Answer:

x = 41t is correct

Explanation:

The horizontal component of the rock's velocity is 120(cos70°). You would plug the time the rock landed into this equation.

<span>A) x = 41t
The classic equation for distance is velocity multiplied by time. And unfortunately, all of your available options have the form of that equation. In fact, the only difference between any of the equations is what looks to be velocity. And in order to solve the problem initially, you need to divide the velocity vector into a vertical velocity vector and a horizontal velocity vector. And the horizontal velocity vector is simply the cosine of the angle multiplied by the total velocity. So H = 120*cos(70) = 120*0.34202 = 41.04242 So the horizontal velocity is about 41 m/s. Looking at the available options, only "A" even comes close.</span>

Nitella [24]

Answer:The electric field is zero and the potential is positive.

Explanation:

Two identical positive charges are separated by a certain distance and midway between charges two identical positive charges are placed near each other.

So the Electric field at midway is zero because the electric field due to both charges add up to give zero electric field.(because they point in opposite direction)

Potential is scalar quantity and charges are positive so they add up to give potential.

hammer [34]

Answer:

$a_M=1.92a_A$

Explanation:

$\omega_M=\omega_A$ = Angular speed

$r_M$ = Distance of Mary = 11.5 ft

$r_A$ = Distance of Alex = 6 ft

Ratio of centripetal acceleration is given by

$\dfrac{a_M}{a_A}=\dfrac{\omega_M^2r_M}{\omega_A^2r_A}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{a_M}{a_A}=\dfrac{r_M}{r_A}\\\Rightarrow a_M=a_A\dfrac{r_M}{r_A}\\\Rightarrow a_M=\dfrac{11.5}{6}a_A\\\Rightarrow a_M=1.92a_A$

Mary's centripetal acceleration is 1.92 times the centripetal acceleration of Alex

In reality we don't see the galaxy we see it's reflection .. the light hits or got emitted by the star travel all the way long to hit our eyes .. we see their reflection . everything around you that you see is it's reflection
