Answer:

1058.78 ft/sec

Explanation:

Horizontal Component of Velocity; This is the velocity of a body that act on the horizontal axis. I.e Velocity along x-axis

The horizontal velocity of a body can be calculated as shown below.\

Vh = Vcos∅.......................... Equation 1

Where Vh = horizontal component of the velocity, V = The velocity acting between the horizontal and the vertical axis, ∅ = Angle the velocity make with the horizontal.

Given: V = 1178 ft/sec, ∅ = 26°

Substitute into equation 1

Vh = 1178cos26

Vh = 1178(0.8988)

Vh = 1058.78 ft/sec

Hence the horizontal component of the velocity = 1058.78 ft/sec

A lightweight string is wrapped several times around the rim of a small hoop. If the free end of the string is held in place and
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let T be the tension

For linear motion of hoop downwards

mg -T = ma , m is mass of the hoop . a is linear acceleration of CG of hoop .

For rotational motion of hoop

Torque by tension

T x R ,      R is radius of hoop.

Angular acceleration be α,

Linear acceleration a = α R

So TR = I  α

= I  a / R

a = TR² / I

Putting this value in earlier relation

mg -T = m TR² / I

mg = T ( 1 + m R² / I )

T = mg / ( 1 + m R² / I )

mg / ( 1 + R² / k² )

Tension is less than mg or weight because denominator of the expression is more than 1.

What is grandfather Paradox?
olasank [31]

A grandfather paradox is a situation where individual travels to the past and then introduces a change which affects or contradicts the present.

<h3>What is a grandfather paradox?</h3>

A paradox is a situation or statement which involves two contradictions.

A grandfather paradox is a situation which is defined by the ability of an individual to travel to a time in the past usually before the birth of their grandfather and then introduces a change which affects or contradicts the present. For example, killing the grandfather to prevent their birth.

In conclusion, a grandfather paradox is is an event which contradicts the present as a result of a change done to the past.
