A horse is grazing for food. It trots rightward 15 m to eat a carrot, then walks rightward 20 m, to another carrot, then turns l

eftwards to walk 4m, to bite an apple. The horse walks a total time of 74 seconds. What is the magnitude of its average velocity?
(** HINT- you may want to draw this out, remember with VELOCITY direction matters-opposite vectors cancel out-with SPEED direction does not matter).

Answer:

<h3>0.42s</h3>

Explanation:

Velocity = Displacement/time

Displacement of the horse is the distance covered in a specified direction

Total distance of the horse towards the right = 15m + 20m = 35m

Total distance of the horse towards the left = 4m

Displacement = Distance towards the right - Distance towards the left

Displacement = 35m-4m

Displacement =  31m

Time taken = 74seconds

substitute the values gotten into the velocity formula

average velocity = 31m/74s

average velocity = 0.42m/s

Hence the magnitude of its average velocity is 0.42s

A projectile of mass 2.0 kg is fired in the air at an angle of 40.0 ° to the horizon at a speed of 50.0 m/s. At the highest poin
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

a) The fragment speeds of 0.3 kg is 33.3 m / s on the y axis

                                         0.7 kg is 109.4 ms on the x axis

b)  Y = 109.3 m

Explanation:

This is a moment and projectile launch exercise.

a) Let's start by finding the initial velocity of the projectile

       sin 40 = voy / v₀

       v_{oy} = v₀ sin 40

       v_{oy} = 50.0 sin40

       v_{oy} = 32.14 m / s

       cos 40 = v₀ₓ / V₀

       v₀ₓ = v₀ cos 40

       v₀ₓ = 50.0 cos 40

       v₀ₓ = 38.3 m / s

Let us define the system as the projectile formed t all fragments, for this system the moment is conserved in each axis

Let's write the amounts

Initial mass of the projectile M = 2.0 kg

Fragment mass 1 m₁ = 1.0 kg and its velocity is vₓ = 0 and v_{y} = -10.0 m / s

Fragment mass 2 m₂ = 0.7 kg moves in the x direction

Fragment mass 3 m₃ = 0.3 kg moves up (y axis)

Moment before the break

X axis

     p₀ₓ = m v₀ₓ

Y Axis y

    p_{oy} = 0

After the break

X axis

   p_{fx} = m₂ v₂

Axis y

     p_{fy} = m₁ v₁ + m₃ v₃

Let's write the conservation of the moment and calculate

Y Axis  

     0 = m₁ v₁ + m₃ v₃

Let's clear the speed of fragment 3

     v₃ = - m₁ v₁ / m₃

     v₃ = - (-10) 1 / 0.3

     v₃ = 33.3 m / s

X axis

     M v₀ₓ = m₂ v₂

     v₂ = v₀ₓ M / m₂

     v₂ = 38.3  2 / 0.7

     v₂ = 109.4 m / s

The fragment speeds of 0.3 kg is 33.3 m / s on the y axis

                                         0.7 kg is 109.4 ms on the x axis

b) The speed of the fragment is 33.3 m / s and has a starting height of where the fragmentation occurred, let's calculate with kinematics

       v_{fy}² = v_{oy}² - 2 gy

       0 =  v_{oy}²-2gy

       y =  v_{oy}² / 2g

       y = 32.14² / 2 9.8

       y = 52.7 m

This is the height where the break occurs, which is the initial height for body movement of 0.3 kg

      v_{f}² =  v_{y}² - 2 g y₂

      0 =  v_{y}² - 2 g y₂

     y₂ =  v_{y}² / 2g

     y₂ = 33.3²/2 9.8

     y₂ = 56.58 m

Total body height is

      Y = y + y₂

      Y = 52.7 + 56.58

     Y = 109.3 m

How long must a pendulum be to have a period of 4.6 5 on Neptune, where g = 11.15 m/s?​
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

5.98 m

Explanation:

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

T^2=4\pi ^2L/g\\L = gT^2/(4\pi^2) = 11.15*4.6²/(4π²) = 5.98 m

If a personal pan pizza (6 inches in diameter) has 600 calories, how many calories would you consume if you were to eat a large
Neko [114]

Answer:

2400 calories

Explanation:

given,

diameter of pizza,d₁ = 6 inches

calories of the 6 inches pizza = 600 calories

diameter of large size of pizza, d₂ = 12 inches

calories of the 12 inches pizza = ?

Area of the 6 inches pizza

A₁ = π x 3² = 9 π

Area of the 12 inches pizza

A₂ = π x 6² = 36 π

Ratio of 12 inch pizza to 6 inches

  =\dfrac{36\pi}{9\pi}

  =\dfrac{4}{1}

calories of the pizza

\dfrac{x}{600}=\dfrac{4}{1}

    x = 2400 calories

Pizza of 12 inches is of calories is equal to 2400 calories
