Answer:

k = 200 N/m

Explanation:

given,

mass of the object  = 251 g

                                = 251 x 10⁻³ Kg = 0.251 Kg

distance of tendon stretch = x = 1.23 cm

                                            = 1.23 x 10⁻² = 0.0123 m

using the formula

F = k  x

where

k is the force constant of the tendon

F = m g

F = 0.251 x 9.8 = 2.4598 N

2.4598 = k x 0.0123

k = 199.98 N/m

k = 200 N/m

hence, force constant of the tendon is approximately equal to 200 N/m

If you're driving towards the sun late in the afternoon, you can reduce the glare from the road by wearing sunglasses that permi
AveGali [126]

Correct answer choice is:

C. Polarized in a vertical plane.

Explanation:

Polarized sunglasses give excellent glare shield, particularly on the water. Polarized lenses include a specific filter that prevents this type of strong reflected light, diminishing glare.

This is because when you angle one polarized lens to different perpendicularly, they prevent glare both horizontally and vertically. The polarized lenses are enduringly tinted sunglasses that exceedingly decrease glare.

A cannon with a muzzle speed of 1 000 m/s is used to start an avalanche on a mountain slope. The target is 2 000 m from the cann
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

∅ = 89.44°

Explanation:

In situations like this air resistance are usually been neglected thereby making g= 9.81 m/s^{2}

Bring out the given parameters from the question:

Initial Velocity (V_{1}) = 1000 m/s

Target distance (d) = 2000 m

Target height (h) =  800 m

Projection angle ∅ = ?

Horizontal distance = V_{1x}tcos ∅     .......................... Equation 1

where V_{1x} = velocity in the X - direction

           t = Time taken

Vertical Distance = y = V_{1y} t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}        ................... Equation 2

Where   V_{1y} = Velocity in the Y- direction

              t  = Time taken

V_{1y} = V_{1}sin∅

Making time (t) subject of the formula in Equation 1

                    t = d/(V_{1x}cos ∅)

                      t = \frac{2000}{1000coso} = \frac{2}{cos0}  =    \frac{d}{cos o}             ...................Equation 3

substituting equation 3 into equation 2

Vertical Distance = d = V_{1y} \frac{d}{cos o} - \frac{1}{2}g\frac{2}{cos0}   ^{2}

                                  Vertical Distance = h = sin∅ \frac{d}{cos o} - \frac{1}{2}g\frac{2}{cos0}   ^{2}

  Vertical Distance = h = dtan∅   - \frac{1}{2}g\frac{2}{cos0}   ^{2}

  Applying geometry

                              \frac{1}{cos o} = tan^{2} o + 1

  Vertical Distance = h = d tan∅   - 2 g (tan^{2} o + 1)

               substituting the given parameters

               800 = 2000 tan ∅ - 2 (9.81)( tan^{2} o + 1)

              800 = 2000 tan ∅ - 19.6( tan^{2} o + 1)  Equation 4

Replacing tan ∅ = Q     .....................Equation 5

In order to get a quadratic equation that can be easily solve.

            800 = 2000 Q - 19.6Q^{2} + 19.6

Rearranging 19.6Q^{2} - 2000 Q + 780.4 = 0

                    Q_{1} = 101.6291

                      Q_{2} = 0.411

    Inserting the value of Q Into Equation 5

                 tan ∅ = 101.63    or tan ∅ = 0.4114

Taking the Tan inverse of each value of Q

                  ∅ = 89.44°     ∅ = 22.37°
