Answer: Elements are pure substances which are composed of only one type of atom while compounds are substances which are formed by two or more different types of elements that are united chemically in fixed proportions.
Explanation:
Answer:
t = 180 / 1.4 = 129 sec (time to swim horizontally across river)
S = 129 sec * V where V is speed of current and S is the distance he will be carried downstream
The problem does not specify V the speed of the river
part 1
mass = ρ x V
mass = 1739 kg/m³ x 3.8 km³ = 6608.2 kg
PE (potential energy)= mgh
PE = 6608.2 kg x 9.81 x 403
PE = 2.61 x 10⁷ J
part 2
megaton of TNT (Mt) =4.2 x 10¹⁵ J
convert PE to Mt:
2.61 x 10⁷ J : 4.2 x 10¹⁵ J = 6.21 x 10⁻⁹ Mt
The horizontal and vertical components of a projectile's velocity are independent of each other.
Answer: Option C
<u>Explanation:</u>
The path of a projectile is determined by two components of motion. They are termed as horizontal and the vertical components. Since both components velocity are perpendicular to each other, so it can stated that they are independent of each other.
Even it can seen that when the horizontal components of velocity is constant, then there will be change in the vertical components of velocity leading to free fall projectile path.
And in the absence of gravity, there will be change in the horizontal components of velocity with zero vertical component of velocity. Thus, the horizontal and the vertical components of a projectile’s velocity are seemed to be independent of each other.
