26.54 m/s  is the magnitude of its velocity just before it strikes the ground

h=100m,v=20m/s,g=9.8m/s

time it takes to reach the ground,

[t=\sqrt2h/g],[=\sqrt2*100/9.8=4.51s]

x= 120m

t= 4.52

v= x/t

v= 120/4.52

v= 26.54 m/s

The "speed at which an object changes its location" can be expressed using a vector number called velocity. Consider a person who moves swiftly while taking two steps forward and two steps back while remaining in one location. Velocity is a vector quantity. Therefore, velocity is cognizant of direction. The direction must be taken into account when determining an object's velocity. A speed of 55 mph is not enough information. The direction must be used to appropriately depict the item's velocity. Simply said, the direction of the velocity vector indicates the direction of motion of an object.

A person is nearsighted with a far point of 75.0 cm. a. What focal length contact lens is needed to give him normal vision
BigorU [14]

Complete Question

The  complete question is  shown on the first uploaded image  

Answer:

a

  f=  -75 \ cm =  - 0.75 \ m

b

  P  =  -1.33 \ diopters

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  image distance is  d_i =  -75 cm

The value of the image is negative because it is on the same side with the corrective glasses

    The  object distance is  d_o =  \infty

The  reason object distance  is because the object father than it being picture by the eye

General focal length is mathematically represented as

              \frac{1}{f}  =  \frac{1}{d_i}  -   \frac{1}{d_o}

substituting values

             \frac{1}{f}  =  \frac{1}{-75}  -   \frac{1}{\infty}

=>         f=  -75 \ cm =  - 0.75 \ m

Generally the power of the corrective lens is  mathematically represented as

        P  =  \frac{1}{f}

substituting values

       P  =  \frac{1}{-0.75}

        P  =  -1.33 \ diopters

A projectile is launched upward at an angle of 70⁰ from the horizontal and strikes the ground a certain distance down range. For
OLga [1]

Answer:20°

Explanation:

Recall

Range R of a projectile is given by U^2sin2A/g

We're U = velocity,A= angle of projection and g is acceleration due to gravity

From the question the range R are the same

Hence R1=R2

U1^2sin2A/g=U2^2sin2B/g

But U1=U2 and g=g

Hence sin2A=sin 2B

Sin 2*70= sin2*B

0.6427=sin2B

B=sin inverse(0.6427)=40/2=20°
