Answer:

It will take 40 sec

Explanation:

We have given that auto is starting from rest so initial velocity u = 0 m/sec

And final velocity is given as v = 60 m/sec

Distance traveled by car s = 1200 m

According third equation of motion we know that $v^2=u^2+2as$

So $60^2=0^2+2\times a\times 1200$

$a=1.5m/sec^2$

Now according to first equation of motion v = u+at

So $60=0+1.5\times t$

t = 40 sec

20.0 -kg cannonball is fired from a cannon with muzzle speed of 1000m/s at an angle of 37.0° with the horizontal. A second ball

Dovator [93]

The mechanical energy for the first and the second ball is

$10 ^{7} \: joules.$

Mass of the first ball = 20 kg

The initial speed at which a cannonball is fired from a cannon =1000 m/s

The angle made by the cannonball while being fired from the cannon = 37°

The maximum height reached by the first ball is,

$= \frac{ u {}^{2} _{1}sin {}^{2} θ}{2g}$

$= \frac{ {1000}^{2} sin {}^{2}37°}{2 \times 9.8}$

$= 18478.69 \: m$

The maximum height of the first cannonball is 17478.69 m.

The initial speed at which a cannonball is fired from a cannon =1000 m/s

The angle made by the cannonball while being fired from the cannon = 90 °

$= \frac{ u {}^{2} _{2}sin {}^{2} θ}{2g}$

$= \frac{ 1000{}^{2}sin^{2} 90°}{2 \times 9.8}[tex] = 51020.41 \: m$

For the first ball, total mechanical energy= Potential energy at maximum height + kinetic energy at the maximum height

So, the total mechanical energy is,

= mgh \: + \frac{1}{2}mv {}^{2} _{x}[/tex]

$= 20 \times 9.8 \times 18478.64 \times \frac{20}{2} (1000 \: cos37 °)$

$= 10 ^{7} The potential energy at the maximum height, = m _{2}gh$

$= 20 \times 9.8 \times 51020.41$

$= 10 ^{7} \:J$

Therefore, the total mechanical energy for the first and the

$\:second \: cannonball \: is \: 10 ^{7} \:joules.$

Even though you are getting closer to the sun as you ascend into the toposphere, why does the temperature drop?

pishuonlain [190]

Answer: The lower areas of the Atmosphere have a high temperature through the heats from the ground.

Explanation: High temperature experienced on the Earth surface is majorly caused by heats from the ground ( Earth crust).As a person ascend up to the Toposphere the temperature continues to reduce because because the heat from the ground is reduced as the heights increased.

It has been proven that as a person ascends into the Toposphere the amount of air and pressure reduces this will eventually lead to expansion of the gas particles which will then reduce the temperature.

Red laser light from a He-Ne laser (λ = 632.8 nm) creates a second-order fringe at 53.2° after passing through the grating. What

Svetlanka [38]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Wavelength of red laser light, $\lambda=632.8\ nm=632.8\times 10^{-9}\ m$

The second order fringe is formed at an angle of, $\theta=53.2^{\circ}$

For diffraction grating,

$d\ sin\theta=n\lambda$

$d=\dfrac{n\lambda}{sin\theta}$ , n = 2

$d=\dfrac{2\times 632.8\times 10^{-9}}{sin(53.2)}$

$d=1.58\times 10^{-6}\ m$

The wavelength λ of light that creates a first-order fringe at 22 is given by :

$\lambda=d\ sin\theta$

$\lambda=1.58\times 10^{-6}\ sin(22)$

$\lambda=5.91\times 10^{-7}\ m$

$\lambda=591\ nm$

Hence, this is the required solution.

An Olympic swimmer swims 50.0 meters in 23.1 seconds . What is his average speed

Aneli [31]

If you take 50 meters and divide by 23.1 seconds, you will get 2.16 meters per second.

So his average speed is 2.16 m/s.
