. Emergency rations are to be dropped from a plane to some stranded hikers. The search and rescue plane is flying at an altitude

of 1500 m at 70 m/s. a. Determine where the ideal drop point would be (measured horizontally from the hikers). (Answer is 1.22 km I need help solving b) b. The pilot notices (too late!) that they have passed the ideal drop point; the supplies now need to be launched vertically in order to land near the hikers. Calculate the vertical launch velocity required, given that the plane is now 1 km away (horizontally) from the hikers.

through the Doppler effect. The formula for apparent frequency is derived as F apparent = F real x (Vair ± Vobserver) / (Vair ± Vsource). In this scenario, should the observer move towards the source—place a positive sign in the numerator and a negative in the denominator. Since the observer approaches the wall, we apply the formula to derive the necessary speed.

A kangaroo jumps to a vertical height of 2.8 m. How long was it in the air before returning to earth
serg [3582]
The kangaroo reaches a maximum vertical altitude of 2.8 m, which can be calculated using the formula 2.8 = 1/2 * 9.8 * t^2. Thus, applying the equation s = ut + 1/2at^2.

serg [3582]

Response: 800N

Clarification:

Provided data:

Ball mass = 0.8kg

Contact duration = 0.05 seconds

Final and initial speed = 25m/s

The average force exerted by the ball on the wall can be calculated using the following relationship:

Force (F) = mass (m) * average acceleration (a)

a= (initial velocity (u) + final velocity (v))/t

m = 0.8kg

u = v = 25m/s

t = contact time of the ball = 0.05s

Thus,

a = (25 + 25) ÷ 0.05 = 1000m/s^2

Hence,

The average force magnitude (F)

F=ma

m = ball mass = 0.8

a = 1000m/s^2

F = 0.8 * 1000

F = 800N
