Data:

Vo = 120 ft / s

α = 30°

t = 5 s

x = ?

Formulas:

cos(α) = Vo,x / Vo => Vo,x = Vo * cos(α)

x = Vo,x * t

Calculations:

Vo,x = 120 ft / s * cos(30) = 103.92 ft /s

x = 103.92 ft/s * 5 s = 519.6 ft

Answer: 519.6 ft

After rubbing a balloon on your shirt, your hair sticks up when the balloon is near your head. Explain how tiny particles on you
skad [1K]
Almost right. protons are positive and electrons are negative. so when you run the balloon on your hair, electrons are transferred between them (i’m not sure which direction) and now one is positively charged as it lost negative particles and one is negative as it gained negative particles (electrons). opposite charges attract

What will occur if a resistor with high resistance is inserted into a circuit?
Anton [14]
If the resistor is in series with the rest of the circuit then a is the correct answer. The voltage across the resistor in series with another resistor is
V \frac{R}{R+r}
where R is the big resistor and r is the small one and V is the total voltage drop across both.  This is called a voltage divider

Some birds migrate 20,000 miles. If 1 mile equals 1.6 kilometers, calculate the distance these birds fly in kilometers.
faust18 [17]
Set up a proportion

1 mile/1.6 km = 20,000miles/x

Cross Multiply
x = (20,000) * (1.6)
x = 32,000 kilometers

What does convection mean
Sladkaya [172]
Convection is the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat
