A cannon, positioned on a hill, shoots a cannonball horizontally at 23 m/s. The cannonball hits the stone wall 1.96 m below the

irina [24]

Answer: 14. 49 m

Explanation:

We can solve this problem with the following equations:

$x=V_{o} cos \theta t$ (1)

$y-y_{o}=V_{o} sin \theta t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ (2)

Where:

$x$ is the horizontal distance between the cannon and the ball

$V_{o}=23 m/s$ is the cannonball initial velocity

$\theta=0\°$ since the cannonball was shoot horizontally

$t$ is the time

$y=0$ is the final height of the cannonball

$y_{o}=1.96 m$ is the initial height of the cannonball

$g=9.8 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity

Isolating $t$ from (2):

$t=\sqrt{-\frac{2(y-y_{o})}{g}}$ (3)

$t=\sqrt{-\frac{2(0 m-1.96 m)}{9.8 m/s^{2}}}$ (4)

$t=0.63 s$ (5)

Substituting (5) in (1):

$x=(23 m/s) cos(0\°) 0.63 s$ (6)

Finally:

$x=14.49 m$

If wheel turning at a constant rate completes 100 revolutions in 10 s its angular speed is:

GenaCL600 [577]

The frequency of the wheel is given by:
$f= \frac{N}{t}$
where N is the number of revolutions and t is the time taken. By using N=100 and t=10 s, we find the frequency of the wheel:
$f= \frac{100}{10 s}=10 s^{-1}$

And now we can find the angular speed of the wheel, which is related to the frequency by:
$\omega=2 \pi f=2 \pi (10 s^{-1})=62.8 s^{-1}$

Your mother is sure that you were driving too fast because she knows

photoshop1234 [79]

She knows the speed limit in the area, and also saw the speed you were going on the speedometer. The speed you were going was faster than the limit allowed, so that's how she knew you were going too fast.

URGENT!!! DUE AT 11:59, PLEASE DON’T POST A LINK FOR THIS ANSWER AND BE STRAIGHT FORWARD! Bronco the skydiver, whose mass is 100

kirill [66]

a = 7.8 m/s^2

Explanation:

Let Fnet = net force = ma

m = mass of the skydiver

a = acceleration caused by Fnet

W = weight = mg

f(air) = frictional force due to air resistance

Fnet = W - f(air)

= (100 kg)(9.8 m/s^2) - (200 N)

= 780 N

Therefore, the acceleration of the skydiver due to Fnet is

a = Fnet/m

= (780 N)/(100 kg)

= 7.8 m/s^2

In the United States, where can volcanoes be found?

Sedbober [7]

<span>The volcanoes of USA are located along the west coast, at the subduction of the Pacific and North American tectonic plates. During the 20th century there were only two eruptions in continental USA; Lassen in 1915, and Mt St Helens in 1980. Alaska and Hawaii contain currently active volcanoes. hope this helps:)</span>
