A cannon fired horizontally at 20 m/s from the top of a cliff lands 80m away. how tall is the cliff

Physics

Answer:

The height of the cliff is, h = 78.4 m

Explanation:

Given,

The horizontal velocity of the projectile, Vx = 20 m/s

The range of the projectile, s = 80 m

The projectile projected from a height is given by the formula

                            <em> S = Vx [Vy + √(Vy² + 2gh)] / g </em>

Therefore,  

                            h = S²g/2Vx²

Substituting the values

                             h = 80² x 9.8/ (2 x 20²)

                                = 78.4 m

Hence, the height of the cliff is, h = 78.4 m

A Car with drives into a solid object with 70 km/h, from which height would it fall if it was in free fall?​
Ilya [14]

Answer:

18.9 m.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 70 km/h

Height (h) =?

Next, we shall convert 70 km/h to m/s. This can be obtained as follow:

3.6 km/h = 1 m/s

Therefore,

70 km/h = 70 km/h × 1 m/s / 3.6 km/h

70 km/h = 19.44 m/s

Finally, we shall determine the height. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 19.44 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Height (h) =?

v² = u² + 2gh

19.44² = 0² + (2 × 10 × h)

377.9136 = 0 + 20h

377.9136 = 20h

Divide both side by 20

h = 377.9136 / 20

h = 18.9 m

Thus, the car will fall from a height of 18.9 m

A 30 ohm resistor and a 20 ohm resistor are
Reptile [31]

The current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor is 2 A.

<h3>What is electric current?</h3>

Electric current is the rate of flow of electric charge round a conductor.

To calculate the electric current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor, we use the formula below

Formula:

  • I = V/Rt........... Equation 1

Where:

  • I = Electric current passing through the 30 ohms resistor
  • V = Voltage
  • Rt = Total or effective resistance of the resistors.

From the question,

Given:

  • V = 100 volts
  • Rt = (30+20) ohms (since both resistors are connected in series)
  • Rt = 50 ohms

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • I = 100/50
  • I = 2 A

Hence, The current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor is 2 A.

ad-work [718]

The international system of units is the designated system of units used by scientist in every part of the world to keep data in the same form and measurements, this is to avoid confusion and the need to convert data when being shared. typically described in meters or kilometer over a time form usually seconds or hours.
