Answer:

When heat is added to a substance, the molecules and atoms vibrate faster. As atoms vibrate faster, the space between atoms increases. The motion and spacing of the particles determines the state of matter of the substance. ... Solids, liquids and gases all expand when heat is added.

You launch a cannonball at an angle of 35° and an initial velocity of 36 m/s (assume y = y₁=

Answer:

Approximately $4.2\; {\rm s}$ (assuming that the projectile was launched at angle of $35^{\circ}$ above the horizon.)

Explanation:

Initial vertical component of velocity:

$\begin{aligned}v_{y} &= v\, \sin(35^{\circ}) \\ &= (36\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}})\, (\sin(35^{\circ})) \\ &\approx 20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}$ .

The question assumed that there is no drag on this projectile. Additionally, the altitude of this projectile just before landing $y_{1}$ is the same as the altitude $y_{0}$ at which this projectile was launched: $y_{0} = y_{1}$ .

Hence, the initial vertical velocity of this projectile would be the exact opposite of the vertical velocity of this projectile right before landing. Since the initial vertical velocity is $20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}$ (upwards,) the vertical velocity right before landing would be $(-20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}})$ (downwards.) The change in vertical velocity is:

$\begin{aligned}\Delta v_{y} &= (-20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) - (20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) \\ &= -41.2\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}$ .

Since there is no drag on this projectile, the vertical acceleration of this projectile would be $g$ . In other words, $a = g = -9.81\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}}$ .

Hence, the time it takes to achieve a (vertical) velocity change of $\Delta v_{y}$ would be:

$\begin{aligned} t &= \frac{\Delta v_{y}}{a_{y}} \\ &= \frac{-41.2\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}}{-9.81\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}}} \\ &\approx 4.2\; {\rm s} \end{aligned}$ .
