Answer:

a) 0.303 s b) 6.77 m/s c) - 2.97  m/s d) 7.39 m/s

Explanation:

horizontal distance travel = 2.050 m, vertical distance travel = 0.45 m

Using equation of linear motion

Sy = Uy t + 1/2 gt² Uy is the inital vertical component of the velocity, t is the time taken for the vertical motion in seconds, and S is the vertical distance traveled, taken downward vertical motion as negative

-0.45 = 0 - 0.5 × 9.81×t²

0.45 / (0.5 × 9.81) = t²

t = √0.0917 = 0.303 s

b) horizontal distance traveled = horizontal velocity (Ux) × t

Ux = horizontal distance traveled / t = 2.050 / 0.303 = 6.77 m/s

c) Velocity in the vertical direction can be calculated using

Vy = Uy - gt where g is negative since initial U is zero

Vy = - 9.81 × 0.303 = - 2.97  m/s

d) the magnitude of the velocity = resultant of the the two velocity

using Pythagoras theorem

the magnitude of the velocity = √ ( 6.77² + 2.97²) = 7.39 m/s

at angle = tan^-1 ( 2.97 / 6.77) =  23.69⁰

Is this true or false ethics deals with morals and values and can be measured and tested using the scientific method.
sammy [17]

This is false. Even though the first part is true, the second isn't because morals and values are simply widely accepted opinions that most humans have, and you can't test opinions with the scientific method, only facts!

A toy gun uses a spring to project a 4.5-g soft rubber sphere horizontally. The spring constant is 8.0 N/m, the barrel of the gu
marishachu [46]

Answer:

1.93 m/s

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Mass = 4.5g = 0.0045kg

Spring constant = 8.0 N/m

Length of barrel = 13 cm = 0.013m

Frictional force = 0.035N

Compression = 5.8 cm = 0.058m

First, we find the P. E. stored in the spring:

P. E. = ½*k*x²

P. E. = ½ * 8 * 0.058² = 0.013J

Then, we find the work done by the frictional force while the sphere is leaving the barrel of the gun:

Work = Force * distance

The distance here is the length of the barrel.

Work = 0.035 * 0.13 = 0.0046 J

The kinetic energy of the sphere can now be found:

K. E. = P. E. - Work done

K. E. = 0.013 - 0.0046 = 0.0084J

We can now find the speed using the formula for K. E.:

K. E. = ½*m*v²

0.0084 = ½ * 0.0045 * v²

v² = 0.0084/0.00255 = 3.733

=> v = 1.93 m/s

A wooden block has a mass of 562 g and a volume of 72 cm3. What is the density?
dangina [55]
Mass/volume is density so it’s 562g/72cm^3 so it’s roughly 7.805g per cubic centimeter
