HOT SHOWER

Faucet control system to regulate the temperature of a shower. The system has a loop that naturally leads to equilibrium, that is, the CURRENT TEMPERATURE tends over time to the desired TEMPERATURE. However due to the delay in water flowing in the pipe, from the faucet to the shower, the system oscillates but still tends to balance. In fact, what makes CURRENT TEMPERATURE fluctuate is the relationship between WATER DELAY and FAUCET ADJUSTMENT TIME. The oscillation frequency is higher the higher the relationship between WATER DELAY time and FAUCET ADJUST TIME.

OBLIQUE THROW IN VACUUM

A body is thrown obliquely into the vacuum at an initial velocity of 100 m / s, in a direction that forms with the horizontal an angle x, such that sin (x) = 0.8 and cos (x) = 0.6. Adopting g = 10m / s², determine:

(a) the horizontal and vertical velocity component modules at the moment of launch;

(b) the instant at which the body reaches the highest point of its trajectory;

c) the maximum height reached by the body;

d) The range of the throw.

HORIZONTAL THROW IN VACUUM

After a flood, a group of people were left in one area. A rescue plane, flying horizontally at a height of 720 m and maintaining a speed of v = 50m / s, approaches the scene for a packet of medicines and food to be launched to isolated people. How far in the horizontal direction should the package be dropped so that it falls with people? Disregard air resistance and adopt g = 10m / s².
