Movies and tv shows sometimes portray a person being thrown backwards a sizable distance as a result of being struck by a bullet. calculate the maximum distance that a 60.3-kg object would fly backwards if it is struck by a 10.0-gram projectile moving with a velocity 389 m/s which then completely embeds itself in the object. assume that the angle of this perfectly inelastic collision is such that the combined mass is launched at an angle of 45 degrees above the horizontal, and neglect the effects of air resistance. based on this calculation, evaluate the realism (or lack thereof) of the tv/movie portrayal.

Why is rain likely when warm, moisture-laden air meets cold air? a) the lighter warm air will rise and cool down, causing condensation and rain. b) the cold air moves faster and pushes the warm air away, causing condensation and rain. c) the moisture in the warm air condenses on contact with the cold air, causing rain to fall. d) the cold air mixes with the warm air, reducing its temperature causing moisture to condense.
