A rock is thrown from the top of a 20-m building at an angle of 53° above the horizontal. If the horizontal range of the throw

is equal to the height of the building, with what speed was the rock thrown? What is the velocity of the rock just before it strikes the ground?

Answer:

28.5 m/s

18.22 m/s

Explanation:

h = 20 m, R = 20 m, theta = 53 degree

Let the speed of throwing is u and the speed with which it strikes the ground is v.

Horizontal distance, R = horizontal velocity x time

Let t be the time taken

20 = u Cos 53 x t

u t = 20/0.6 = 33.33 ..... (1)

Now use second equation of motion in vertical direction

h = u Sin 53 t - 1/2 g t^2

20 = 33.33 x 0.8 - 4.9 t^2     (ut = 33.33 from equation 1)

t = 1.17 s

Put in equation (1)

u = 33.33 / 1.17 = 28.5 m/s

Let v be the velocity just before striking the ground

vx = u Cos 53 = 28.5 x 0.6 = 17.15 m/s

vy = uSin 53 - 9.8 x 1.17

vy = 28.5 x 0.8 - 16.66

vy = 6.14 m/s

v^2 = vx^2 + vy^2 = 17.15^2 + 6.14^2

v = 18.22 m/s

Select answer about motion and newtons law and explain why it's correct 23POINTS NEED ASAP
zlopas [31]

The train would need the greatest amount of force due to weight! If you think of it, a baseball won't need much force to stop it, but if you have a heavy train, it will need excessive force to stop the train. The answer would be #3


I hope this answer helps!

Sorry if it doesn't make sense, as I don't know that much about physics! I am just thinking of what makes sense.

An automobile starter motor has an equivalent resistance of 0.0500Ω and is supplied by a 12.0-V battery with a 0.0100-Ω internal
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer

given,

resistance = 0.05 Ω

internal resistance of battery = 0.01 Ω

electromotive force = 12 V

a) ohm's law

        V = IR

     and volage

   V = \epsilon - Ir

now,

   IR = \epsilon - Ir

   I(R+r) = \epsilon

   I= \dfrac{\epsilon}{R+r}

inserting the values

   I= \dfrac{12}{0.05+0.01}

      I = 200 A

b) Voltage

   V = I R

   V = 200 x 0.05

   V = 10 V

c) Power

    P = I V

    P = 200 x 10 = 2000 W

d) total resistance = 0.05 + 0.09 = 0.14 Ω

 I= \dfrac{\epsilon}{R+r}

   I= \dfrac{12}{0.14+0.01}

     I = 80 A

     V = 80 x 0.05 = 4 V

     P = 4 x 80 = 320 W

Landslides are primarily caused by -
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Gravitational pull

Explanation:

There are four fundamental forces in nature:

- Gravitational force: it is an attractive force exerted between all objects having mass. Its magnitude is proportional to the product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects.

- Electromagnetic force: it is the force exerted between electrically charged object. It can be either attractive ore repulsive.  Its magnitude is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects.

- Strong nuclear force: it is the force responsible for holding protons and neutrons together in the nuclei of the atoms. It is attractive and acts only on a very short scale.

- Weak nuclear force: it is the force responsible for certain nuclear decay processes (radioactivity).

In this problem, landslides occur when certain masses of terrain are attracted towards the ground - they are attracted because of the gravitational force.

So, the correct answer is

gravitational pull
