Answer:

a) V = 465.9 m/s

b) θ = 70.529°

Explanation:

Let's first calculate angular velocity of earth:

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{23.9h}*1h/3600s

Velocity of a person on Ecuador will be:

V_E = \omega*R

V_E = 465.9 m/s

For part b, since angular velocity is the same:

\frac{\omega*R}{3}=\omega*(R*cos\theta )

Solving for θ:

\theta=acos(1/3)

\theta=70.529\°

A volleyball player bumps a ball across a net with the velocity and angle shown below. What is the maximum height of the ball?
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

D. 12.4 m

Explanation:

Given that,

The initial velocity of the ball, u = 18 m/s

The angle at which the ball is projected, θ = 60°

The maximum height of the ball is given by the formula

                             h = u² sin²θ/2g  m

Where,

                           g - acceleration due to gravity. (9.8 m/s)

Substituting the values in the above equation

                            h = 18² · sin²60 / 2 x 9.8

                               = 18² x 0.75 / 2 x 9.8

                               = 12.4 m

Hence, the maximum height of the ball attained, h = 12.4 m

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
faust18 [17]

Answer:

9)a

10) I think true

11)b

Explanation:

9)a. because it's told that the car is slowing down, the sum of the forces that are towards left, should be more than the ones that are towards right. if the car was gaining speed, "b" would have been correct. and if it was told that the car is moving without a change in the speed, "c" would have been correct.

10) if a moving object has a change of speed or direction, it would have an acceleration. now if a moving object experiences an unbalanced force, it'd either slow down, gain speed or change direction, and in all of the three possibilities it'd have an acceleration.

11) upward and downward forces are equal, and the sum of them would be 0N(because they have opposite directions). so they negate each other.

and the rightward force is 5N more than the leftward force. so the Net Force would be 5N.

-30+30-10+15=5N

if it is unclear or you need more explanation, ask freely.

Describe the energy change in the particles of a substance during melting. A) The kinetic energy of the particles remains unchan
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

As ice melts into water, kinetic energy is being added to the particles. This causes them to be 'excited' and they break the bonds that hold them together as a solid, resulting in a change of state: solid -> liquid.

Explanation:

As we may know, the change in state of an object is due to the change in the average kinetic energy of the particles.

This average kinetic energy is proportional to the temperature of the particles.

This is because heat is a form of energy; by adding energy to ice - heat, you "excite" the water molecules, breaking the interactions in the lattice structure and forming weaker, looser hydrogen-bonding interactions.

This causes the ice to melt. This is demonstrated in the image below.

More generally, when you remove energy - the object cools down, the particles move a lot slower. So slow, that they individually attract other molecules more than before, and this results in a physical change that also changes the state.

Increasing which two things would increase gravitational potential energy?
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

Mass and height

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is energy an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field. The most common use of gravitational potential energy is for an object near the surface of the Earth where the gravitational acceleration can be assumed to be constant at about 9.8 m/s2.

Which is represented as;

PE_g=mgh

PE_g stands for gravitational potantial energy,

m stands for mass of object,

g is the gravitational constant and

h is the height.

Here we see that mass of object and height is directly proportional to the gravitational potential energy.

That means increasing in mass and height will result in increasing gravitational potential energy.
