The equation y = Vo cos(alfa) t - 16t^2 implies that the mortar landed at the same level that it was fire and that fire angle is also 75°.

With that said, let us work on the parametric equations

y = 0 = Vo sin(alfa) t - 16t^2, which by factoring =>

t (Vo sin(alfa) - 16t) = 0 => t = Vo sin(alfa) / 16 .....(1)

x = 2500 = Vo cos(alfa) t => t = 2500 / [Vo cos(alfa)] ..... (2)

Now make (1) equal to (2)

Vo sin(alfa) / 16 = 2500 / [Vo cos(alfa)] =>

Vo^2 sin(alfa)cos(alfa) = 2500ft*16ft/s^2 =>

Vo^2 = 2500*16 / [sin(75°)cos(75)] = 2500*16/0.25 = 160,000 ft^2/s^2

Vo = √(160,000) ft/s = 400 ft/s

Answer: option 5. 400 ft/s

Just about everyone at one time or another has been burned by hot water or steam. This problem compares the heat input to your s

kkurt [141]

Answer:

B. Steam burns the skin worse than hot water because the latent heat of vaporization is released as well.

Explanation:

It is given that both steam and the boiling water when in contact with the skin cools down from 100 to 34 degrees Celsius.

For any substance of mass m, the heat required to change the temperature by $\Delta T$ is $mC\Delta T$ (S.I. unit = Joules).

where C, the specific heat capacity is the same and a constant for both the condensed steam and the boiling water.

But, there is a "hidden" energy (heat) released by the steam called latent heat

(given by mL, L = specific latent heat) which allows the phase transition (gas to liquid). While both of them are at the same temperature, their energy (heat) is different, which is why steam causes burns worse than boiling water

UN BLOQUE TIENE DE DIMENSIONES AB = 4 cm, BC = 2.5 cm, BF = 6 cm Y UNA MASA DE 300 gr  DETERMINE SU VOLUMEN  HALLE SU DENSIDAD

torisob [31]

Responder:

- Volumen del bloque = 60cm³

- Densidad = 5g / cm³

Explicación:

Dada la dimensión del bloque

AB = 4 cm, BC = 2.5 cm y BF = 6 cm

Volumen del bloque = Largo × Ancho × Alto

Volumen del bloque = AB × BC × BF

Volumen del bloque = 4 × 2.5 × 6

Volumen del bloque = 60cm³

Dada la masa del bloque = 300 gramos

Densidad = Masa / Volumen

Densidad = 300g / 60cm³

Densidad = 5g / cm³

Algunos materiales que tienen una densidad de 5g / cm³ o cercanos son radio, germanio y europio con densidades de 5g / cm³, 5.3g / cm³ y 5.24g / cm³ respectivamente.
