Gravitational force is inversely proportion to the square of distance between 2 objects. So a satellite will have greatest speed when it's closer to earth.

A projectile is launched with an initial velocity of 25 m/s at an angle of 30° above the horizontal. The projectile reaches maxi
Alchen [17]

Answer:

x ≈ 56 m

Explanation:

vertical initial velocity =v_{0y}(t) = 25 m/s* sin(30°)= 12.5 m/s

height = h

h =v_{0y}t+\frac{at^{2}}{2} \\\\65m = 12.5m/s*t + \frac{9.8m/s^{2}*t^{2}}{2} \\\\t=2.584 s

t- time is found solving quadratic equation.

horizontal velocity = v_{0x}=25m/s*cos(30^{o})=21.65 m/s

Horizontal velocity is constant, so distance x=v_{0x}*t =21.65 m/s *2.584 s=55.9 = 56 m

What is the answer?
Andrews [41]

Answer:

6.26 m/s

Explanation:

Pretty slow.... the PE (Potential Energy) at 2m will be converted to KE (Kinetic Energy) at the bottom of the track (neglecting friction)

PE    =   KE

mgh = 1/2 mv^2     divide both sides of the equation by 'm'

gh    = 1/2 v^2             multiply both sides by 2

2 gh = v^2               take sqrt of both sides

v = sqrt ( 2gh) = sqrt ( 2*9.81*2) = 6.26 m/s

We humans are on track to increase the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere so that the concentration in the future more than double
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Rapid increase in the temperature of the earth.

Explanation:

CO2 is known as a greenhouse gas. It is able to trap and retain infrared radiation in the earths atmosphere thereby causing a gradual rise in the temperature of the earth. If this doubled concentration of CO2 is sustained over a long period of time, it will eventually lead to melting of polar ice caps and consequent flooding. Gradually, the earth would be destroyed due to the scorching heat and attendant flood.
