Projectile SHOW WORK WILL MARK BRANLIEST (Draw Picture and Label)

a) The horizontal distance covered by the projectile is 600 m

b) The projectile reaches its maximum height after 3.00 s

c) The altitude of the highest point is 44.1 m

Explanation:

a)

The motion of the projectile consists of two independent motions:  

- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction  

- A uniformly accelerated motion, with constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity) in the downward direction  

In this part A, we just need to analyze the horizontal motion. We know that:

  • The projectile travels horizontally with a constant velocity ov v_x = 100 m/s
  • The total time of flight of the projectile is t=6.00 s

Therefore, the horizontal distance covered by the projectile is given by

x=v_x t

And substituting, we find

x=(100)(6.0) = 600 m

b)

For this part, we need to analyze the vertical motion of the projectile.

First, we want to find the initial vertical velocity. We can do it by using the equation for the vertical displacement:

s=u_y t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

where:

u_y is the initial vertical velocity

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (negative because it is downward)

t is the time

s is the vertical displacement

We know that the total time of flight is t = 6.00 s: this means that when t=6, the projectile returns to its initial vertical position, so s = 0. Substituting and solving for u_y, we get

u_y = - \frac{1}{2}at=-\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(6)=29.4 m/s

The vertical velocity then as a function of t is given by

v_y = u_y + at

And at the maximum height, it becomes zero: v_y = 0. Substituting and solving for t, we find the time at which the projectile reaches the maximum height:

t=-\frac{u_y}{a}=-\frac{29.4}{-9.8}=3.00 s

c)

To find the altitude of the highest point in the path, we use again the equation:

s=u_y t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

where

u_y = 29.4 m/s is the initial vertical velocity

t = 3.00 s is the time at which the projectile reaches the highest point

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Substituting the values, we find

s=(29.4)(3.00)+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(3.00)^2=44.1 m

So, the highest point is at 44.1 m above the ground.

A 5 kg fish swimming at 1 m/s swallows an absentminded 500 g fish swimming toward it at a velocity that brings both fish to a ha
AlexFokin [52]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the conservation of momentum. Momentum is defined as the product between mass and velocity of each body. And its conservation as the equality between the initial and final momentum. Mathematically described as

m_1u_1+m_2u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_f

Here

m_1 = Mass of big fish

m_2 = Mass of small fish

v_1 = Velocity of big fish

v_2 = Velocity of small fish

v_F = Final Velocity

The big fish eats small fish and the final velocity is zero. Rearrange the equation for the initial velocity of small fish we have

m_1u_1=-m_2u_2

u_2 = -\frac{m_1u_1}{m_2}

Replacing we have,

u_2 = -\frac{(5kg)(1m/s)}{0.5kg}

u_2 = -10m/s

The negative sign indicates that the small fish is swimming in the direction opposite to that of the big fish.

Therefore the speed of the small fish is 10m/s
