Answer:

A.) H = 58.6 m

B.) T = 6.92 s

C.) 345.12 m

D.) V = 22.13 m/s

E.) Ø = 32.1 degree

Explanation:

Given that the

initial speed U = 60.3 m/s

Angle Ø = 34.2 degree

A.) At maximum height, final velocity V is equal to zero.

Using the third equation of motion under gravity.

V^2 = U sin Ø^2 - 2gH

Substitute for U and g. Where g = 9.8 m/s^2

0 = (60.3 sin 34.2)^2 - 2 × 9.8 × H

1148.78 = 19.6 H

H = 1148.78/19.6

H = 58.6 m

B.) To Determine the total time in the air, let us use the formula

V = UsinØ - gt

At maximum height, V = 0

t = UsinØ/g

Total time T = 2t

Therefore, T = 2UsinØ/g

T = (2 × 60.3 × sin 34.2)/9.8

T = 67.79/9.8

T = 6.92 s

C.) To determine the total horizontal distance covered which is the range, we will use second equation of motion.

S = UcosØT - 1/2gt^2

Where S = range R

g = 0, since the range is not a vertical distance

T = total time

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

R = 60.3 cos 34.2 × 6.92

R = 345.12 m

D.) After 1.2 s firing,

V = UsinØ - gt

Where t = 1.2 s

Substitute into the formula

V = 60.3 × sin34.2 - 9.8 × 1.2

V = 33.89 - 11.76

V = 22.13 m/s

Therefore the speed of the projectile 1.20 s after firing is 22.13 m/s

E.) The direction will be determined by using the formula

t = VsinØ/ g

Cross multiply

VsinØ = gt

Make SinØ the subject of formula

SinØ = gt/V

SinØ = (9.8×1.2)/22.13

Sin Ø = 11.76/22.13

Sin Ø = 0.53

Ø = sin^-1( 0.53 )

Ø = 32.1 degree

If a satellite weighs 321 lb. on the earth's surface (R = 4,000 miles), how much does it weigh 12,000 miles above the surface? (
Sever21 [200]

The gravitational force between the Earth and the satellite (its "weight") is inversely proportional to the distance between the centers of both objects.

On the surface, their centers are separated by 1 Earth radius.

12,000 miles above the surface, they're separated by 4 Earth radiii.

(4/1) = 4

So after the move, the satellite's weight is (1/4²) = 1/16 of its surface weight.

(321 lb) / (16) = (20 and a hair) lb

The correct choice from the given list is " <em>>20 lb "</em> .

How many 1140 nm long molecules would you have to line up end to end to stretch a distance of 158 miles?
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

221754385964.9123

Explanation:

Convert miles to nanometer

1 mile = 1.6 km

1 km = 1×10³×10³×10³×10³ nm

1 mile = 1.6×10¹² nm

So,

158 miles = 158×1.6×10¹² = 252.8×10¹² nm

Length of each molecule = 1140 nm

Number of molecules = Total length / Length of each molecule

\text{Number of molecules}=\frac{252.8\times 10^{12}}{1140}\\\Rightarrow \text{Number of molecules}=221754385964.9123

There are 221754385964.9123 number of molecules in a stretch of 158 miles

A 5.4 g lead bullet moving at 261 m/s strikes a steel plate and stops. If all its kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Change in temperature ∆(tita) is 266.097°C

Explanation:

Ok kinectic energy = 1/2MV²

5.4 grams =( 5.4/1000) kilogram

Kinectic energy =( 1/2 )*(5.4/1000)*261²

Kinectic energy = 183.9267 joules

If kinetic energy = thermal energy

183.9267 joules = mc∆(tita)

Where ∆(tita) = change in temperature

And c = 128 J/kg

∆(tita) = 183.9267/((5.4/1000)*128)

∆(tita) = 266.097

∆(tita) = 266.097°C
