Answer:

24°

Explanation:

sin(34°)/sin(x)=v2/v1

x=arcsin(2,1*sin(34°)/2,8)=24°

What is it called when a skydiver is no longer accelerating downward?
raketka [301]

Explanation:

Once the force of air resistance is as large as the force of gravity, a balance of forces is attained and the skydiver no longer accelerates. The skydiver is said to have reached a terminal velocity.

Which of the following statements is true in the case of a collision?
cluponka [151]

Answer: D

Reduced impact time will increase the impact force

Explanation: Collision occurs when two or more bodies collide and exert forces on each other within a short time.

If a body of mass M moving with a velocity V collide with another body, the kinetic energy of the body is equal to the work done by the body.

That is, K.E = 1/2mv^2 = F × s

Where workdone = Force × distance

Make F the subject of formula

Mv^2/2s = F

But V = distance s/time t

Substitute for V

Ms^2/2t^2s = F

Ms/2t^2 = F

From the equation above, we can deduce that F is inversely proportional to the square of time.

Therefore, the reduced impact time will increase the impact force

The standard wave format for any wave is wave. When depicting wave in standard wave format, the direction of motion must be rota
german

Answer:

Transverse wave  and Longitudinal wave  and Electromagnetic wave

Explanation:

  • An inverted wave is a wave in which the vibrations of the particles are perpendicular to the direction of wave motion.
  • Longitudinal waves, on the other hand, are waves in which the vibrations of the particles are parallel to the direction of wave motion.
  • Electromagnetic waves are waves that do not require medium media for transmission, including radio waves, microwaves, UV lights, etc.
  • Most electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature.

What is the displacement from a starting position of (14.0, 3.0) m to a final position of (−3.0, −4.0) m?
dem82 [27]

Answer:

change in y = -7

change in x = -17

magnitude of displacement = sqrt(7^2+17^2)

tan of angle below -x axis = 7/17

because in third quadrant where x and y are negative
