Vx=cos60(4)
x-component of velocity
If you think about it, it makes a right triangle when you combine all the different types of forces together such as v, vx and vy. Then, you can use trigonometry and soh cah toa in order to figure out vx.

On Friday, September 28, 2018, Palu, Indonesia, on the island of Sulawesi, experienced an earthquake that generated a tsunami. F
Naily [24]

Answer: Proximity to active volcanoes

Explanation:

When volcanoes erupt, they can generate tsunamis in the following ways:

-Parts of the volcano (some of them may be underwater) could collapse, generating a big displacement of water and resulting in a tsunami.

-The magma chamber could also collapse as it empties, also generating water displacement.

-If the volcanoes are near to the shore, debris resulting from the eruption could hit the water at fast speeds, producing big waves and eventually a tsunami.

In this case, the proximity of Palu city to active volcanoes, especially ones that are so close to the shore, increases the risk of a tsunami.

Describe J.J Thomson's plum pudding model,and explain how it compares to the modern day atomic theory.​
juin [17]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The J.J Thomson's plum pudding model establishes that when he researched the atom, he found that electrons are positively charged. Because he observed that electrons were embedded like plums. Electrons are negative. However, compared to the modern-day atomic theory, scientist Ernest Rutherford established that the space between an atom is empty, the nucleus of the atom is positive, and negative electrons have fixed motion paths.

Which of the following is an example of kinetic mechanical energy?
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Kinetic energy must be moving. Potential energy has the ability to move but is not doing so at the moment.

A is likely the answer. But there's lots involved in that kind of motion.

B If the ball is elevated, it implies it is not moving yet. It has potential energy.

C Again, the spring is compressed. It will push something when it moves, but it is not moving yet.

D The load gun's bullet is not moving. It's still potential energy.

E. The mouse trap is set, but it is not moving. When the mouse eats the bait then it's potential energy will transform into kinetic energy.

You apply a horizontal force of 25N to push a shopping cart across the parking lot at a constant velocity. a) what is the net fo
AlekseyPX

(a) The net force on the shopping cart is zero.

(b) The the force of friction on the shopping cart is 25 N.

(c) When same force is applied to the shopping cart on a wet surface, it will move faster.

<h3>Net force on the shopping cart</h3>

The net force on the shopping cart is calculated as follows;

F(net) = F - Ff

where;

  • F is the applied force
  • Ff is the frictional force

ma = F - Ff

where;

  • a is acceleration of the cart
  • m is mass of the cart

at a constant velocity, a = 0

0 = F - Ff

F(net)  = 0

F = Ff = 25 N

Net force is zero, and frictional force is equal to applied force.

<h3>On wet surface</h3>

Coefficient of kinetic friction of solid surface is greater than that of wet surface.

Since frictional force limit motion, when the frictional force is smaller, the object tends to move faster.

Thus, the cart will move faster on a wet surface due to decrease in friction.
