Supposing there's no air resistance, horizontal velocity is constant, which makes it very easy to solve for the amount of time that the rock was in the air.


Initial horizontal velocity is: <span>
cos(30 degrees) * 12m/s = 10.3923m/s 

15.5m / 10.3923m/s = 1.49s 

So the rock was in the air for 1.49 seconds. </span>

<span>

Now that we know that, we can use the following kinematics equation: 

d = v i * t + 1/2 * a * t^2 

Where d is the difference in y position, t is the time that the rock was in the air, and a is the vertical acceleration: -9.80m/s^2. </span>

<span>
Initial vertical velocity is sin(30 degrees) * 12m/s = 6 m/s 

So: 

d = 6 * 1.49 + (1/2) * (-9.80) * (1.49)^2 
d = 8.94 + -10.89</span>

d = -1.95<span>

<span>This means that the initial y position is 1.95 m higher than where the rock lands. </span></span>

What is the magnitude of the acceleration vector which causes a particle to move from velocity −5i−2j m/s to −6i+ 7j m/s in 8 se
shusha [124]

Answer:

Acceleration, a=\dfrac{1}{8}(-i+9j)\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Initial velocity of a particle in vector form, u = (-5i - 2j) m/s

Final velocity of particle in vector form, v = (-6i + 7j) m/s

Time taken, t = 8 seconds

We need to find the magnitude of acceleration vector. The changing of velocity w.r.t time is called acceleration of a particle. It is given by :

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}

a=\dfrac{(-6i+7j)\ m/s-(-5i-2j)\ m/s}{8\ s}    

a=\dfrac{(-i+9j)}{8\ s}\ m/s^2    

or

a=\dfrac{1}{8}(-i+9j)\ m/s^2

Hence, the value of acceleration vector is solved.

If two objects have the same mass, what determines the strength of the gravitational force between them? (4 points) Select one:
Evgen [1.6K]

According to this equation

F = G × m₁*m₂ ÷ r²

other than the mass, the distance also affects the gravitational force between two objects (same mass or not).

Therefore the correct answer is B. The distance between the objects

Future note* use formulas to help you figure these sort of questions out. (if they have a formula to begin with).
