Answer:

\displaystyle \vec{d}=

Explanation:

<u>Displacement Vector</u>

Suppose an object is located at a position  

\displaystyle P_1(x_1,y_1)

and then moves at another position at

\displaystyle P_2(x_2,y_2)

The displacement vector is directed from the first to the second position and can be found as

\displaystyle \vec{d}=

If the position is given as magnitude-angle data ( z , α), we can compute its rectangular components as

\displaystyle x=z\ cos\alpha

\displaystyle y=z\ sin\alpha

The question describes the situation where the initial point is the base of the mountain, where both components are zero

\displaystyle P_1(0,0)

The final point is given as a 520 m distance and a 32-degree angle, so  

\displaystyle x_2=520\ cos32^o= 440.99\ m

\displaystyle y_2=520\ sin32^o=275.6\ m

The displacement is

\displaystyle \vec{d}=

A cannonball is launched with initial velocity of magnitude v0 over a horizontal surface. At what minimum angle
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

A)   θmin= 76°.

Explanation:

Given that

Speed of cannonball = Vo

Lets take θ is the angle measure from horizontal

We know that

Range R

R=\dfrac{V_o^2sin2\theta }{g}

Height h

h=\dfrac{V_o^2sin^2\theta }{2g}

Given that h should be larger than R

         h > R

\dfrac{V_o^2sin^2\theta }{2g}>\dfrac{V_o^2sin2\theta }{g}

{sin^2\theta }>2{sin2\theta }

{sin^2\theta }>4{sin\theta\ cos\theta  }

{tan\theta }>4

        θ  >75.96°

So minimum angle should be 75.96° or 76°.

What is the velocity of an object with a kinetic energy of 800 J and a mass of 12 kg?
Elis [28]

K.E = 1/2 mv²

800 = 1/2 ×12 ×v²

800 =  6 v²

800 / 6  =  v²

=   133.4    =v²

√133.4  =   √v²

11.5   =  v²

I hope this answer is correct.

Which of the following is a TRUE statement about the differences between electromagnetic and mechanical waves?
Butoxors [25]

' D ' is the only correct statement on the list.


Electromagnetic waves are capable of traveling through

many substances, and they're also capable of traveling

through vacuum. Mechanical waves can't travel in vacuum.
