Answer:

Answer B is the correct answer: "<em>Motion of one projectile as seen from the other is a straight line.</em>"

Explanation:

Let's write the equations of motion for each projectile, using that projectile a is launched with velocity a which has components associated with the angle of launching, given in x and y coordinates as: a_x\,\,and\,\,a_y.

Similarly, assume that projectile b is launched with velocity b with components due to the launching angle = b_x\,\,and \,\,b_y

then the equations of motion for the two projectiles launched at the same time (t) from the same spot (position that we assume to be at the origin of coordinates to simplify formulas) are:

x_a=a_x\,t\\y_a= a_y\,t-\frac{1}{2} g\,t^2\\and\\x_b=b_x\,t\\y_b= b_y\,t-\frac{1}{2} g\,t^2

therefore, from the frame of reference of projectile "b", the x and y position of projectile "a" would be:

x_{a\,b}= x_a-x_b= a_x\,t-b_x\,t=(a_x-b_x)\,t  which is linear in "t"

y_{a\,\,b}=y_a-y_b= a_y\,t-\frac{1}{2} g\,t^2-\left[ b_y\,t-\frac{1}{2} g\,t^2\right]=(a_y-b_y)\,t which is also linear in t.

Therefore the motion of one projectile with reference to the other is a straight line (answer B)

Notice as well that this two projectiles cannot collide because they have been launched together, and supposedly at different speeds and angles. The only way that they can share the same x-coordinate and the same y-coordinate at the same time "t" is if their velocity components are equal, which is not what we are told.

x_a=x_b\\a_x\,t= b_x\,t\\and\\y_a= y_b\\a_y\,t-\frac{1}{2} g\,t^2= b_y\,t-\frac{1}{2} g\,t^2\\a_y\,t=b_y\,t\\a_y=b_y

Explanation:

When you run, your body has a kinetic energy  and when you fall while running, the friction between the carpet and your foot, transforms the kinetic energy into thermal energy or heat energy. This can even cause, real burn if the skin were too hot.

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

1992 (Early 1990s)

Explanation:

First of all, i would like to define an extrasolar planet as a planet that orbits a start that is not our own.

The first confirmed detections of extrasolar planets occured in the early 1990s (specifically 1992, some say 1995). The name of the first extrasolar planet is widely believed to be called Dimidium or 51 Pegasi b.  

Extrasolar were searched by monitoring stars for slight dimming that might occur as unseen planets pass in front of them.

A pendulum has 484 J of potential energy at the highest point of its swing. How much kinetic energy will it have at the bottom o
mihalych1998 [28]
-- Energy is never created or destroyed.

-- No energy is added to the pendulum during its swing.

-- If we ignore air resistance and friction, then no energy is lost
from the pendulum during its swing.

-- Therefore the total energy of the pendulum must be constant.

-- Any potential energy lost at any point in the swing
must show up as kinetic energy.  If it had 484J at the top,
then it'll have 484J at the bottom.

What is the value of work done on an object when a 50–newton force moves it 15 meters in the same direction as the force?
laila [671]

Answer:

Work done, W = 750 joules

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force acting on the object, F = 50 N

It moves to a distance of, d = 15 meters

We need to find the work done on an object. We know that the product of force and distance covered is called the work done. As the force and the displacement are in same direction. So,

W=F\times d

W=50\ N\times 15\ m

W = 750 joules

So, the work done on an object is 750 joules. Hence, this is the required solution.
