Answer:

Water particles move up and down while the waves passes.

The wave carries the energy forward. The medium particles (here, water particles) do not move along with the wave they oscillate about a fixed position.

As the boat at rest moves up and down, it means the water particles are oscillating vertically up and down while the wave is carrying the energy forward.

A projectile is fired with an initial velocity of 120.0 meters per second at an angle, θ above the horizontal. If the projectile
k0ka [10]

Answer:

θ = 62.72°

Explanation:

The projectile describes a parabolic path:

The parabolic movement results from the composition of a uniform rectilinear motion (horizontal ) and a uniformly accelerated rectilinear motion of upward or downward motion (vertical ).

The equation of uniform rectilinear motion (horizontal ) for the x axis is :

x = x₀+ vx*t   Formula (1)

vx = v₀x

Where:  

x: horizontal position in meters (m)

x₀: initial horizontal position in meters (m)

t : time (s)

vx: horizontal velocity  in m/s

v₀x: Initial speed in x  in m/s

The equations of uniformly accelerated rectilinear motion of upward (vertical ) for the y axis  are:

y= y₀+(v₀y)*t - (1/2)*g*t² Formula (2)

vfy= v₀y -gt Formula (3)

Where:  

y: vertical position in meters (m)  

y₀ : initial vertical position in meters (m)  

t : time in seconds (s)

v₀y: initial  vertical velocity  in m/s  

vfy: final  vertical velocity  in m/s  

g: acceleration due to gravity in m/s²

Data

v₀ = 120 m/s  , at an angle  θ above the horizontal

v₀x= 55 m/s

x-y components of the initial  velocity ( v₀)

v₀x = v₀*cosθ Equation (1)

v₀y = v₀*sinθ   Equation (2)

Calculating of the angle θ

We replace data in the  Equation (1)

55 =  120*cosθ

cosθ = 55 / 120

\theta = cos^{-1}(  \frac{55}{120} )

θ = 62.72°

Imagine that you have a 6.50 l gas tank and a 4.50 l gas tank. you need to fill one tank with oxygen and the other with acetylen
Margarita [4]
V₁(O2) = 6.50<span>  L                
</span>p₁(O2) = 155 atm          
V₂(acetylene) = <span>4.50 L                   
</span>p₂(acetylene) =?                             

According to Boyle–Mariotte law (At constant temperature and unchanged amount of gas, the product of pressure and volume is constant) we can compare two gases that have ideal behavior and the law can be usefully expressed as:

V₁/p₁ = V₂/p₂

6.5/155 = 4.5/p₂

0.042 x p₂ = 4.5

p₂ = 107.3 atm

a 0.15 kg baseball has a momentum of 0.78 kg*m/s just before it lands on the ground. What was the ball's speed just before landi
vovangra [49]

5.2m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of baseball = 0.15kg

Momentum of baseball = 0.78kgm/s

Unknown:

Speed of baseball = ?

Solution:

The momentum of the baseball is a function of the product of the mass and velocity. It is a vector quantity:

        Momentum = mass x velocity

 Since the speed of the ball is unknown:

           Velocity  =  \frac{momentum }{mass}

                           = \frac{0.78}{0.15}

                           = 5.2m/s

The speed of the baseball before it lands is 5.2m/s
