<span>The intensity of an earthquake is dependent on one's proximity to the focus of the quake, also called the "epicenter" and is based on observations of the shaking of the ground on humans, structures, and the natural landscape.</span>

Will Mark Brainliest if Correct PLZ!!!!! A bullet is shot at some angle above the horizontal at an initial velocity of 87m/s on
qaws [65]

Answer:

≅50°

Explanation:

We have a bullet flying through the air with only gravity pulling it down, so let's use one of our kinematic equations:

Δx=V₀t+at²/2

And since we're using Δx, V₀ should really be the initial velocity in the x-direction. So:

Δx=(V₀cosθ)t+at²/2

Now luckily we are given everything we need to solve (or you found the info before posting here):

  • Δx=760 m
  • V₀=87 m/s
  • t=13.6 s
  • a=g=-9.8 m/s²; however, at 760 m, the acceleration of the bullet is 0 because it has already hit the ground at this point!

With that we can plug the values in to get:

760=(87)(cos\theta )(13.6)+\frac{(0)(13.6^{2}) }{2}

760=(1183.2)(cos\theta)

cos\theta=\frac{760}{1183.2}

\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac{760}{1183.2})\approx50^{o}

Find the tension in the two ropes that are holding the 4.2 kg object in place.
Blababa [14]

Answer:

The tension in the two ropes are;

T1 = 23.37N T2 = 35.47N

Explanation:

Given mass of the object to be 4.2kg, the weight acting on the bag will be W= mass × acceleration due to gravity

W = 4.2×10 = 42N

The tension acting on the bag plus the weight are three forces acting on the bag. We need to find tension in the two ropes that will keep the object in equilibrium.

Using triangular law of force and sine rule to get the tension we have;

If rope 1 is at 57.6° with respect to the vertical and rope 2 is at 33.8° with respect to the vertical, our sine rule formula will give;

T1/sin33.8° = T2/sin57.6° = 42/sin{180-(33.8°+57.6°)}

T1/sin33.8° = T2/sin57.6° = 42/sin88.6°

From the equality;

T1/sin33.8° = 42/sin88.6°

T1 = sin33.8°×42/sin88.6°

T1 = 23.37N

To get T2,

T2/sin57.6°= 42/sin88.6°

T2 = sin57.6°×42/sin88.6°

T2 = 35.47N
