Suppose Sammy Sosa hits a home run which travels 361. ft (110. m). Leaving the bat at 50 degrees above the horizontal, how high
Yuliya22 [3333]

Response:

The horizontal span of Sosa is 276.526 ft or 84.28 meters.

Explanation:

As illustrated in the diagram, let point O denote Sosa's starting position. She travels 361 ft at a 50-degree angle relative to the horizontal.

sin 50 = \frac{OM}{OP}

0.7660 = h / 361

h = 276.526 ft

h = 84.28 meters

The horizontal distance of Sosa is 276.526 ft or 84.28 meters.

A moving sidewalk 95 m in length carries passengers at a speed of 0.53 m/s. One passenger has a normal walking speed of 1.24 m/s
Maru [3345]
Answer: a) t = 1.8 x 10^2 seconds; b) t = 54 seconds; c) t = 49 seconds. Explanation: a) To determine the time of a stationary passenger on the sidewalk, we use the position formula. Given the constant speed of the walkway, we can calculate the time taken for set distances accordingly. This calculation extends into cases where combined velocities for walking are involved in subsequent queries.
