The horizontal and vertical components of a projectile's velocity are independent of each other.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

The path of a projectile is determined by two components of motion. They are termed as horizontal and the vertical components. Since both components velocity are perpendicular to each other, so it can stated that they are independent of each other.

Even it can seen that when the horizontal components of velocity is constant, then there will be change in the vertical components of velocity leading to free fall projectile path.

And in the absence of gravity, there will be change in the horizontal components of velocity with zero vertical component of velocity. Thus, the horizontal and the vertical components of a projectile’s velocity are seemed to be independent of each other.

In tae-kwon-do, a hand is slammed down onto a target at a speed of 14 m/s and comes to a stop during the 3.0 ms collision. Assum

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

A) The impulse is 11,7 kg.m/s . B) The average force on the hand is 3900N

Explanation:

Givens:

Hand's mass (m)= 0,90kg

Hand's initial velocity (vi)= 14m/s

Time of collision (t)= 3ms

A) Impulse is the change of momentum of an object when the object is acted upon by a force for an interval of time. We use the formula:

/F/ = m. /Δv/

Where:

F= Force of Impulse

m= Mass

Δv= change in speed ( vf-vi)

Using that formula we get:

/F/= 0,90kg . / (0m/s-14m/s) /

/F/=0,90kg . 14m/s

/F/ = 11,7 kg. m/s

*note that (vf) is 0 because the hand stops in the action, so it's final

velocity = 0

B)The average force is equal to the change in the momentum over the change in time. We use the formula:

/F/= m. (Δv) : Δt

Where:

F= the average force from the target

m= the mass of the hand

Δv= hange in speed (vf/vi)

Δt= change in time

*if we look closely, we find the we alredy have half of the equation because we have alredy calculated m.(Δv) in point A.

We boil the equation down to:

/F/= Impulse : Δt

/F/= 11,7kg.m/s : 0,003s

/F/= 3900N

*we use 0,003s as our time because the given time was 3ms.

*the final result is expressed in Newtons because our final result ends up beeing kg.m/s² = N

The householder installs cavity wall insulation. What would happen to the time taken for the temperature to fall between points

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

the answers the correct one is: the time increases

Explanation:

When an insulating material is placed in the cavity of a wall the thermal conductivity of the system increases, therefore the temperature changes take longer.

P= dQ / dt = K A dT / dx

when placing insulation the value of k is less

When reviewing the answers the correct one is: the time increases

The mohorovicic discontinuity marks the change in rock density between the core and the mantle. mantle and crust. asthenosphere

lions [1.4K]

The transition zone between the crust and mantle is called as mohorovicic discontinuity.

The mohorovicic discontinuity was discovered by Andrija Mohorovicic in the year of 1909. The Moho lies at the depth of 35km beneath the continents and 8km beneath the oceanic crust. The Moho separates both the continental crust and the oceanic crust from underlying mantle. The Moho lies almost entirely within the lithosphere, only beneath the Mid Oceanic Ridge does it define lithosphere and asthenosphere boundary. Immediate above the Moho velocity of the P wave is 6km/sec and just below the Moho it becomes 8km/sec. Moho is characterised by up to 500km thick.

The Mohorovicic Discontinuity marks the lower limit of Earth's crust. It occurs at an average depth of about 8 kilometers beneath the ocean basins and 32 kilometers beneath continental surfaces. Mohorovicic was able to use his discovery to study thickness variations of the crust.

Mohorovicic discontinuity is the layer which is between the earth's crust and mantle. It's density ranges from 3.3 to 3.7.

If a 2 kg object is falling at 3 m/s at what rate is gravity working on the object

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

+9.8m/s^2

Explanation:

The rate of gravity of the object is constant thriughout the surface of the earth.

For falling object, the rate of gravity is positive since the body is coming down (falling)

The rate of gravity is negative if the body is going up

The constant value for acceleration due to gravity is 9.8m.s^2

Since the object is falling, hence the acceleration due to gravity is positive.

Rate of gravity working on the object will be +9.8m/s^2
