A cannonball is fired horizontally from the top of a cliff. the cannon is at height h = 80.0 m above ground level, and the ball

is fired with initial horizontal speed v0. assume acceleration due to gravity to be g = 9.80 m/s2 .assume that the cannon is fired at time t=0 and that the cannonball hits the ground at time tg. what is the y position of the cannonball at the time tg/2?

Answer;

= 60 m

Explanation;

s = 80 m

= ½at² = ½ * 9.8m/s² * t² → t = 4.04 s  

At any time 0 ≤ t ≤ 4.04 s, height is  

y = Yo + ½at² = 80 m - 4.9m/s² * t²  

so at t = 4.04s/2 = 2.02 s,  

y = 80 m - 4.9m/s² * (2.02s)² = 60 m  

(so it drops 15 m during the first 2.02 s and 60 m during the second 2.02 s)

At what time of year is the intensity of solar radiation striking each of earth's hemispheres weakest?
bagirrra123 [75]
<span>During winter for a given hemisphere, solar radiation reaches the lowest period of its annual cycle due to the tilt of the earth on its axis. As the earth rotates around the sun, this tilt occludes a portion of the energy released by the sun as it diffuses in the atmosphere.</span>

The value of g is greater at the poles than at the equator why ​
babunello [35]

Answer:

because the gravitational pull is maximum at the poles and decreases as it comes down toward the equator.

Three observers watch a train pull away from a station toward the right of the platform. Observer A is in one of the train’s car
juin [17]

Observer A is moving inside the train

so here observer A will not be able to see the change in position of train as he is standing in the same reference frame

So here as per observer A the train will remain at rest and its not moving at all

Observer B is standing on the platform so here it is a stationary reference frame which is outside the moving body

So here observer B will see the actual motion of train which is moving in forward direction away from the platform

Observer C is inside other train which is moving in opposite direction on parallel track. So as per observer C the train is coming nearer to him at faster speed then the actual speed because they are moving in opposite direction

So the distance between them will decrease at faster rate

Now as per Newton's II law

F = ma

Now if train apply the brakes the net force on it will be opposite to its motion

So we can say

- F = ma

a = \frac{-F}{m}

so here acceleration negative will show that train will get slower and its distance with respect to us is now increasing with less rate

It is not affected by the gravity  because the gravity will cause the weight of train and this weight is always counterbalanced by normal force on the train

So there is no effect on train motion
