Answer:

The initial speed of the cork was 1.57 m/s.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equation of the horizontal position of the cork in function of time is the following:

x = x0 + v0 · t · cos θ

Where:

x = horizontal position at time t.

x0 = initial horizontal position.

v0 = initial speed of the cork.

t = time.

θ = launching angle.

If we place the origin of the frame of reference at the launching point, then x0 = 0.

We know that at t = 1.25 s, x = 1.50 m. We also know the launching angle so we can solve the equation of horizontal position for the initial speed, v0:

x = v0 · t · cos θ

x / t · cos θ = v0

v0 = 1.50 m / (1.25 s · cos (40.0°)

v0 = 1.57 m/s

The initial speed of the cork was 1.57 m/s.

Answer:

1.57 m/s.

Explanation:

Horizontal velocity = distance/time

= 1.5/1.25

= 1.2 m/s

Vo * CosΘ = Vx

Cos(40) = 1.2/x

= 1.2/cos(40)

= 1.57 m/s.

If the voltage across the first capacitor (the one with capacitance
RoseWind [281]
The answer to this question is: it depends. It depends on the arrangement of the capacitors in a circuit: it can be either in series or in parallel. The difference is shown in the picture. 

Capacitors are like batteries in a way that they store power from the source. It has some rules depending on the type of circuit. For parallel circuits, the voltage across each capacitor is equal. Therefore, V₁=V₂=V₃.

On the other hand, if the capacitors are arranged in series, the voltage across each capacitor should add up to the total voltage of the source. Therefore, V₁+V₂+V₃ = Total Voltage.

Express the kinetic energy K in terms of the potential energy U.<br><br><br> K=GMm/2R
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

K = -½U

Explanation:

From Newton's law of gravitation, the formula for gravitational potential energy is;

U = -GMm/R

Where,

G is gravitational constant

M and m are the two masses exerting the forces

R is the distance between the two objects

Now, in the question, we are given that kinetic energy is;

K = GMm/2R

Re-rranging, we have;

K = ½(GMm/R)

Comparing the equation of kinetic energy to that of potential energy, we can derive that gravitational kinetic energy can be expressed in terms of potential energy as;

K = -½U

Figure 10.20 in your textbook shows an energy diagram for a system with total energy E1. Suppose the system's total energy is E2
wolverine [178]

The particles can undergo small oscillations around x₂.

The given parameters;

  • <em>initial energy of the particles = E₁</em>
  • <em>final energy of the particles, E₂ = 0.33E₁</em>

The movement of the particles depends on the kinetic energy of the particles.

When kinetic energy of the particles is 100%, the particles can oscillate from x₁ to x₅.

However, when the total energy of this particles is reduced to one-third (¹/₃) or 33% of the initial energy of the particle, the oscillation of the particles will be reduced.

  • The maximum position the particle can oscillate is x₅
  • The half position the particles can oscillate is x₃

Since 33% is less than the half of the energy of the particle, the particle will oscillate between x₁ and x₂.

Thus, we can conclude that the particles can undergo small oscillations around x₂.

How does Sonar work?i will mark brainliest pls help
Fittoniya [83]
I don't like the wording of any of the choices on the list.

SONAR generates a short pulse of sound, like a 'peep' or a 'ping',
focused in one direction.  If there's a solid object in that direction,
then some of the sound that hits it gets reflected back, toward the
source.  The source listens to hear if any of the sound that it sent
out returns to it.  If it hears its own 'ping' come back, it measures
the time it took for the sound to go out and come back.  That tells
the SONAR equipment that there IS a solid object in that direction,
and also HOW FAR away it is.

RADAR works exactly the same way, except RADAR uses radio waves.
