula...

I am currently working on an experiment that involves dropping a magnet from varying heights and measuring how the induced emf of a solenoid changes as a result. I am currently somewhat struggling with a derivation for a relationship between the two variables, however, this is what I have been...

Hi, everyone! Doing some fluid flow/Bernoulli tasks. Ok, so the task is: «A hose with a radius of 0,035m is connected to a nozzle, which reduces the radius of the hose to 0,018m (2). The hose carries (qv) 0,0075 m3/sec and the totalpressure (3) in the wide section (1) is 211 kPA. The density of...

[Mentors' note: moved from technical forums so no template] Hi All, Working on a lab write-up, and I need background equations to support the reasoning for my experiment. To outline briefly, two-part experiment, first part was finding the ideal pressure for a basketball, where I inflated it...

I am calculating it like this: 𝑦=ℎ0−0.5𝑔𝑡^2=0→ℎ0=0.5𝑔𝑡^2→𝑡=sqrt(2*ℎ0/g) 𝑥=𝑣0*𝑡→ substituting t →𝑥=𝑣0*sqrt(2*ℎ0/g) 𝑑𝑥/𝑑ℎ0=𝑣0/(𝑔*sqrt(2*h0/g))=0 for maximum ℎ0=0. confused. can someone tell me how I am calculating this wrong?

Increases in global temperature change affect the tree line and presumably comfortable habitability via temperature, and average air pressure associated with weather patterns. That's not what I mean. I'm thinking a 1/50 increase in kelvin temperature might increase the scale height of Earth's...

A plane is flying 80km/h in horizontal direction and it has to drop a bomb into 30m wide and 30m deep hollow. What is the smallest possible height for the plane to fly above hollow if the bomb successfully hits the bottom? I made a mistake somewhere but not sure where... the correct result is...

Hello Guys! I'm studying radio waves and I can't understand the following: Radio waves propagates through Earths surface as a ground waves, line-of-sight waves or skywaves. There is a phenomenon that occurs with line-of-sight waves (and maybe with ground waves?) known as height gain, in which...

Hi all I have a very quick question I'm trying to understand why a graph of Rebound height (m) vs Air Pressure (x axis) doesn't have a line of best fit which goes through the origin. I understand a basketball's bounce can be compared to the compression of a mass-spring system but then why...

Assuming it’s one body whose initial speed is u. First it attains height h then H. t1 and t2 are two times at which they attain h and H. ##h=ut1-\frac12gt1^2## ##H=ut2-\frac12gt2^2## ##\frac {t1}{t2}=1/3## Replacing t2 with 3t1, I am stuck.

The correct answer is 5.6m, not sure where I made the mistake.

By considering conservation of energy, my answer is (B). But the solution states the answer is (A) Is it because there will be loss of some of the KE when the string hits the peg so making answer (A) is better than answer (B)? The question itself does not state about friction Thanks

Bit of a long shot but can anyone remember a TV program where the presenter measured the weight of something at ground level and compared it to the weight at the top of a tall building, possibly the Empire State building? Sorry I can't recall more details. Think it was at least 10 years ago...

> >A stuntman jumped from $1.25 \ \text{m}$ height and, landed at distance $10 \ \text{m}$. Find velocity when he jumped. (Take $\text{g}=10 \ ms^{-2}$) I had solved it following way. $$h=\frac{1}{2}gt^2$$ $$=>1.25=5\cdot t^2$$ $$=>t=\frac{1}{2}$$ And, $$s=vt$$ $$v=\frac{s}{t}$$ $$=\frac{10 \...

How can i find the angle that a projectile is fired where the maximun height is the same as the traveling distance? I need to find this first in a theoretical way, then i need to confirm this with a simulation. And i need to use only this y=yo+Voyt+1/2gt^2 x=Voxt

I’m trying to calculate how many Joules are stored in the Hyperion tree, the worlds tallest (115.84 m). However, I cannot find the mass of said tree, and am trying to find it by multiplying density by the volume (530 m^3) because if p=m/V then p•V=m, but I cannot find the density of the tree, so...

Is there an optics equation that can take an existing optics set-up and tell you would components, you would need to reduce the distance and still get the same result? I have a working system, but it is really larger and I would like to reduce the distance, the height. I am using a light source...

There is a pressurized system at work that operates at 500 psi. The line is 22" in diameter. One of the valves failed at the body to bonnet connection and launched the valve (5,000 lbs) up and through the roof. I was curious if it is possible to calculate the height reached.

i have the first convertions of the atmospheric pressure: 1872 lbf/ft^2 = 89,632.6 Pa 2016 lbm/ft^2 = 96,325.4 Pa g= 9.72 m/s^2 But, i don't have idea how pass the air density of "lbm" to international units ;,(. And other cuestion: its fine pass lbm/ft^2 and lbf/ft^2 to Pa simirlarly?

So first I converted the density from g/cm^3 to kg/cm^3 (it wants the answer in cm). This gives me a density of 0.01356 kg/cm^3. Then I thought about the relationship of pressure and temperature. Since volume remains constant and temperature is the only variable changing, the change in pressure...

I did (1300)(9.81)(0.67) and got 8544.51 N/m^2 but unsure if that was the correct route to take. Please confirm or deny if I was approaching it in the correct way!

Using the ideal gas equation ##PV = nRT\Rightarrow PV = \frac{m}{M} RT## where ##m,M## are the mass and molecular weights of the gas respectively. This yields ##\frac{m}{V} = \frac{PM}{RT} = \rho##, the density of the gas at a point with pressure ##P##. If only we can obtain the variation of...

Hi, Here is the question. Answer given is d. But i don't understand how is that computed? I am working on this question. Meanwhile any member knowing the correct answer may help me in finding out correct answer.

On the site https://www.wisfaq.nl/show3archive.asp?id=2537&j=2002 it is said that the ratio of the height of the Cheops pyramid (##a##) to the length of one side of the base (##a + b##) is equal to $$ \frac{2 \, (a + b) / Pi}{ a + b}= 2 / Pi = 0.6366197722$$ But if you use the golden ratio as a...

First of all I have found the time taken by the first object to hit the ground back: ##\Delta t=2(\frac{v}{a})##. Then, by subtracting 2 seconds to this quantity, I get the time in which the second object has accelerated in free fall, with terminal velocity ##v=at##. Now, I find the distance...

Now I've tried looking at the problem like this. Considering that a is the length off the vehicles that he is trying to jump over I would consider that to be s. The plane from which he starts (b) should be the h. So considering that he is jumping from a horizontal plane, gravity should also...
