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! :)

Use your knowledge of waves to explain why echoes occur. Use your explanation to devise a system to measure distances to objects
german

Explanation:

Echoes occur due to the reflection of sound from any obstacle, but not all the reflected sound waves lead to the phenomenon of echo. For the echo to be heard it actually depends upon the human perception as well, human ears can encounter the difference between the sound wave directly form the source and the reflected sound waves only if there is a minimum time gap of one-tenth of a second. For this time gap in the atmosphere at normal temperature and pressure the obstacle must be at least 7 meters away from the sound source.

uniform disk with mass 40.0 kg and radius 0.200 m is pivoted at its center about a horizontal, frictionless axle that is station
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

The magnitude of the tangential velocity is v= 0.868 m/s

The magnitude of the resultant acceleration at that point is  a = 4.057 m/s^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The mass of the uniform disk is m_d = 40.0kg

       The radius of the uniform disk is R_d = 0.200m

       The force applied on the disk is F_d = 30.0N

Generally the angular speed i mathematically represented as

             w = \sqrt{2 \alpha  \theta}

Where \theta is the angular displacement given from the question as

           \theta  = 0.2000 rev = 0.2000 rev * \frac{2 \pi \ rad }{1 rev}

                 =1.257\  rad

   \alpha is the angular acceleration which is mathematically represented as

                    \alpha = \frac{torque }{moment \ of  \ inertia}  = \frac{F_d * R_d}{I}

    The moment of inertial is mathematically represented as

                     I = \frac{1}{2} m_dR^2_d

Substituting values

                    I = 0.5 * 40 * 0.200^2

                        = 0.8kg \cdot m^2

Considering the equation for angular acceleration

               \alpha = \frac{torque }{moment \ of  \ inertia}  = \frac{F_d * R_d}{I}

Substituting values

               \alph\alpha = \frac{(30.0)(0.200)}{0.8}

                   = 7.5 rad/s^2

Considering the equation for angular velocity

    w = \sqrt{2 \alpha  \theta}

Substituting values

     w =\sqrt{2 * (7.5) * 1.257}

         = 4.34 \ rad/s

The tangential velocity of a given point on the rim is mathematically represented as

                 v = R_d w

Substituting values

                    = (0.200)(4.34)

                     v= 0.868 m/s

The radial acceleration at hat point  is mathematically represented as

            \alpha_r = \frac{v^2}{R}

                  = \frac{0.868^2}{0.200^2}

                 = 3.7699 \ m/s^2

The tangential acceleration at that point is mathematically represented as

               \alpha _t = R \alpha

Substituting values

           \alpha _t = (0.200) (7.5)

                 = 1.5 m/s^2

The magnitude of resultant acceleration at that point is

                 a = \sqrt{\alpha_r ^2+ \alpha_t^2 }

Substituting values

                a = \sqrt{(3.7699)^2 + (1.5)^2}

                   a = 4.057 m/s^2
