A car with a mass of 1100kg is moving in a circular curve at a uniform velocity of 15m/s

Dmitrij [34]

Centripetal force = (mv^2)/r
so r = (mv^2)/ force = 246500 / 1100 = 224 m

Arocket launches at an angle of 33.6 degrees from the horizontal at a

babymother [125]

Answer:

Y component = 32.37

Explanation:

Given:

Angle of projection of the rocket is, $\theta=33.6$

Initial velocity of the rocket is, $u=58.5$

A vector at an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal can be resolved into mutually perpendicular components; one along the horizontal direction and the other along the vertical direction.

If a vector 'A' makes angle $\theta$ with the horizontal, then the horizontal and vertical components are given as:

$A_x=A\cos \theta(\textrm{Horizontal or X component})\\A_y=A\sin \theta(\textrm{Vertical or Y component})$

Here, as the velocity is a vector quantity and makes an angle of 33.6 with the horizontal, its Y component is given as:

$u_y=u\sin \theta$

Plug in the given values and solve for $u_y$ . This gives,

$u_y=(58.5)(\sin 33.6)\\u_y=58.5\times 0.55339\\u_y=32.373\approx32.37(\textrm{Rounded to two decimal places})$

Therefore, the Y component of initial velocity is 32.37.

A ski jumper travels down a slope and

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

304.86 metres

Explanation:

The x and y cordinates are $dcos\theta$ and $dsin\theta$ respectively

The horizontal distance travelled, $x=v_{ox}t=dcos\theta$

Making t the subject, $t=\frac{dcos\theta}{v_{ox}}$

Since $y=0.5gt^2=dsin\theta$ , we substitute t with the above and obtain

$0.5g(\frac{dcos\theta}{v_{ox}})^2=dsin\theta$

Making d the subject we obtain

$d=\frac{2v_{ox}^2sin\theta}{gcos^2\theta}$

$d=\frac{2*30^2sin48}{9.8cos^248}$

d=304.8584

d=304.86m

How are light waves used to bring far away objects into view and how does the eye translate them?

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

When focused light is projected onto the retina, it stimulates the rods and cones. The retina then sends nerve signals are sent through the back of the eye to the optic nerve. The optic nerve carries these signals to the brain, which interprets them as visual images.
