Elastic energy of rubber straps is converted into the kinetic energy of the capsule which is converted into  gravitational potential energy as capsule.

<h3>What is energy transformation?</h3>

In accordance with the law of energy conservation, energy is neither created nor destroyed but can be converted from one form to another. This implies that energy is not lost and continues to exist.

The energy conversion that takes place as the 'rider' is strapped in is fired high into the sky by rubber straps is elastic energy of rubber straps is converted into the kinetic energy of the capsule which is converted into  gravitational potential energy as capsule.

what will be the effect on the acceleration due to gravity of the earth if it is compressed to a the size the moon?​
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

it gravitional pull on earth will increased becauste it is compress to a form of moon which is comperatively smaller so the gravitonal pull on per cm of earth will incrased so we can say that there will be change in acceleration due to gravity

If the magnitude of the magnetic force on a proton is F when it is moving at 14.0 o with respect to the field, what is the magni
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic force at 32.5⁰ to the field, is 2.22 F

Explanation:

Given;

magnitude of the magnetic force is F at 14.0⁰ with respect to the field.

To determine the magnitude of the magnetic force at 32.5⁰ to the field, we apply the following formula and solve with proportion;

f*Sin(14.0⁰) = F

f*Sin(32.5⁰) = ?

= \frac{f*Sin(32.5^o)}{f*Sin(14.0^o)}.F\\\\ =2.22 \ F

Therefore, the magnitude of the magnetic force at 32.5⁰ to the field, is 2.22 F

In class we calculated the range of a projectile launched on flat ground. Consider instead, a projectile is launched down-slope
zysi [14]

Answer:

With an initial speed of 10m/s at an angle 30° below the horizontal, and a height of 8m, the projectile travels 7.49m horizontally before it lands.

Explanation:

Since the horizontal motion is independent from the vertical motion, we can consider them separated. The horizonal motion has a constant speed, because there is no external forces in the horizontal axis. On the other hand, the vertical motion actually is affected by the gravitational force, so the projectile will be accelerated down with a magnitude g.

If we have the initial velocity v_o and its angle \theta, we can obtain the vertical component of the velocity v_{oy} using trigonometry:

v_{oy}=v_osin\theta

Therefore, if we know the height at which the projectile was launched, we can obtain the final velocity using the formula:

v_{fy}^{2} =v_{oy}^{2}+2gy\\\\ v_{fy}=\sqrt{v_{oy}^{2}+2gy }

Next, we compute the time the projectile lasts to reach the ground using the definition of acceleration:

g=\frac{v_{fy}-v_{oy}}{\Delta t} \\\\\Delta t= \frac{v_{fy}-v_{oy}}{g}=\frac{\sqrt{v_{oy}^{2}+2gy} -v_{oy}}{g}

Finally, from the equation of horizontal motion with constant speed, we have that:

x=v_{ox}\Delta t= v_{ox}\frac{\sqrt{v_{oy}^{2}+2gy} -v_{oy}}{g}

For example, if the projectile is launched at an angle 30° below the horizontal with an initial speed of 10m/s and a height 8m, we compute:

v_{ox}=10\frac{m}{s} cos30=8.66\frac{m}{s}\\v_{oy}=10\frac{m}{s} sin30=5\frac{m}{s}\\\\x=8.66\frac{m}{s} \frac{\sqrt{(5\frac{m}{s}) ^{2}+2(9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}})8m}-5\frac{m}{s}  }{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} } } =7.49m

In words, the projectile travels 7.49m horizontally before it lands.
