Answer:

26.2 m/s

Explanation:

We can find the speed of the cannonball just by analyzing its vertical motion. In fact, the initial vertical velocity is

u_y = u sin \theta (1)

where u is the initial speed and \theta = 45.0^{\circ} is the angle of projection.

We can therefore use the following suvat equation for the vertical motion of the ball:

v_y = u_y + at

where v_y is the vertical velocity at time t, and a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity. The time of flight is 3.78 s, so we know that the ball reaches its maximum height at half this time:

t=\frac{3.78}{2}=1.89 s

And at the maximum height, the vertical velocity is zero:

v_y=0

Substituting these values, we find the initial vertical velocity:

u_y = v_y - at = 0-(-9.8)(1.89)=18.5 m/s

And using eq.(1) we now find the initial speed:

u=\frac{u_y}{sin \theta}=\frac{18.5}{sin 45.0^{\circ}}=26.2 m/s

A ball is dropped from a window and takes two seconds to reach the ground .it starts from rest and reaches a final speed of 20m/
Akimi4 [234]
The ball can't reach the speed of 20 m/s in two seconds, unless you THROW it down from the window with a little bit of initial speed. If you just drop it, then the highest speed it can have after two seconds is 19.6 m/s .

If an object starts from rest and its speed after 2 seconds is 20 m/s, then its acceleration is 20/2 = 10 m/s^2 .

(Gravity on Earth is only 9.8 m/s^2.)

A body travels 10 meters during the first 5 seconds of its travel, and it travels a total of 30 meters over the first 10 seconds
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

A body travels 10 meters during the first 5 seconds of its travel,and a total of 30 meters over the first 10 seconds of its travel

20miles / 5sec = 4miles /sec would be the average speed for the last 20 m

Explanation:

The answer is 4 m/s.

In the first 5 seconds, a body travelled 10 meters. In the first 10 seconds of the travel, the body travelled a total of 30 meters, which means that in the last 5 seconds, it travelled 20 meters (30m + 10m).

The relation of speed (v), distance (d), and time (t) can be expressed as:

v = d/t

We need to calculate the speed of the second 5 seconds of the travel:

d = 20 m (total 30 meters - first 10 meters)

t = 5 s (time from t = 5 seconds to t = 10 seconds)

Thus:

v = 20m / 5s = 4 m/s

A current of 16.0 mA is maintained in a single circular loop of 1.90 m circumference. A magnetic field of 0.790 T is directed pa
pav-90 [236]

Answer

given,

current (I) = 16 mA

circumference of the circular loop (S)= 1.90 m

Magnetic field (B)= 0.790 T

S = 2 π r

1.9 = 2 π r

r = 0.3024 m

a) magnetic moment of loop

    M= I A

    M=16 \times 10^{-3} \times \pi \times r^2

   M=16 \times 10^{-3} \times \pi \times 0.3024^2

   M=4.59 \times 10^{-3}\ A m^2

b)  torque exerted in the loop

 \tau = M\ B

 \tau = 4.59 \times 10^{-3}\times 0.79

 \tau = 3.63 \times 10^{-3} N.m

Mass and Weight: What is the mass of an object that experiences a gravitational force of 685 N near Earth's surface where g
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

m = 69.9 kg

Explanation:

The mass and the weight of an object are two different quantities. Mass is basically the amount of matter that is present in a body. It remains same everywhere in the universe and measured in kilograms.

Weight is basically a force. It is the force by which earth attracts everything towards itself. The weight of an object changes from planet to planet, with the change in value of the gravitational acceleration (g).

Therefore, the relation between mass and weight of an object is given by the following formula:

W = mg

m = W/g

where,

m = mass = ?

W = Weight = 685 N

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

m = (685 N)/(9.8 m/s²)

<u>m = 69.9 kg</u>
