A rock is thrown upward from the level ground in such a way that the maximum height of its flight is equal to its horizontal ran

ge R.
(a) At what angle θ is the rock thrown? °
(b) In terms of its original range R, what is the range Rmax the rock can attain if it is launched at the same speed but at the optimal angle for maximum range? Rmax =
(c) Would your answer to part (a) be different if the rock is thrown with the same speed on a different planet? Yes No

Answer

a) For the rock

\dfrac{v_t^2sin 2\theta}{g} = \dfrac{v_t^2sin^2\theta}{2g}

2sin\thetacos\theta = \dfrac{sin^2\theta}{2}

2cos\theta = \dfrac{sin\theta}{2}

tan\theta = 4

\theta = tan^{-1} 4

\theta = 76^0

b) \theta = 45^0 for maximum range

\dfrac{d_{max}}{d}=\dfrac{(v_tcos 45^0)(2v_tsin 45^0)g}{(v_tcos 76^0)(2v_tsin 76^0)g}

\dfrac{d_{max}}{d}=\dfrac{0.707\times 0.707)}{0.97\times 0.242}

\dfrac{d_{max}}{d}=2.129

d_{max}=2.129 d

c) The value of θ is the same on every planet as g divides out.

A 20 kilogram ball rolls down a 10 meter ramp at the rate of 15 meters per second. The kinetic energy is joules
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:2250J

Explanation:

mass(m)=20kg

velocity(v)=15m/s

Kinetic energy=(m x v^2)/2

Kinetic energy =(20 x 15^2)/2

Kinetic energy =(20x15x15)/2

Kinetic energy=4500/2

Kinetic energy=2250J

What is the purpose of an experiment design?
Eddi Din [679]
An experimental design is used to assign variables for testing. In contrast to a control design where nothing is changed, the experimental design allows you to test various new inputs to see how they would vary from the original results.

In certain cases, using both the momentum principle and energy principle to analyze a system is useful, as they each can reveal
kramer

Explanation:

The gravitational force equation is the following:

F_G = G * \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2} \\

Where:

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67408 * 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}

m1 & m2 = the mass of two related objects

r = distance between the two related objects

The problem gives you everything you need to plug into the formula, except for the gravitational constant. Let me know if you need further clarification.

A woman launches a boat from one shore of a straight river and wants to land at the point directly on the opposite shore. If the
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

If she stands on the North side of a river flowing to the East at 5 mph,

she must head towards the SouthWest to arrive on the South side of the river directly across from her starting point and we have

x^2 + 5^2 = 10^2 where x is her speed directly across the river

x = (75)^1/2 = 8.66 mph towards the South

sin theta = 5 / 10 = 1/2

She must angle the boat at 30 deg from straight South
