Answer:11.1
Explanation:
Three significant figures
Answer:
(C) greater than zero but less than 45° above the horizontal
Explanation:
The range of a projectile is given by R = v²sin2θ/g.
For maximum range, sin2θ = 1 ⇒ 2θ = sin⁻¹(1) = 90°
2θ = 90°
θ = 90°/2 = 45°
So the maximum horizontal distance R is in the range 0 < θ < 45°, if θ is the angle above the horizontal.
1. Most PE, because PE is directly proportional to distance (height)
Height: 100 meters
Speed: 0 mph
2. Most KE, because KE is directly proportional to speed
Height: 10 meters
Speed: 40 mph
3. Most TE, average KE
Height: 10 meters
Speed: 40 mph
4. The skater gains thermal energy as she goes down the slope, because the speed of the skater increases, so it increases the total kinetic energy of the particles, and makes them vibrate faster, resulting in a higher temperature.
