Answer:

35 m

0.56 m/s west

Explanation:

A) Total distance is the length of the path taken.

30 m + 5 m = 35 m

B) Velocity is displacement over time. Displacement is the difference between the final position and the initial position.

If west is -x, and east is +x, then:

Δx = -30 m + 5 m

Δx = -25 m

v = Δx / t

v = -25 m / 45 s

v = -0.56 m/s

v = 0.56 m/s west

2. Two projectiles thrown from the same point at angles 0,=60° and 02=30° with the horizontal,

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

The maximum height (h) of a projectile with an initial velocity of u, acceleration due to gravity g and at an angle θ with the horizontal is given as:

$h=\frac{u^2sin^2\theta}{2g}$

Given that the two projectile has the same height.

$For\ the\ first\ projectile\ with\ an\ angle\ \60^0 \ with\ the\ horizontal\ and initial\ velocity\ u_1:\\\\h=\frac{u_1^2sin^260}{2g} =\frac{0.75u_1^2}{2g} \\\\For\ the\ second\ projectile\ with\ an\ angle\ \30 \ with\ the\ horizontal\ and initial\ velocity\ u_2:\\\\h=\frac{u_2^2sin^230}{2g} =\frac{0.25u_2^2}{2g}\\\\\frac{0.25u_2^2}{2g}=\frac{0.75u_1^2}{2g}\\\\0.25u_2^2=0.75u_1^2\\\\\frac{u_1^2}{u_2^2} =\frac{0.25}{0.75} \\\\\frac{u_1^2}{u_2^2}=\frac{1}{3} \\$ $\\\frac{u_1}{u_2}=\sqrt\frac{1}{3}$

Look at the image of a salad with chicken on a counter top .in which direction is the thermal energy moving?

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Well,

Explanation:

In this image, the thermal energy could be going both in an upwards and downwards direction. The chicken passes thermal energy to the salad under it. But at the same time, it is releasing smoke upwards, meaning it is also releasing thermal energy upwards.

Two men pull on a 31-kg box with forces 8.3 N and 6.6 N in opposite directions.

kykrilka [37]

The resultant acceleration of the box is 0.055 m/s² in the direction of the greater force.

The given parameters:

Mass of the box, m = 31 kg
Two applied forces, = 8.3 N and 6.6 N

<h3>Resultant force on the box</h3>

The resultant force on the box is calculated as follows;

$F_{net} = F_1 - F_2\\\\F_{net} = 8.3 \ N - \ 6.6 \ N\\\\F_{net} = 1.7 \ N$

<h3>Resultant acceleration of the box</h3>

The resultant acceleration of the box is calculated as follows;

$F = ma\\\\a = \frac{F}{m} \\\\a = \frac{1.7}{31} \\\\a = 0.055 \ m/s^2$

Thus, the resultant acceleration of the box is 0.055 m/s² in the direction of the greater force.
