If you ignore air resistance after an initial force launches a projectile, name all forces acting on it as it moves through the

air. What does this force cause the object to do?

Answer:

Neglecting air resistance, the only force acting on a projectile is gravity.

This force causes the object to accelerate.

Explanation:

As a projectile moves upward, there is a downward force and a downward acceleration due to force of gravity. That is, as the object is moving upward, force of gravity acting on the projectile is causing a steady slowing down of the projectile.

Hence, Gravity is the downward force upon a projectile that influences its vertical motion and causes the parabolic trajectory that is characteristic of projectiles.

From Newton's law of motion, it suggest that force is required to cause an acceleration and not motion. Therefore, force of gravity causes the object to accelerate downwards.

In a double-slit experiment, light from two monochromatic light sources passes through the same double slit. The light from the
GaryK [48]

We will determine the wavelength through the relationship given by the distance between slits, this relationship is given under the function

y = \frac{m\lambda}{d}

Here,

m = Number of order bright fringe

\lambda = Wavelength

d = Distance between slits

Both distance are the same, then

y_1 = y_2

\frac{m_1\lambda_1 r}{d} = \frac{m_2\lambda_2 r}{d}

\frac{m_1\lambda_1}{m_2\lambda_2} =1

 Rearranging to find the second wavelength

m_1 \lambda_1 = m_2 \lambda _2

\lambda_2 = \frac{m_1\lambda_1}{m_2}

\lambda_2 = \frac{7(629)}{8}

\lambda_2 = 550.3nm

Therefore the wavelength of the light coming from the second monochromatic light source is 550.3nm

A simple pendulum is made from a 0.54-m-long string and a small ball attached to its free end. The ball is pulled to one side th
Serga [27]

Answer:

0.37sec

Explanation:

Period of oscillation of a simple pendulum of length L is:

T = 2 π × √ (L /g)

L=length of string 0.54m

g=acceleration due to gravity

T-period

T = 2 x 3.14 x √[0.54/9.8]

T = 1.47sec

An oscillating pendulum, or anything else in nature that involves "simple harmonic" (sinusoidal) motion, spends 1/4 of its period going from zero speed to maximum speed, and another 1/4 going from maximum speed to zero speed again, etc. After four quarter-periods it is back where it started.

The ball will first have V(max) at T/4,

=>V(max) = 1.47/4 = 0.37 sec

Why do aeroplanes take longer to fly west than east?
PolarNik [594]

Every planet/moon has global wind that are mostly determined by the way the planet/moon rotates and how evenly the Sun illuminates it. On the Earth the equator gets much more Sun than the poles. resulting in warmer air at the equator than the poles and creating circulation cells (or "Hadley Cells") which consist of warm air rising over the equator and then moving North and South from it and back round.

The Earth is also rotating. When any solid body rotates, bits of it that are nearer its axis move slower than those which are further away. As you move north (or south) from the equator, you are moving closer to the axis of the Earth and so the air which started at the equator and moved north (or south) will be moving faster than the ground it is over (it has the rotation speed of the ground at the equator, not the ground which is is now over). This results in winds which always move from the west to the east in the mid latitudes.

Which one of the following statements is false?
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

d) False. If the angular momentum is zero, it implies in electro without turning, which would create a collapse towards the nucleus, so in both models the moment must be different from zero

Explanation:

Affirmations

a) true. The orbits are accurate in the Bohr model and probabilistic in quantum mechanics

b) True. If both give the same results and use the same quantum number (n)

c) True. If in angular momentum it is quantized, in the Bohr model too but it does not justify it

d) False. If the angular momentum is zero, it implies in electro without turning, which would create a collapse towards the nucleus, so in both models the moment must be different from zero

si un disco fue lanzado con una fuerza de 1000 N, y el disc recorrió una distancia e o.6 m ¿Qué trabajo efectuó el lanzador ?
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

Trabajo realizado = 600 Nm

Explanation:

Dados los siguientes datos;

Fuerza = 1000 Newton

Distancia = 0.6 metros

Para encontrar el trabajo realizado;

Trabajo \; realizado = fuerza * distancia

Sustituyendo en la ecuación, tenemos;

Trabajo \; realizado = 1000 * 0.6

Trabajo realizado = 600 Nm
