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! :)

What is meant by constructive and destructive interference
LenaWriter [7]
In waveform physics, constructive and destructive interference describes the way two different waves interact with one another. If two waves are aligned such that the peaks of both are in the same spot, the waves experience constructive interference - the two add together and become a single, more powerful wave. The opposite happens if the peak of one meets the trough of the other - the two cancel each other out, and the magnitude of the combined wave is lesser than the individual waves. There are also other, more complex versions of interference if they don’t align cleanly, but the most common descriptions of interference are the ones described above.

Hope this helps!

PLEASEEEE HEEEEELP!!!!!
8090 [49]

Answer:

Before:

p_{truck}=16400\ kg.m/s

p_{car}=10000\ kg.m/s

After:

p_{truck}=8000\ kg.m/s

p_{car}=8400\ kg.m/s

v_{fcar}=8.4\ m/s

F=9333.33 \ Nw

Explanation:

<u>Conservation of Momentum</u>

Two objects of masses m1 and m2 moving at speeds v1o and v2o respectively have a total momentum of

p_1=m_1v_{1o}+m_2v_{2o}

After the collision, they have speeds of v1f and v2f and the total momentum is

p_2=m_1v_{1f}+m_2v_{2f}

Impulse J is defined as

J=F.t

Where F is the average impact force and t is the time it lasted

Also, the impulse is equal to the change of momentum

J=\Delta p

As the total momentum is conserved:

p_1=p_2

m_1v_{1o}+m_2v_{2o}=m_1v_{1f}+m_2v_{2f}

We can compute the speed of the second object by solving the above equation for v2f

\displaystyle v_{2f}=\frac{ m_1v_{1o}+m_2v_{2o} -m_1v_{1f} }{  m_2 }

The given data is

m_1=2000\ kg

m_2=1000\ kg\\v_{1o}=8.2\ m/s\\v_{2o}=0\ m/s\\v_{1f}=4\ m/s

a) The impulse will be computed at the very end of the answer

b) Before the collision

p_{truck}=2000\cdot 8.2=16400\ kg.m/s

p_{car}=1000\cdot 0=0\ kg.m/s

c) After collision

p_{truck}=2000\cdot 4=8000\ kg.m/s

Compute the car's speed:

\displaystyle v_{2f}=\frac{ 16400+0 -8000 }{ 1000 }

v_{2f}=8.4\ m/s

And the car's momentum is

p_{car}=1000\cdot 8.4=8400\ kg.m/s

The Impulse J of the system is zero because the total momentum is conserved, i.e. \Delta p=0.

We can compute the impulse for each object

J_1=\Delta p_1=2000(4-8.2)=-8400 \N.s

The force can be computed as

\displaystyle F=\frac{J}{t}=-\frac{8400}{0.9}=-9333.33 \ Nw

The force on the car has the same magnitude and opposite sign

What people group was not targeted for estermination by the germans?​
madam [21]

Native Americans, South Sea Islanders, Australian aborigines, Uighurs, Inuits, Yupiks, Aleuts, Incas, Mayans, Canaanites, Hittites, Hutu and Tutsi who did not live in Germany, and blond, blue-eyed Aryans who did.  Just about everyone else was on the list distributed to the Orkin men, beginning in the late 1930s.  Especially Jews.

A man applies a force of 100 Newtons to a rock for 60 seconds, but the rock does not not move. What is the amount of work done b
frozen [14]
Well if the rock doesn't move, then there is no amount of work done. There is no work done on an object if a force is applied to the object but it DOES NOT change its position, in this case is the rock.
