A projectile is thrown at an angle 30° from horizontal. Which statement about its vertical component of velocity is true?

1 answer:

3 0

Answer: A
There is constant downward acceleration due to the gravitational force exerted on the object due to the earth's gravitational field
By Newton's second law,
Force=Acceleration * Mass

Since vertical velocity is upward while vertical acceleration is downward, vertical velocity decreases as it moves upward.

A 5kg wheel rolls off a flat roof of a 50 m tall building at 12m/s.

Olegator [25]

Explanation:

a) Given in the y direction (taking down to be positive):

Δy = 50 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 10 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

50 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (10 m/s²) t²

t = 3.2 s

b) Given in the x direction:

v₀ = 12 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 3.2 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (12 m/s) (3.2 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (3.2 s)²

Δx = 38 m

A simple pendulum consists of a point mass suspended by a weightless, rigid wire in a uniform gravitation field. Check all that

9966 [12]

Answer:

f.The period is independent of the suspended mass.

Explanation:

The period of a pendulum is given by

$T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

where

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the acceleration due to gravity

From the formula, we see that:

1) the period of the pendulum depends only on its length, L, and it is proportional to the square root of the length

2) the period does not depend neither on the mass of the pendulum, nor on its amplitude of oscillation

So, the only correct statements are

f.The period is independent of the suspended mass.

Note: statement "e.The period is proportional to the length of the wire" is also wrong, because the period is NOT proportional to the length of the wire, but it is proportional to the square root of it.

Which of these help create radio waves?

inysia [295]

The one that help create radio waves is :
Changing electric and magnetic fields applied at right angles

Radio waves are transverse wave, which means that the oscillations occurring perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer

hope this helps
