Answer:

The distance will be x = 41.7 [m]

Explanation:

We must first find the components in the x & y axes of the initial velocity.

(v_{o})_{x} = 15*cos(20)= 14.09[m/s]\\(v_{o})_{y} = 15*sin(20)= 5.13[m/s]

The acceleration is the gravity acceleration therefore.

g = 9.81 [m/s^2]

Now we can calculate how long it takes to fall.

y=(v_{o})_{y}*t-0.5*g*t^2\\-28 = 5.13*t-0.5*9.81*t^2\\-28=-4.905*t^2+5.13*t\\4.905*t^2-5.13*t=28\\t = 2.96[s]

With this time we can find the horizontal distance that runs the projectile.

x=(v_{o})_{x}*t\\x=14.09*2.96\\x=41.7[m]

dedylja [7]

Answer:

\theta = 76.9 degree

Explanation:

As we know that the resultant of two vectors is given as

R = \sqrt{F_1^2 + F_2^2 + 2F_1 F_2 cos\theta

here we know that

R = 87 Lb

F_1 = 41 Lb

F_2 = 68 Lb

now we have

87 = \sqrt{41^2 + 68^2 + 2(41)(68)cos\theta

87^2 = 6305 + 5576 cos\theta

\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{1264}{5576})

\theta = 76.9 degree

A submerged submarine alters its _____ to rise or fall in the water.
Dima020 [189]
Are there any answer choices?
Submarines use <span>buoyancy by filling ballast tanks up with water. When they are filled with water, they are more dense than the surrounding water, so they are able to sink. If they want to rise, they fill these tanks up with air so that the density is less than the water it surrounds. 
Hope this helps! :)</span>
