I'm not sure what "60 degree horizontal" means.

I'm going to assume that it means a direction aimed 60 degrees
above the horizon and 30 degrees below the zenith. 

Now, I'll answer the question that I have invented.

When the shot is fired with speed of 'S' in that direction,
the horizontal component of its velocity is    S cos(60)  =  0.5 S ,
and the vertical component is   S sin(60) = S√3/2  =  0.866 S .  (rounded)

-- 0.75 of its kinetic energy is due to its vertical velocity.
That much of its KE gets used up by climbing against gravity.

-- 0.25 of its kinetic energy is due to its horizontal velocity.
That doesn't change. 

-- So at the top of its trajectory, its KE is 0.25 of what it had originally. 

That's  E/4 .

A force of 30n is applied to a screwdriver to pry the lid off of a can of paint. The screwdriver applies 75n of force to the lid
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
The mechanical advantage of the screwdriver that is being described above is equal to 75N. This means that for every 30N that is applied on the screwdriver, this simple machine would in turn apply 75N of force to the lid of the can.

What will be the change in velocity of a 850kg car if a force of 50,000 N
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

29.412m/s

Explanation:

F=ma where F= force, m= mass, and a=acceleration

we also know that,

a = Δv / t where Δv = change in velocity and t = time

thus F = m ( Δv / t)

50000=850(\frac{v}{0.5})

\frac{50000}{1700}= Δv

29.412m/s=Δv

A horse travels 80 meters south in 20 seconds. What is its average velocity?
AURORKA [14]

Average velocity is a vector unit (i.e. includes magnitude <em>and </em>direction) calculated by working out distance ÷ time:

80 metres ÷ 20 seconds = 4 metres/seconds (m/s)

Therefore, your final answer is C. 4 m/s south.
