a cheerleader throws herself into the air with a velocity of 12 m/s at an angle of 75 degrees above the horizontal. what are the

x- and y components of her velocity (show work)
Physics

NISA [10]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Vx = 3.10 [m/s]

Vy = 11.59 [m/s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must decompose the velocity vector by means of the angle on the horizontal.

v = 12 [m/s]

Vx = 12*cos (75) = 3.10 [m/s]

Vy = 12*sin (75) = 11.59 [m/s]

In a Rutherford scattering experiment a target nucleus has a diameter of 1.34×10-14 m. The incoming α particle has a mass of 6.6
Rasek [7]

Answer:

E = 2.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ J

Explanation:

given,

diameter = 1.33 x 10⁻¹⁴ m

mass = 6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

wavelength is equal to diameter

de broglie wavelength equal to diameter

         \lambda = \dfrac{h}{mv}

         1.33 \times 10^{-14}= \dfrac{6.626 \times 10^{-34}}{6.64 \times 10^{-27}\times v}

         v= \dfrac{6.626 \times 10^{-34}}{6.64 \times 10^{-27}\times 1.33 \times 10^{-14}}

              v = 7.5 x 10⁶ m/s

Kinetic energy is equal to

     E = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

     E = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 6.64 \times 10^{-27}\times (7.5\times 10^6)^2

            E = 2.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ J

I will mark you as brainliest. if you answer my question
Shalnov [3]

First, let's list everything we have...

a = 1.83 m/s^2

F = 1870 N (converted from kN to N)

vi = 0 m/s (it says started from rest, therefore velocity starts at 0)

t = 16 s

1). "Force acting on the car" is a bit ambiguous because there are many forces. But I'm going to assume that they are looking for just a basic implementation of force equation:

F=ma

where:

F = force

m = mass

a = acceleration

2). I recommend memorizing your equations of motion, because once you know them this part is also just as easy:

v_f=v_i+at

where:

vf = final velocity

vi = initial velocity

a = acceleration

t = time

The state in which a star's gravitational collapse is balanced between gravity pushing inward and gas pressure pushing outward i
Andrew [12]
The relation between temperature and pressure is called the "equation of state of the gas". or "Hydrostatic equilibrium in ordinary star". Take for example a balloon, it will have a larger spherical shape, if the pressure inside exerted by the gas on a wall of a balloon balance the inward force exerted by the outside atmospheric pressure.  In a dying star which is being compressed by gravity, the gas is being squeezed so the molecules is moving rapidly, resulting to a very high temperature, and this provide a balance that counteract or balances the compressive force of gravity. The very high temperature inside the star is needed to balance the force of gravity, and it is provide by "nuclear fusion energy" or else the star would collapse under the force of gravity. Depending on the size or mass of the star, it will either become, a "neutron star" or a "black hole".

A ball with a mass of 0.5 kilograms is lifted to a height of 2.0 meters and dropped. It bounces back to a height of 1.8 meters.
Degger [83]
Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly.

To compute for the change in potential energy, the equation would be:

delta PE =  mg*delta h
delta PE = 0.5*9.81*(2-1.8)
delta Pe = 0.98 J

The potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.

A quantum-mechanical system initially in its ground level absorbs a photon and ends up in the first excited state. The system th
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

(b) a hydrogen atom

Explanation:

Wavelength is inversely proportional to energy. So we have to find the system for which the second photon has smaller energy than the first one.

For the harmonic oscillator, the energy level spacing remains the same as the quantum number increases.

For the hydrogen atom, the energy level spacing decreases as the quantum number increases.

For the particle in a box, the energy level spacing increases as the quantum number increases.
