A woman throws a javelin 35 mph at an angle 30 degrees from the ground. Neglecting wind resistance or the height the javelin thr
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

35 mph

Explanation:

The key of this problem lies in understanding the way that projectile motion works as we are told to neglect the height of the javelin thrower and wind resistance.

When the javelin is thown, its velocity will have two components: a x component and a y component. The only acceleration that will interact with the javelin after it was thown will be the gravety, which has a -y direction. This means that the x component of the velocity will remain constant, and only the y component will be affected, and can be described with the constant acceleration motion properties.

When an object that moves in constant acceleration motion, the time neccesary for it to desaccelerate from a velocity v to 0, will be the same to accelerate the object from 0 to v. And the distance that the object will travel in both desaceleration and acceleration will be exactly the same.

So, when the javelin its thrown, it willgo up until its velocity in the y component reaches 0. Then it will go down, and it will reach reach the ground in the same amount of time it took to go up and, therefore, with the same velocity.

A person walks 9.0 km directly east and then turns left and heads directly north for 12.0 km. What is his displacement from the
Readme [11.4K]

Explanation:

Given that,

A person walks 9.0 km directly east and then turns left and heads directly north for 12.0 km.

We need to find his displacement from the starting position.

We know that,

Displacement = shortest path covered

D=\sqrt{9^2+12^2} \\\\D=15\ km

For direction,

\theta=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{d_y}{d_x})\\\\\theta=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{12}{9})\\\\= $$53.13^{\circ}

Hence, this is the required solution.

The normal boiling point of cyclohexane is 81.0 ℃. what is the vapor pressure of cyclohexane at 81.0 ℃?
Hitman42 [59]
The boiling point is defined as the temperature at which the pressure of the vapor of the liquid is equivalent to the external atmospheric pressure surrounding the liquid. Therefore, the boiling point of the liquid is dependent on the atmospheric pressure.

Based on this, the vapor pressure of cyclohexane at 81 degrees celcius will be equal to atmospheric pressure (based on barometric readings)<span />

A 1.5-kilogram cart initially moves at 2.0 meters
Anon25 [30]

             Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (speed at the end) minus (speed at the beginning.

The cart's acceleration is

                               (0 - 2 m/s) / (0.3 sec)

                           = ( -2 / 0.3 ) (m/s²)  =  -(6 and 2/3) m/s² .

Newton's second law of motion says

                             Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .

For this cart:      Force = (1.5 kg) x ( - 6-2/3 m/s²)

                                       = ( - 1.5 x 20/3 ) (kg-m/s²)

                                       =      - 10 newtons .

The force is negative because it acts opposite to the direction
in which the cart is moving, it causes a negative acceleration,
and it eventually stops the cart.
