A hot–air balloon is moving at a speed of 10 meters/second in the +x–direction. The balloonist throws a brass ball in the +x–dir

ection at a velocity of +4 meters/second with respect to himself. If the ball lands after 30 seconds, about how far does it land horizontally from the point at which it was released?

The ball has an initial speed of 10m/s. This is because it is moving with the balloon. Now the balloonist throws the ball 4m/s with respect to himself, so it means that he gives the ball a extra push of 4m/s, so the total speed is 14m/s. Since it takes 30 seconds to reach the ground, the distance travelled is 14*30=420m.

The velocity of the transverse waves produced by an earthquake is 5.05 km/s, while that of the longitudinal waves is 8.585 km/s.
sattari [20]

Answer:

d=691.71km

Explanation:

The time lag between the arrival of transverse waves and the arrival of the longitudinal waves is defined as:

t=\frac{d}{v_t}-\frac{d}{v_l}

Here d is the distance at which the earthquake take place and v_t, v_l is the velocity of the transverse waves and longitudinal waves respectively. Solving for d:

t=d(\frac{1}{v_t}-\frac{1}{v_l})\\d=\frac{t}{\frac{1}{v_t}-\frac{1}{v_l}}\\d=\frac{56.4s}{\frac{1}{5.05\frac{km}{s}}-\frac{1}{8.585\frac{km}{s}}}\\d=691.71km

A 1569 kg car moves with a velocity of 15 m/s. What is its kinetic energy? Joules
Crank
Kinetic energy = 1/2 * mass * velocity^2

In this case,
KE = 1/2 * 1569 kg * (15 (m/s))^2 = 176,5 kN

A projectile is fired with an initial speed of 150 m/s and angle of elevation 60°. (Recall g ≈ 9.8 m/s2. Round your answers to t
natka813 [3]

Answer:

1988 m

Explanation:

Range of a projectile

R = U²sin2∅/g...................... Equation 1

Where R = Range, U = Initial velocity, g = acceleration due to gravity, ∅ = Angle of projection.

Given: U = 150 m/s, ∅ = 60°

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s².

Substitute these values into equation 1

R = 150²(sin60°)/9.8

R = 22500(0.866)/9.8

R = 1988 m

Hence the Range of the projectile is 1988 m

Water in a metal pot is heated over a campfire. Primarily, by wat means of energy transfer is thermal energy moved from the fire
Art [367]

when water in a metal pot is heated over a campfire. Primarily, by means of convection energy transfer is thermal energy moved from the fire to the bottom of the pot

<h3 /><h3>What is thermal energy?</h3>

It can be defined as the form of the energy in which heat is transferred from one body to another body due to their molecular movements, thermal energy is also known as heat energy.

Thermal energy can flow by different means such as conduction, convection, and radiation.

As given in the problem when water in a metal pot is heated over a campfire. The energy we receive around the campfire is mostly due to the effect of the radiation of the heat but the Primary means of energy transfer is thermal energy moved from the fire to the bottom of the pot because of the convection.

Thus, when water is heated in a metal pot over a campfire. Thermal energy is primarily transferred from the fire to the bottom of the pot through convection.
