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

If a 6V battery is connected to a light bulb whose resistance is 55,000Ω How much current will flow in the circuit?
notka56 [123]

Answer:

Current, I = 0.000109 Amps

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Voltage = 6V

Resistance = 55,000 Ohms

To find the current flowing through the circuit;

Ohm's law states that at constant temperature, the current flowing in an electrical circuit is directly proportional to the voltage applied across the two points and inversely proportional to the resistance in the electrical circuit.

Mathematically, Ohm's law is given by the formula;

V = IR

Where;

V represents voltage measured in voltage.

I represents current measured in amperes.

R represents resistance measured in ohms.

Making current the subject of formula, we have;

I = \frac {V}{R}

Substituting into the formula, we have;

I = \frac {6}{55000}

Current, I = 0.000109 Amps

If two vectors are perpendicular to each other, how should you add them?
Aleksandr [31]

Let us consider two vectors A and B.

As per the question, the two vectors are perpendicular to each other.

Hence the angle between them  \theta =90 degree

We are asked to calculate the resultant of these two vectors.

As per parallelogram law of vector addition, the resultant of two vectors are-

                      R=\sqrt{A^{2}+ B^{2}+2ABcos\theta

                                =\sqrt{ A^{2}+ B^{2}+2AB*cos90}    [cos90=0]

                                =\sqrt{ A^{2}+ B^{2}

This is the way by which we can add two perpendicular vectors.

Five hundred million years ago, basaltic lava flowed in an area now known as Monticello, the historic home of Thomas Jefferson.
aev [14]

Explanation:

               Igneous -  metamorphic -  sedimentary

A rock cycle provides the cyclic transformation of one rock type to another in nature.

There are three main types of rock involved in the rock cycle;

  • igneous rocks are derived from the cooling and solidification of molten magma
  • metamorphic rocks are changed rocks subjected to intense pressure and temperature
  • sedimentary rocks are derived from rock sediments that have been lithified.

The history of the rock in Monticello begins with igneous rock formation. Basalt is an igneous rock that forms from the cooling and solidification of molten magma. Under intense pressure and temperature regimes, they are changed to metamorphic rocks.

Agents of denudation such as wind, water and glacier weathers the rock and disintegrates it. They are then carried into basins where they are deposited. Here they form sedimentary rock.

The process still goes on as the sedimentary rock gets taken into depth, they can either melt to form igneous rock or be changed to metamorphic rocks.
