Answer:

Explanation:

The x component is the adjacent side making up the given angle (39.4)

The vector is the hypotenuse.

The definition of the cos (x) is adjacent / hypotenuse.

cos(39.4) = adjacent / 47.3 Multiply both sides by 47.3

47.3 * cos(39.4) = adjacent Cos(39.4) = 0.7727

adjacent = 36.55

a bal is launched upward with a velocity of v0 from the edge of a cliff of height D. it reaches a maximum height of H above its

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

D/H =15

Explanation:

We can find first the peak height H, taking into consideration, that at the maximum height, the ball will reach momentarily to a stop.
At this point, we can find the value of H, applying the following kinematic equation:

$v_{f} ^{2} -v_{0} ^{2} = 2* g* H (1)$

If vf=0, if we assume that the positive direction is upwards, we can find the value of H as follows:

$H = \frac{v_{0} ^{2} }{2*g} (2)$

We can use the same equation, to find the value of D, as follows:

$v_{f} ^{2} -v_{1} ^{2} = 2* g* D (3)$

In order to find v₁, we can use the same kinematic equation that we used to get H, but now, we know that v₀ = 0.
When we replace these values in (1), we find that v₁ = -v₀.
Replacing in (3), we have:

$(4*v_{0})^{2} - (-v_{0}) ^{2} = 2* g* D\\ \\ 15*v_{0}^{2} = 2*g*D$

Solving for D:

$D = \frac{15*v_{0} ^{2} }{2*g}$

From (2) we know that H can be expressed as follows:

$H = \frac{v_{0} ^{2} }{2*g}$

⇒ D = 15 * H

$\frac{D}{H} = 15$

Write a balanced equation for the decomposition of ammonium nitrate to form molecular nitrogen, molecular oxygen, and water. Exp

VARVARA [1.3K]

The unbalanced reaction is

a NH₄NO₃ ⇒ b N₂ + c O₂ + d H₂O

where a, b, c, and d are unknown constants.

Count how many times each element appears on either side of the reaction.

• reactants:

N = 2a, H = 4a, O = 3a

• products

N = 2b, O = 2c + d, H = 2d

Now we solve the system of equations,

2a = 2b … … … [1]

4a = 2d … … … [2]

3a = 2c + d … … … [3]

From [1] we immediately have

a = b

In [2], we get

2a = d

and substituting for d in [3] gives

3a = 2c + 2a

a = 2c

Let c = 1; then

• a = 2×1 = 2

• b = 2

• d = 2×2 = 4

So, the balanced reaction is

2 NH₄NO₃ ⇒ 2 N₂ + O₂ + 4 H₂O

Which statement about the total velocity of a projectile launched at an angle less than 90° above a flat surface is true?

marissa [1.9K]

The correct answer is B the total velocity is equal at both landing and launch because before your about launch you have 0 velocity then when you have landed you also have 0 velocity. Hope This Helps

There are many theories as to why ice ages occur. The currently accepted theory is that ice ages are caused by _____.

Harman [31]

Earlier in the text this question is provided for, you should be able to find the passage, "The currently accepted theory attributes ice ages to small changes in Earth's orbit, known as Milankovitch cycles. These cycles describe how Earth's orbit gradually changes shape from more circular to more elliptical and back again. This happens roughly every 100,000 years. The orbital changes take Earth nearer and further from the Sun, which would affect the amount of energy reaching Earth."

Answer: Small changes in Earth's orbit
