Hi there!
Recall Newton's Second Law:
∑F = Net force (N)
m = mass (kg)
a = acceleration (m/s²)
We are already given the mass and acceleration, so we can plug these values into the equation:
∑F = 1600 · 4.5 = 7200 N
Answer:
H = 1/2 g t^2 where t is time to fall a height H
H = 1/8 g T^2 where T is total time in air (2 t = T)
R = V T cos θ horizontal range
3/4 g T^2 = V T cos θ 6 H = R given in problem
cos θ = 3 g T / (4 V) (I)
Now t = V sin θ / g time for projectile to fall from max height
T = 2 V sin θ / g
T / V = 2 sin θ / g
cos θ = 3 g / 4 (T / V) from (I)
cos θ = 3 g / 4 * 2 sin V / g = 6 / 4 sin θ
tan θ = 2/3
θ = 33.7 deg
As a check- let V = 100 m/s
Vx = 100 cos 33.7 = 83,2
Vy = 100 sin 33,7 = 55.5
T = 2 * 55.5 / 9.8 = 11.3 sec
H = 1/2 * 9.8 * (11.3 / 2)^2 = 156
R = 83.2 * 11.3 = 932
R / H = 932 / 156 = 5.97 6 within rounding
The strength of chemical bonds would be the best answer to this question. Hardness is indirectly related to the strength of chemical bonds. Hardness is the resistance from the destruction of an object itself from a material. Hardness does not need to strength of chemical bonds in order to have this resistance.
