The diagram below shows a golf ball being struck by a club. The ball leaves the club with a speed of 40 meters per second at an

hjlf

Answer:

61.22m

Explanation:

Maximum height in projectile is expressed as;

H = u²sin²θ/2g

u is the speed

g is the acceleration due to gravity

θ is the angle of projection

Substitute the given values into the formula;

H = u²sin²θ/2g

H = 40²sin²60/2g

H = 1600(0.8660)²/2(9.8)

H = 1600(0.8660)²/2(9.8)

H = 1,199.9/19.6

H = 61.22m

Hence the maximum height achieved by the ball is 61.22m

James Bond is trying to escape his enemy on a speedboat but

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

100 m/s

Explanation:

Mass the mass of Bond's boat is m₁. His enemy's boat is twice the mass of Bond's i.e. m₂ = 2 m₁

Initial speed of Bond's boat is 0 as it won't start and remains stationary in the water. The initial speed of enemy's boat is 50 m/s. After the collision, enemy boat is completely stationary. Let v₁ is speed of bond's boat.

It is the concept of the conservation of momentum. It remains conserved. So,

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

Putting all the values, we get :

$0+(2m_1)50=m_1v_1+(2m_2)(0)\\\\100m_1=m_1v_1\\\\v_1=100\ m/s$

So, Bond's boat is moving with a speed of 100 m/s after the collision.

The Hubble Space Telescope has a mass of 1.16*10^ 4 kg and orbits the Earth at an altitude of 5.68 * 10 ^ 5 above Earth's surfac

andrezito [222]

Answer:

$E=8.13\times 10^{12}\ J$

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a Hubble Space Telescope, $m_1=1.16\times 10^4\ kg$

It orbits the Earth at an altitude of $5.68\times 10^5\ m$

We need to find the potential energy the telescope at this location. The formula for potential energy is given by :

$E=\dfrac{Gm_1m_e}{r}$

Where

$m_e$ is the mass of Earth

Put all the values,

$E=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.16\times 10^4\times 5.97\times 10^{24}}{5.68\times 10^5}\\\\E=8.13\times 10^{12}\ J$

So, the potential energy of the telescope is $8.13\times 10^{12}\ J$ .

Water is an example of ___________, while hydrogen is an example of __________.

-BARSIC- [3]

Are you referring to the fact that water is a compound while hydrogen is an element? If I'm wrong just comment and clarify and I can edit it, I don't even know what kind of unit you're in. :)
