Answer:

a) transferring energy

Explanation:

A linkage is an assembly of parts connected together to control forces and movement. The connections between links are called joints and are used for ensuring movement, pure rotation or sliding.

Linkages provides a means in which kinetic energy is being transferred in different directions within a system. This Linkages can be used to Change force direction, size of force applied or the motion created by the force.

A vector is parallel to the y axis, what is it x component?<br>

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Explanation:

A vector is parallel to the y axis .

Let its magnitude be A . So the vector can be represented as A j .

where i and j are unit vectors in x and y axis direction .

The x component of A j will be dot product of A j with i

The x component of A j = A j . i

= A x 0 [ Since j . i = 0 ]

= 0

A boy throws a baseball onto a roof and it rolls back down and off the roof with a speed of 3.05 m/s. If the roof is pitched at

vekshin1

1) Time in the air: 0.78 s

The motion of the ball is a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:

- A horizontal motion with constant horizontal velocity

- A vertical motion with constant downward acceleration of

$g=-9.8 m/s^2$ (acceleration of gravity)

The initial vertical velocity is

$u_y = u sin \theta = (3.05)(sin(-40^{\circ}))=-1.96 m/s$

where the negative sign means the direction is downward.

The vertical position of the ball is given by

$y(t) = h + u_y t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

where

h = 4.50 m is the initial heigth of the ball when it starts falling down

The ball reaches the ground when y = 0, so we have:

$0 = 4.50 -1.96t-4.9t^2$

This is a second-order equation; solving for t, we get

t = -1.18 s

t = 0.78 s

We discard the negative solution since it has no physical meaning, so we can say that the ball spent 0.78 s in the air.

2) Horizontal distance: 1.83 m

For this second part of the problem, we just have to consider the horizontal motion of the ball.

As we said previously, the motion of the ball along the horizontal direction is a uniform motion with constant velocity, which is given by

$v_x = u cos \theta = (3.05)(cos (-40.0^{\circ}))=2.34 m/s$

where u = 3.05 m/s is the initial speed and $\theta$ the angle of projection.

For a uniform motion, we can use the following relationship between distance covered and velocity:

$d=v_x t$

and substituting t = 0.78 s, we find the total distance travelled along the horizontal direction by the ball before reaching the ground:

$d=(2.34)(0.78)=1.83 m$

How to find a planet’s gravitational field strength using its radius?

grin007 [14]

The gravitational field strength is approximately equal to 10 N.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Gravitational field strength is the measure of gravitational force acting on any object placed on the surface of the planet. Generally, the mass of the object is considered as 1 kg.

So the gravitational field strength will be equal to the gravitational force acting on the object.

The formula for gravitational field strength is

$g = \frac{F}{m}$

Here g is the gravitational field strength, m is the mass of the object placed on the surface and F is the gravitational force acting on the object.

Since, the mass of any object placed on the surface of earth will be negligible compared to the mass of Earth, so the mass of the object is considered as 1 kg.

Then the g = F

And $F =\frac{GMm}{r^{2} }$

Here G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of Earth and m is the mass of the object placed on the surface, while r is the radius of the Earth.

$g = F = \frac{6 \times 10^{24} \times 6.67 \times 10^{-11} \times 1}{(6.6 \times 10^{6}) ^{2} }$

$g = 0.977 \times 10^1= 9.77\ N$

So, the gravitational field strength is approximately equal to 10 N.

What part of the scientific method tests the hypothesis?

blagie [28]

Answer:

A hypothesis is a conjecture, based on knowledge obtained while seeking answers to the question. The hypothesis might be very specific, or it might be broad. Scientists then test hypotheses by conducting experiments or studies.
