Answer:

9.6 m/s

Explanation:

Angle of projection, θ = 28°

Horizontal distance, R = 7.8 m

Let the velocity of projection is given by u.

The formula used to find the velocity of projection is given by

R=\frac{u^{2}Sin2\theta }{g}

7.8=\frac{u^{2}Sin\left (2\times 28  \right ) }{9.8}

7.8=\frac{u^{2}\times 0.829}{9.8}

u = 9.6 m/s

Thus, the velocity of projection is 9.6 m/s.

A man in a lift is moving upwards in a constant speed.the weight of the man is W.Acc
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Normal force=mg

Explanation:

The reaction force of weight is the normal force.

in order to find the normal for we need to write all the forces and set it equal to the net force:

N-mg=ma (since it is a constant speed the a=0)

N=mg

A billiard ball is moving in the x-direction at 30.0 cm/s and strikes another billiard ball moving in the y-direction at 40.0 cm
ipn [44]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the trigonometric ratios of the given velocity components.

If we make a graph of the velocity vectors in their respective velocities according to the given description we will have something similar to the attached graph.

The angle could be obtained from the components of the opposite leg and the adjacent leg so that

tan\theta = \frac{x}{y}

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{x}{y})

The opposite leg value (y) is 40cm / s and the adjacent leg (x) is 30cm / s

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{30}{40})

\theta = 36.87\°

Therefore the final direction that does the first ball is 36.87°

Which of the following is a consequence of the special theory of relativity?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

Specifically, Special Relativity showed us that space and time are not independent of one another but can be mixed into each other and therefore must be considered as the same object, which we shall denote as space-time. The consequences of space/time mixing are: time dilation. and length contraction.

Is there a pattern to the volcano distribution around the plant?
alexira [117]
Hi there!

Typically volcanoes are found alongside tectonic plate boundaries and in that sense could be considered a pattern. One of the most famous is 'The Ring of Fire' which is a ring of volcanoes in the pacific ocean along the pacific plate boundary.

In terms of positive and negative charges what causes lightning?
erik [133]

Answer:

Electrostatic Discharge during the equalization of the separated positively and negatively charged electrostatic charges in the storm clouds.

Explanation:

In nature, lightning occurs during the discharge of the large charges contained in the separated positively and negatively particles in the atmosphere in the process equalizing (neutralizing) of the charges, leading to the release of instantaneous energy in the form of heat, light and sound

During a storm, as the clouds mixes by the wind with different densities, they rub each other forming electrostatic charges. The lighter positively charged particles rise to the top clouds while the heavier negatively charged particles move to the bottom. The charges continue to add up to a point where their magnitudes is large enough such that a big spark or lightening occurs between the positive and negative charges during the process of re-equalization of the charges to revert to neutrality.
