In the formula vy=a t what is the value of a for an object in projectile motion

Physics
1 answer:
Rus_ich [418]3 years ago
8 0
I THINK that formula gives the vertical speed of a projectile at the time
't' seconds after it's launched. 

(I can't really be sure of anything, because whenever you show a formula
to other people, you're supposed to tell them what each variable in it means,
and you didn't do that.)

If I'm on the right track, then the 'a' is the acceleration of gravity wherever
the projectile is flying.  If that happens to be on Earth, then the acceleration
is  9.8 meters per second² .

A train travels 99 kilometers in 2 hours, and then 90 kilometers in 3 hours. What is its average speed?
Agata [3.3K]

Average speed =

(total distance)/(total time)

Average speed = (99+90)/(2+3)

That's (189 km) / (5 hr)

Average speed = 37.8 km/hr

A car drives to the east in a time of 4 hours. Then, immediately (not realistic, but just assume this is the case for this probl
diamong [38]

Answer:

Average speed in east direction speed=\frac{distance}{time}=\frac{28}{4}=7km/hr            

Explanation:

We have given average speed of the entire trip = 5 km/hr

First the car 4 hours then travels 12 km in 4 hours

So total time of the trip = 4+4 = 8 hours

So total distance traveled in the trip d=speed\times time = 5\times 8=40km

As the car travel 12 km in 4 hours to the west

So distance traveled in 4 hour in east = 40 -12 = 28 km

Time in east direction = 4 hour

So average speed in east direction speed=\frac{distance}{time}=\frac{28}{4}=7km/hr

A scientist notices that an oil slick floating on water when viewed from above has many different rainbow colors reflecting off
Semenov [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

In case of oil slick a thin layer of oil is formed on water . This thin layer creates a rainbow of colour . The phenomenon is due to interference of light waves , one reflected from the upper surface of oil and the other reflected from the lower surface of the oil.

For formation of bright colour

2 μ t = ( 2n + 1 ) λ / 2

μ is refractive index of oil ,  t is thickness of oil layer  λ is wave length of light falling on the layer .

given μ = 1.2 ,   λ = 750 x 10⁻⁹   ,

2 x 1.2 t = ( 2n + 1 ) 750 x 10⁻⁹ / 2

For minimum thickness n = 0

2.4 t = 375 x 10⁻⁹

t = 156.25 n m

B ) If the refractive index of layer of medium below oil is less than that of oil , the condition of formation of colour changes

The new condition is

2 μ t = n λ

2  x 1.5 t  = 750 nm ,         n = 1 for minimum wavelength .

t = 250 nm

C ) Light mostly transmitted means dark spot is formed at that point .

For that to be observed from water side , the condition is

2 μ t = ( 2n + 1 ) λ / 2

λ = 4μ t / ( 2n + 1 )

For maximum wavelength n = 0

λ = 4μ t

= 4 x 1.5 x 200 nm

= 1200 nm .
