Against the park ranger's advice, a visitor at a national park throws a stone horizontally off the edge of a 86 m high cliff and

it lands a distance of 89 m from the edge of the cliff, narrowly missing a visitor below.
What was the initial horizontal velocity of the rock, in m/s? You can round your answer to the hundredth place and use g ≈ 10 m/s2.

The initial horizontal velocity of the rock, in m/s is 21.241 m/s.

<h3>What is projectile?</h3>

When an object is thrown at an angle from the horizontal direction, the object is said to be in projectile motion. The object which follows the projectile motion.

Time taken by the stone to reach the ground is

t = √2h/g

t = √(2x 86)/9.81

t = 4.19s


The horizontal velocity is

V(x)  = Horizontal distance traveled / Time taken t

Put the values, we get

V(x) = 89 m/4.19 s

V(x) = 21.241 m/s

Thus, the horizontal velocity is 21.241 m/s

Seamus made an electromagnet from an iron nail, a piece of copper wire with three coils spread out across the nail, and a AAA-
never [62]

Seamus can add batteries to increase the voltage, and he can decrease the space between the wire coils to accomplish this goal.

<h3>What is Attraction?</h3>

This is defined as any type of force that causes objects to come together and is possessed by objects such as a magnet.

In order to increase the power of the magnet it is best to increase the voltage and decrease the space of the coils so as to ensure it attracts at least four paper clips which makes option C the most appropriate choice.

tatyana61 [14]

Hello!

\large\boxed{KE = 50J}

Use the formula for kinetic energy:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

Plug in the given mass and velocity:

KE = \frac{1}{2} (4)5^{2}

Simplify:

KE = \frac{1}{2} (100)\\\\KE = 50 J
