The horizontal component of speed remains constant at 10 m/s.
After 1 s, a vertical component of speed = gt = 9.8(1) = 9.8 m/s is added to the horizontal speed.
The size of the total speed of the ball after 1 s = √(10²+9.8²) = √196.04 ≈ 14.0 m/s <=
You are correct.

Answer:

Speed is slightly greater than 14 m/s.          

Explanation:

The ball will under go projectile motion. The horizontal velocity remains constant while there would be increase in vertical velocity due to acceleration due to gravity in downward direction.

Using first equation of motion, after 1 s, vertical velocity will be:

v = u +at

v=0+(9.8 m/s²)(1 s) = 9.8 m/s

Horizontal velocity = 10 m/s

Net velocity:

V= \sqrt{(9.8)^2+(10)^2}=\sqrt{196.04}=14.001 m/s

Speed is slightly greater than 14 m/s.

A flat surface is in a uniform magnetic field. Given only the area of the surface and the magnetic flux through the surface, it
Tasya [4]

Answer:

Given the area A of a flat surface and the magnetic flux through the surface \Phi it is possible to calculate the magnitude \frac{\Phi}{A}=B\ cos \theta.

Explanation:

The magnetic flux gives an idea of how many magnetic field lines are passing through a surface. The SI unit of the magnetic flux \Phi is the weber (Wb), of the magnetic field B is the tesla (T) and of the area A is (m^{2}). So 1 Wb=1 T.m².

For a flat surface S of area A in a uniform magnetic field B, with \theta being the angle between the vector normal to the surface S and the direction of the magnetic field B, we define the magnetic flux through the surface as:

                                                     \Phi=B\ A\ cos\theta

We are told the values of \Phi and B, then we can calculate the magnitude

                                                      \frac{\Phi}{A}=B\ cos\theta

Nuclear chain reactions within power plants do NOT produce bomb-like explosions primarily because the ________.
Gelneren [198K]

Answer: D. Density of uranium within nuclear fuel rods is insufficient to become explosive

Explanation: Nuclear power plants use the same fuel as nuclear bombs, i.e. radioactive Uranium-235 isotope. However, in a nuclear power plant, the energy is released more slowly unlike in a nuclear bomb. <em>The energy released is through nuclear fission, and radioactive decay occurs at the same rate as in nuclear bombs. therefore, option A, B</em><em> </em><em>and C are incorrect.</em>

The primary reason why nuclear chain reactions within power plants do NOT produce bomb-like explosions is because the uranium fuel rods used in electricity generation is not sufficiently enriched in Uranium-235 to produce a nuclear detonation. This is the same idea in option D which is the correct option.

) is it possible for one component of a vector to be zero, while the vector itself is not zero?
Natalka [10]
The least number of component of a vector quantity is two. These are the x-component and the y-component. 

The resultant vector, or vector as we refer to it in this item, can be calculated through the equation,
              RV = sqrt ((Vx)² + (Vy)²)

From the equation, it can be noted that if we let Vx equal to zero,
              RV = Vy

Similarly, if we let Vy be equal to zero then,
             RV = Vx

Thus, it is still possible for the vector to become nonzero even if one of its components is zero.
