10. A safe place to use the trebuchet would be away from other buildings and people. A good example of a place would be a large field with no nearby structures. 
14. Many factors need to be kept consistent throughout the experiment. One example of a variable that would need to be consistent is the weight and size of the projectile. 
15. It is important to do many trials so that you can make sure that the results of each trial are nearly the same. If they are all vastly different, then it means that something has gone wrong. 

Sorry I was only able to answer a few questions, but I hope these few answers help! :)

A 103 kg physics professor has fallen into the Grand Canyon. Luckily, he managed to grab a branch and is now hanging 93 m below
siniylev [52]

Answer:

125.83672 seconds

Explanation:

P = Power of the horse = 1 hp = 746 W (as it is not given we have assumed the horse has the power of 1 hp)

m = Mass of professor = 103 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = Height of professor = 93 m

Work done would be equal to the potential energy

W=mgh\\\Rightarrow W=103\times 9.8\times 93\\\Rightarrow W=93874.2\ J

Power is given by

P=\frac{W}{t}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{W}{P}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{93874.2}{746}\\\Rightarrow t=125.83672\ seconds

The time taken by the horse to pull the professor is 125.83672 seconds

Consider two massless springs connected in parallel. Springs 1 and 2 have spring constants k1 and k2 and are connected via a thi
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

k1 + k2

Explanation:

Spring 1 has spring constant k1

Spring 2 has spring constant k2

After being applied by the same force, it is clearly mentioned that spring are extended by the same amount i.e. extension of spring 1 is equal to extension of spring 2.

x1 = x2

Since the force exerted to each spring might be different, let's assume F1 for spring 1 and F2 for spring 2. Hence the equations of spring constant for both springs are

k1 = F1/x -> F1 =k1*x

k2 = F2/x -> F2 =k2*x

While F = F1 + F2

Substitute equation of F1 and F2 into the equation of sum of forces

F = F1 + F2

F = k1*x + k2*x

= x(k1 + k2)

Note that this is applicable because both spring have the same extension of x (I repeat, EXTENTION, not length of the spring)

Considering the general equation of spring forces (Hooke's Law) F = kx,

The effective spring constant for the system is k1 + k2
