Find the range of a projectile launched at an angle of 30° with an initial velocity of 20m/s.​
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

<em>The range is 35.35 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Projectile Motion</u>

It's the type of motion that experiences an object projected near the Earth's surface and moves along a curved path exclusively under the action of gravity.

Being vo the initial speed of the object, θ the initial launch angle, and g=9.8m/s^2 the acceleration of gravity, then the maximum horizontal distance traveled by the object (also called Range) is:

\displaystyle d={\frac  {v_o^{2}\sin(2\theta )}{g}}

The projectile was launched at an angle of θ=30° with an initial speed vo=20 m/s. Calculating the range:

\displaystyle d={\frac  {20^{2}\sin(2\cdot 30^\circ )}{9.8}}

\displaystyle d={\frac  {400\sin(60^\circ )}{9.8}}

d=35.35\ m

The range is 35.35 m

A baseball is thrown straight up from a building that is 25 meters tall with an initial velocity v = 10 m/s. How fast is it goin
Yanka [14]

Answer:-24,5m/s

Explanation: what we have here is a UALM with these gravity as acceleration (-9.8 m/s^2). The initial position is 25 m and initial speed is 10m/s.

Speed and gravity are increasing in the opposite direction, speed upwards and gravity downwards, while the position is also upwards, depending on your reference system.

The first thing I need to know is the maximum high it will reach.

Hmax=- S(0)^2/2g=

S= speed.

0= initial

G= gravity

Hm= 100/19,6= 5.1 m

So, the ball will go 5,1 m higher than the initial position, and from there it will fall free.

Then, I need to know how long it takes to fall. For that we use UALM equation:

X(t)= X(0) + S(0)*t + (A*t^2)/2.

X: position

S: speed

A: acceleration

T:time

0: initial

0 = 25m +10*t -(9.8 * t^2)/2

Solving the quadratic equation we get

T= 3,5 sec. ( Negative value for time is impossible)

So now we know that the ball to go up and then fall needs 3,5 sec.

Let's see how long it takes to go up:

30,1=25+10*t-4,9*t^2

0=-5,1+10*t-4,9*t^2

T= 1 sec. So it will take 1 sec to the ball to reach the maximum high and 0=speed and then it'll fall during the resting 2,5 sec

Finally, to know the speed just before it touches the ground, we use the following formula:

A= (St-S0)/t

-9.8m/s^2 = (St- 0m/s)/ 2,5s

-24,5 m/s= St

-24,5 m/s is the speed at 3,5 sec, which is the time just before falling

Letter C on the map labels which feature of the Middle East?
likoan [24]

Honest, the map is so tiny, and so fuzzy when I blow it up, I really can't see anything on it clearly.  But I think maybe I do see a letter ' C ' in the eastern Mediterranean, with a curved line over to the southern Gaza strip, where it meets Sinai.  So I'll say it's the Gaza Strip.

Trava [24]

Answer:

rotates faster

Explanation:

A huge rotating cloud of particles in space gravitate together to form an increasingly dense ball As it shrinks in size, the cloud rotates faster. Because Angular momentum is conserved, so when it shrinks the moment of inertia decreases, then angular speed must increase. So it rotates fast.
