A drone is flying horizontally when it runs out of battery and begins to free fall from 20m. No drag. If it lands 60m away (in t

he x-direction) from where it began to fall, what was it's horizontal velocity while it fell

Answer:

Explanation:

Remark

At the time it takes to drop 20 m is the same time it takes to travel 60 m horizontally.

Givens

h = 20 m

hd = 60 m

g = 9.81

vi = 0

Formula

d = vi*t + 1/2 a * t^2                  We are solving for t

Solution

When the battery fails, the vertical initial velocity is 0. So we have to find the time it would take to drop 20 meters

d = 0*t + 1/2 * 9.81 a* t^2

20 = 4.91 * t^2                          Divide by 4.91

20/4.91 = 4.91 t^2 / 4.91    

4.073 = t^2                              Take the square root of both sides.

t = 2.02 seconds

Horizontal

d = 60 m

t = 2.02 seconds

v = ?

Note: there is no horizontal deceleration or acceleration

v = d/t

v = 60/2.02

Answer: v = 29.73 m/s

Two forces, F⃗ 1F→1F_1_vec and F⃗ 2F→2F_2_vec, act at a point. F⃗ 1F→1F_1_vec has a magnitude of 9.20 NN and is directed at an a
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

The x component of the resultant force is -7.27N.

Explanation:

To obtain the x component of the resultant force, first we have to know the x components of the other forces. To do this, we just have to do some trigonometry:

|F_{1x}|=|F_1|\cos\theta_1=9.20N\cos62.0\°=4.31N \\|F_{2x}|=|F_2|\cos\theta_2=5.00N\cos53.6\°=2.96N

Since both vectors are in the left side of the y-axis, they have a negative x component. So:

F_{1x}=-4.31N;\\F_{2x}=-2.96N

Finally, we sum both components to obtain the component of the resultant force:

F_{Rx}=-4.31N-2.96N=-7.27N

In words, the x component of the resultant force is -7.27N.

A closed circuit is formed by a solid conductor in contact with two parallel conducting rails that are closed on their left end,
castortr0y [4]

this is an equation that you need to solve for motional emf. motional emf=vBL, where v is velocity in meters/second, B is magnetic field in Teslas and L is length or distance the rails are apart from each other. when we plug everything into the formula given above, we get: motional emf=5m/s*0.80T*0.20m. solving all this we get 0.8 volts. pretty sure that since they are giving you the direction of the field, they want to know which way the current will flow . since the conductor is moving from left to right the area of the field is increasing which means magnetic flux is increasing as Ф(magnetic flux)=B(magnetic field)*A(area)*cosФ(little phi is the angle to the normal. in this case little fee is 0 degrees so the cosФ doesn't matter). so ↑Ф=B↑A. if magnetic flux is increasing, the induced magnetic field is in the opposite direction as the original magnetic field meaning the induced magnetic field will be out of the page. using the right hand rule which says that if the field is in to the page, the current should go clockwise and if the field is out of the page, the current is counterclockwise so that means that the current should be going counter clockwise since the induced field is going out of the screen. the top of the conducting wire will have its current go to the left and the bottom of the conducting wire will have the current go to the right.

These questions !plz !! i need help!!!
Nataly_w [17]

(6) Wagon B is at rest so it has no momentum at the start. If <em>v</em> is the velocity of the wagons locked together, then

(140 kg) (15 m/s) = (140 kg + 200 kg) <em>v</em>

==>   <em>v</em> ≈ 6.2 m/s

(7) False. If you double the time it takes to perform the same amount of work, then you <u>halve</u> the power output:

<em>E</em> <em>/</em> (2<em>t </em>) = 1/2 × <em>E/t</em> = 1/2 <em>P</em>

How do t cells differ from b cells
Natalka [10]
Both cells are formed in bone marrow.....but t cells matures into thymus....and b cells matures into bone marrow ! both helps in defense !

B cells can connect to antigens right on the surface of the invading virus or bacteria. 
T- cells can only connect to virus antigens on the outside of infected cells.

for more info , comment !
