To answer this question, first we take note that the maximum height that can be reached by an object thrown straight up at a certain speed is calculated through the equation,
                            Hmax = v²sin²θ/2g
where v is the velocity, θ is the angle (in this case, 90°) and g is the gravitational constant. Since all are known except for v, we can then solve for v whichi s the initial velocity of the projectile. 

Once we have the value of v, we multiply this by the total time traveled by the projectile to solve for the value of the range (that is the total horizontal distance).

Answer:

R = \frac{u^2}{g}

Explanation:

Maximum distance covered by the stone can be calculated as follows:

R = \frac{u^2 sin2\theta}{g}

where, u is the initial velocity, θ is the launch angle and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

For maximum horizontal distance, θ should be 45°. Then maximum distance covered would be:

R = \frac{u^2}{g}

A horizontal uniform bar of mass 3 kg and length 3.0 m is hung horizontally on two vertical strings. String 1 is attached to the
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

T₁ = 2.8125 N

Explanation:

The equilibrium equation of the moments at the point where string 2 is located on the bar is like this:

∑M₂ = 0

M₂ = F*d

Where:

∑M₂  : Algebraic sum of moments in the the point (2) of the bar

M₂ : moment in the point 2 ( N*m)

F  : Force ( N)

d  : Horizontal distance of the force to the point 2 ( N*m

Data

mb = 3 kg : mass of the  bar

mm = 1.5 kg :  mass of the  monkey

L = 3m : lengt of the bar

g = 9.8 m/s²: acceleration due to gravity

Forces acting on the bar

T₁ : Tension in string 1 (vertical upward)

T₂ : Tension in string 2 (vertical upward)

Wb :Weihgt of the bar (vertical downward)

Wm: Weihgt of the monkey  (vertical downward)

Calculation of the weight of the bar (Wb) and of the monkey(Wm)

Wb = m*g = 3 kg*9.8 m/s² = 29.4 N

Wm = m*g = 1.5 kg*9.8 m/s² = 14.7 N

Calculation of the distances  from forces the point 2

d₁₂ = (3-0.6) m = 2.4m  : Distance from T1 to the point 2

db₂ = (3÷2) m = 1.5 m : Distance from Wb to the point 2

dm₂ = (3÷2) m = 1.5 m : Distance from Wm to the point 2

Equilibrium  of moments at the point  2 on the bar

∑M₂ = 0

T₁(d₁₂) - Wb(db₂) - Wm(dm₂) = 0

T₁(2.4) -3*(1.5) - 1.5*(1.5) = 0

T₁(2.4) =3*(1.5) + 1.5*(1.5)

T₁(2.4) =6.75

T₁ = 6.75 / (2.4)

T₁ = 2.8125 N

A 975-kg elevator accelerates upward at 0.754 m/s2, pulled by a cable of negligible mass. Find the tension force in the cable.
Zina [86]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts of equilibrium and Newton's second law.

According to the description given, it is under constant ascending acceleration, and the balance of the forces corresponding to the tension of the rope and the weight of the elevator must be equal to said acceleration. So

\sum F = ma

T-mg = ma

Here,

T = Tension

m = Mass

g = Gravitational Acceleration

a = Acceleration (upward)

Rearranging to find T,

T = m(g+a)

T = (975)(9.8+0.754)

T= 10290.15N

Therefore the tension force in the cable is 10290.15N

What is horoscope? what is its uses
Lemur [1.5K]
What is horoscope?
A forecast of a person's future, typically including delineation of character and circumstances, based on the relative positions of the stars and planets at the time of that person's birth.

   *
A short forecast for people born under a particular sign, especially as published in a newspaper or magazine.
 
    *
A birth chart.
 

What is its uses?
It can also be calculated for an event, a question, and even a country. Symbols are used to represent planets, signs, and geometric connections called aspects. In most cases, the horoscope in Western astrology is drawn on a circular wheel.

A sound is recorded at 19 decibels. What is the intensity of the sound?
sp2606 [1]

1 \times 10^{-10.1} \mathrm{Wm}^{-2} is the intensity of the sound.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

The range of sound intensity that people can recognize is so large (including 13 magnitude levels). The intensity of the weakest audible noise is called the hearing threshold. (intensity about 1 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}). Because it is difficult to imagine numbers in such a large range, it is advisable to use a scale from 0 to 100.

This is the goal of the decibel scale (dB).  Because logarithm has the property of recording a large number and returning a small number, the dB scale is based on a logarithmic scale. The scale is defined so that the hearing threshold has intensity level of sound as 0.

                     \text { Intensity }(d B)=(10 d B) \times \log _{10}\left(\frac{I}{I_{0}}\right)

Where,

I = Intensity of the sound produced

I_{0} = Standard Intensity of sound of 60 decibels = 1 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}

So for 19 decibels, determine I as follows,

                   19 d B=(10 d B) \times \log _{10}\left(\frac{I}{1 \times 10^{-12} W m^{-2}}\right)

                  \log _{10}\left(\frac{1}{1 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}}\right)=\frac{19}{10}

                  \log _{10}\left(\frac{1}{1 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}}\right)=1.9

When log goes to other side, express in 10 to the power of that side value,

                  \left(\frac{I}{1 \times 10^{-12} W m^{-2}}\right)=10^{1.9}

                  I=1 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{Wm}^{-2} \times 10^{1.9}=1 \times 10^{-12-1.9}=1 \times 10^{-10.1} \mathrm{Wm}^{-2}
