This question is asking you to determine if individual atoms or systems, or both have these types of energy. A system would be "all the molecules or atoms" whereas an individual atom is "each of the molecules or atoms."

Answers:

A. All the molecules or atoms in motion have kinetic energy.

B. Each molecule or atom in motion has kinetic energy.

D. All the molecules or atoms in motion have thermal energy.

The only incorrect answer is C because individual atoms don't have thermal energy, only when they interact with other atoms. Still, atoms do have kinetic energy, which has the potential to turn into heat energy in these interactions.

Hope this helps!

You are watching an archery tournament when you start wondering how fast an arrow is shot from the bow. Remembering your physics

lianna [129]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em><u>Velocity of throwing arrow = 43.13 m/s.</u></em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In the question,

Let us say the height from which the arrow was shot = h

Distance traveled by the arrow in horizontal = 61 m

Angle made by the arrow with the ground = 2°

So,

From the <u>equations of the motion</u>,

$61 =u.t\\t=\frac{61}{u}$

Now,

Also,

Finally, the angle made is 2 degrees with the horizontal.

So,

Final horizontal velocity = v.cos20°

Final vertical velocity = v.sin20°

Now,

u = v.cos20° (No acceleration in horizontal)

Also,

$v=u+at\\vsin20=0+9.8(t)\\t=\frac{v.sin20}{9.8}$

So,

We can say that,

$\frac{v.sin20}{9.8}=\frac{61}{v.cos20}\\v^{2}.sin20.cos20=597.8\\v^{2}=1860.56\\v=43.13\,m/s$

<em><u>Therefore, the velocity with which the arrow was shot by the archer is 43.13 m/s.</u></em>

Answer:

d_2 = 4d_1

Explanation:

The range or horizontal distance covered by a projectile projected with a velocity U at an angel of θ to the horizontal is given by

R = U²sin2θ/g

Let the range or horizontal distance of ball 1 with initial velocity U projected at an angle θ = 55° be

d_1 = U²sin2θ/g

Let the range or horizontal distance of ball 2 with initial velocity V = 2U projected at an angle θ = 55° be

d_2 = V²sin2θ/g

= (2U)²sin2θ/g

= 4U²sin2θ/g

= 4d_1 (since d_1 = U²sin2θ/g)

So, the ball 2 lands a distance d_2 = 4d_1 from the initial point.
