A child uses a rubber band to launch a bottle cap at an angle of 37.0° above the horizontal. The cap travels a horizontal distan
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Initial velocity will be 1.356 m/sec      

Explanation:

Let the initial speed = u

Angle at which rubber band is launched = 37°

Horizontal component of initial velocity u_x=ucos\Theta =ucos37^{\circ}=0.7986u

Time is given as t = 1.20 sec

Distance in horizontal direction = 1.30 m

We know that distance = speed × time

So time t=\frac{distance}{speed}

1.20=\frac{1.3}{0.7986u}

u=1.356m/sec

So initial velocity will be 1.356 m/sec

A 6.60-kg block slides with an initial speed of 1.56 m/s up a ramp inclined at an angle of 28.4° with the horizontal. The coeffi
Vlad [161]

Answer:

The distance travel by block before coming to rest is 0.122 m

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of block m = 6.60 kg

Initial speed of block v _{i} = 1.56 \frac{m}{s}

Final speed of block v_{f} = 0 \frac{m}{s}

Coefficient of kinetic friction \mu _{k} = 0.62

Ramp inclined at angle \theta = 28.4°

Using conservation of energy,

Work done by frictional force is equal to change in energy,

  \mu _{k} mgd \cos 28.4 =  \Delta K - \Delta U

Where \Delta U = mg d\sin 28.4

\mu _{k} mgd \cos 28.4 =  \frac{1}{2}mv_{i} ^{2} - mgd\sin 28.4

\mu _{k} mgd \cos 28.4 +mgd\sin 28.4  =  \frac{1}{2}mv_{i} ^{2}

d(6.60 \times 9.8 \times 0.62 \times 0.879 + 6.60 \times 9.8 \times 0.475) = \frac{1}{2} \times 6.60 \times (1.56)^{2}

 d = 0.122 m

Therefore, the distance travel by block before coming to rest is 0.122 m

Solid has vibrating molecules that barely move to keep it's shape

liquid moves at an average speed and keeps it's volume but not it's shape

gases move quickly and all over the place so they don't have a shape or volume

plasma is the quickest moving and is like a gas

The index of refraction of a transparent substance is 1.7, and the speed of light in air is 3.00 · 108 s. Calculate the speed of
Natalija [7]
Given the index of refraction, n and speed of light in the vacuum, c, we can solve for the speed of light in the transparent substance by the equation below.
                                                n = c / v
where v is our unknown.
Substituting the known values,
                                            1.7 = (3 x 10^8 m/s) / v
The value of v is equal to 1.76 x 10^8 m/s.

High rate of evaporation in a water cycle can most likely cause
scoray [572]
Answer: d. thunderstorms
The option <span>blizzards can be excluded as it is clearly not related to the evaporation. Floods can happen if the condensation rate high, not evaporation. Sometimes the cloud that carries water is just blown up by the wind so the evaporation does not happen in that place.
Thunderstorms happen more in summer because the rate of evaporation and condensation is increased.</span>
