A cannonball is tired with an initial speed of 40m/s and a launch angle of 30degrees from a cliff that is 25m tall. a. What is t

he flight time of the cannonball b. How far away does the cannonball land c. Using two graphs, plot the horizontal speed of the projectile versus time and the vertical speed of the projectile versus time (from the initial launch of the projectile to the instant i strikes the ground).

Answer:

Part a)

t = 5.1 s

Part b)

x = 176.7 m

Explanation:

Initial speed of the launch is given as

v_i = 40 m/s

angle = 30 degree

Now the two components of the velocity

v_x = v_i cos30

v_x = 34.6 m/s

similarly we have

v_y = v_i sin30

v_y = 20 m/s

Part a)

Now to find the time of flight we will have

\Delta y = v_y t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

-25 = 20 t -\frac{1}{2}(9.81)t^2

t = 5.1 s

Part b)

Distance at which the ball will land is given as

x = v_x t

x = 34.6 (5.1)

x = 176.7 m

Part c)

Since x direction there is no acceleration so it will move with uniform speed while in y direction it will accelerate due to gravity

The wing of an airplane experiences the forces as depicted in the vector diagram to the right. Using both one and two dimensiona
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

A.) 3605.6 N

B.) 33.7 degree

Explanation:

To find the result force acting on the wing of the airplane, we need to resolve the forces into x and y components

Resolving into x component :

Sum of forces = 3500 - 500 = 3000N

Resolving into y component:

Sum of forces = 2000N

Resultant force Fr = sqrt ( Fx^2 + Fy^2)

Fr = sqrt ( 3000^2 + 2000^2 )

Fr = sqrt ( 9000000 + 4000000 )

Fr = sqrt ( 13000000)

Fr = 3605.6 N

Therefore, resultant force acting on the wing is 3605.6 N

The direction of the vector will be:

Tan Ø = Fy / Fx

Substitute Fx and Fy into the formula

Tan Ø = 2000 / 3000

Tan Ø = 0.66666

Ø = tan^-1(0. 66666)

Ø = 33.7 degree.

Earth's gravitational field is strongest at _______.
Serga [27]
Earth's gravity is stronger at the poles than the equator for two reasons: The centrifugal "force" cancels out the gravity minimally, more so at the equator than at the poles.

What was Galileo’s contribution to the study of motion?
babunello [35]

Before giving you the answer straight away, I’d like to make sure you understand each option.


FIRST OPTION


“He developed the three laws of motion."


This option is not only the incorrect answer, but it is an incorrect statement. Galileo did not develop the three laws of motion. Isaac Newton was the one to compiled the three laws of motion.


SECOND OPTION


“He was the first to systematically study force and motion."


This option is a statement is true, and it could also be the correct answer. Galileo Galilei used experiments to search for the cause of motion.


THIRD OPTION


“He was the first to discover gravity."


This option is not only the incorrect answer, but it is an incorrect statement. Galileo was not the person to discover gravity. Sir Isaac Newton was the first to discover gravity.


FINAL OPTION


“He improved on Newton's laws."


This option is not only the incorrect answer, but it is an incorrect statement. Galilei did not improve Sir Isaac Newton’s laws.


Now that we’ve gone through each of the options individually, we can go ahead and determine the correct answer to the question, which is...


B ) He was the first to systematically study force and motion.
