Every closed orbit is an ellipse.

If the big body just bends the small body's path but doesn't capture it, then the small body's path is a hyperbola.

A golf ball is struck with a five iron on level ground. it lands 100.0 m away 4.60 s later. what was the magnitude and direction
finlep [7]

consider the motion in x-direction

v_{ox} = initial velocity in x-direction = ?

X = horizontal distance traveled = 100 m

a_{x} = acceleration along x-direction = 0 m/s²

t = time of travel = 4.60 sec

Using the equation

X = v_{ox} t + (0.5) a_{x} t²

100 =  v_{ox} (4.60)

v_{ox} = 21.7 m/s


consider the motion along y-direction

v_{oy} = initial velocity in y-direction = ?

Y = vertical displacement  = 0 m

a_{y} = acceleration along x-direction = - 9.8 m/s²

t = time of travel = 4.60 sec

Using the equation

Y = v_{oy} t + (0.5) a_{y} t²

0 = v_{oy} (4.60) + (0.5) (- 9.8) (4.60)²

v_{oy} = 22.54 m/s

initial velocity is given as

v_{o} = sqrt((v_{ox})² + (v_{oy})²)

v_{o} = sqrt((21.7)² + (22.54)²) = 31.3 m/s

direction: θ = tan⁻¹(22.54/21.7) = 46.12 deg

The time T in seconds for a pendulum of length L feet to make one swing is given by Upper T=2\pi \sqrt((L)/(36)). How long is a
Andreyy89

Answer:

3.6ft

Explanation:

Using= 2*π*sqrt(L/32)

To solve for L, first move 2*n over:

T/(2*π) = sqrt(L/32)

Next,eliminate the square root by squaring both sides

(T/(2*π))2 = L/32

or

T2/(4π2) = L/32

Lastly, multiply both sides by 32 to yield:

32T2/(4π2) = L

and simplify:

8T²/π²= L

Hence, L(T) = 8T²/π²

But T = 2.1

Pi= 3.14

8(2.1)²/3.14²

35.28/9.85

= 3.6feet

1. As you get ready for bed, you roll up one of your socks into a tight ball and toss it into the laundry
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

When you toss a rolled up sock across the room, it travels faster as it becomes round and has more weight added on it and this causes the sock to travel in the direction you wish and this gives you a high chance of the sock going straight into the laundry basket, no matter how far away you are.

On the other hand, throwing a sock without rolling it up will cause the sock to just flat down as you throw it. It will travel at a low speed because it has no weight on it since it is flat, and if you try to throw it, it will atleast land 21 cm away from you. About a 0% chance of it getting in the basket.

Hope this helped! =>

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Hello!

\large\boxed{800Ns}

Remember that impulse is equivalent to:

Impulse = force (N) × time (s)

Plug in the given force and time:

Impulse = 25 × 32

Impulse = 800 Ns

I want to know about the inventions caused due to rain. Like the Benjamin Franklin's Lightning Conductor. I have to make a chart
nydimaria [60]
Franklin had been waiting for an opportunity like this. He wanted to demonstrate the electrical nature of lightning, and to do so, he needed a thunderstorm.

He had his materials at the ready: a simple kite made with a large silk handkerchief, a hemp string, and a silk string. He also had a house key, a Leyden jar (a device that could store an electrical charge for later use), and a sharp length of wire. His son William assisted him.

Franklin had originally planned to conduct the experiment atop a Philadelphia church spire, according to his contemporary, British scientist Joseph Priestley (who, incidentally, is credited with discovering oxygen), but he changed his plans when he realized he could achieve the same goal by using a kite.
