Answer:

A.Gravity acts to pull the object down

D.The object’s inertia carries it forward.

E.The path of the object is curved.

Explanation:

The motion of a projectile consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion along the horizontal direction, with constant horizontal speed

- A vertical motion with constant acceleration of g = 9.8 m/s^2 downward (acceleration due to gravity), due to the presence of the force of gravity, so the vertical velocity changes (increases in the downward direction)

As a result, the combined motion of the projectile has a curved trajectory (parabolic, more specifically). So the following options are correct:

A.Gravity acts to pull the object down --> gravity acts along the vertical direction

D.The object’s inertia carries it forward. --> there are no forces acting along the horizontal direction (if we neglect air resistance), so the horizontal motion continues with constant speed

E.The path of the object is curved

Match each property with the benefit it provides to people on Earth. A. magnetic field filters cancer-causing rays from the sun
vodomira [7]

The correct matching are the following:

  • A. magnetic field: prevents charged particles from the sun from reaching the surface
  • B. ozone: filters cancer-causing rays from the sun
  • C. carbon dioxide: retains heat energy from the sun in the atmosphere
  • D. water in oceans, lakes, rivers and streams: moderates changes in temperature on the surface

The electromagnetic field of the Earth protects us from solar wind by deflecting it. Without it, the charged particles would strip away our ozone, which will lead to the end of life on Earth.

The ozone is a layer in the stratosphere that filters the suns rays. It filters the UV rays by absorbing it. This prevents the UV rays from damaging the surface of the Earth.

Carbon dioxide retains heat in the atmosphere, which creates a greenhouse effect. It is beneficial for us, but because human activity like industrial activities emit so much carbon in the atmosphere that it ends up being harmful.

Bodies of water found on Earth regulate the temperature of the Earth through ocean currents. It brings in both cold and warm air to land which also affect precipitation.

Long explanation, I know, but maybe this will help you out in the long run. Good Luck!

A jet aircraft is traveling at 262 m/s in hor-
NeTakaya

Solution :

Speed of the air craft, $S_a$ = 262 m/s

Fuel burns at the rate of, $S_b$ = 3.92 kg/s

Rate at which the engine takes in air, $S_{air}$ = 85.9 kg/s

Speed of the exhaust gas that are ejected relative to the aircraft, $S_{exh}$ =921 m/s

Therefore, the upward thrust of the jet engine is given by

$F=S_{air}(S_{exh}-S_a)+(S_b \times S_{exh})$

F = 85.9(921 - 262) + (3.92 x 921)

   = 4862635.79 + 3610.32

   = $4.8 \times 10^6 \ N$

Therefore thrust of the jet engine is $4.8 \times 10^6 \ N$.
