<span> Let,
initial velocity = v m/sec,

Angle, x = 40 degrees,

horizontal-componant = v.cos(x) = 12 m/sec,
OR,
v = 12 / cos(40) = 12/0.766 = 15.67 meters/sec >================< ANSWER </span> Source(s): Fazaldin A <span> · 4 years ago </span>

Answer:

Magnitude of initial velocity = Vi = 15.7 m/s

Explanation:

Horizontal component of velocity = Vi × Cosθ = 12   ……….. (i)

Where,  

θ  = Angle at which ball is thrown above the horizontal = 40 degrees  

Put θ = 40 degrees in equation (i),

Vi × Cos(40)= 12

Vi = 12/ Cos(40)

Vi = 12/0.766

Vi = 15.66 m/s

Vi = 15.7 m/s

What potential difference is needed to give a helium nucleus (q=2e) 85.0 kev of kinetic energy?
Vilka [71]
The kinetic energy K given to the helium nucleus is equal to its potential energy, which is 
E=q \Delta V
where q=2e is the charge of the helium nucleus, and \Delta V is the potential difference applied to it.
Since we know the kinetic energy, we have
E=K=85~keV=q \Delta V
and from this we can find the potential difference:
\Delta V =  \frac{K}{q}= \frac{85~keV}{2e}=42.5~kV

One student did an experiment on the rock cycle.
Nonamiya [84]
First, when the student added the layers of wax over each other, this became a representation of sedimentary rocks.

Then the student folded his/her palm and squeezed the layers of wax. This means that the student applied heat and pressure on the wax (sedimentary rocks)

Referring to the diagram below which represents the rock cycle, we will find that applying heat and pressure on sedimentary rocks would convert these rocks into metamorphic rocks.

Based on the above, the best choice would be:
<span>d. Heat and pressure can change sedimentary rocks into metamorphic rocks.</span>

.<br> Why are meteorites moving?
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

Glow

Explanation:

Actually, it is the air in front of the meteoroid that heats up. The particle is traveling at speeds between 20 and 30 kilometers per second. It compresses the air in front, causing the air to get hot. The air is so hot it begins to glow — creating a meteor - the streak of light observed from Earth.

Hope this helped!
