How to explain horizontal in words

Physics
1 answer:
Fittoniya [83]3 years ago
7 0

In astronomy and geography, a direction or plane is said to be horizontal if it is perpendicular to the vertical direction. In mathematics, anything parallel to the horizon is called horizontal. Because vertical is the opposite of horizontal, anything that makes a 90-degree angle (right angle) with the horizontal or the horizon is called vertical. So, the horizontal line is one that runs across from left to right.

A golf ball is hit so that it leaves the club face at a velocity of 45m/s at an angle of 40° to the horizontal. by ignoring the
tatuchka [14]

Answer:a)45cos40 b)45sin40 c) 2.95 d)102

Explanation:

a) v_{x} = 45 cos40

b) v_{y}=45sin40

c) Since air resistance is negligible, the only force acting on the golf ball is gravity. Thus, its vertical acceleration is -<em>g</em>. We know the final velocity must be 0 m/s, because this will be when the golf ball reaches the maximum height and starts to change direction (it falls back to the ground). We also know initial velocity in the vertical direction (see part b). Thus, we can use this equation: v_{f} = v_{i} + at.

0 m/s = 45sin40 + (-9.8m/s^2)t\\t = 2.95s

d) The horizontal distance traveled is dependent on (1) how long the ball is in the air and (2) what the horizontal velocity is. (1) was found in part c, and (2) was found in part a.

x=vt\\x=45cos40(2.95) =102m

Car A (mass 1100 kg) is stopped at a traffic light when it is rear­ended by car B(mass 1400 kg). Both cars then slide with locke
viva [34]

Answer:

Part a)

v_a = 3.94 m/s

Part b)

v_b = 3.35 m/s

Part C)

v_b = 6.44 m/s

Part d)

Due to large magnitude of friction between road and the car the momentum conservation may not be valid here as momentum conservation is valid only when external force on the system is zero.

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that car A moves by distance 6.1 m after collision under the frictional force

so the deceleration due to friction is given as

a = -\frac{F_f}{m}

a = -\frac{\mu mg}{m}

a = - \mu g

now we will have

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2ad

0 - v_i^2 = 2(-\mu g)(6.1)

v_a = \sqrt{(2(0.13)(9.81)(6.1)}

v_a = 3.94 m/s

Part b)

Similarly for car B the distance of stop is given as 4.4 m

so we will have

v_b = \sqrt{2(0.13)(9.81)(4.4)}

v_b = 3.35 m/s

Part C)

By momentum conservation we will have

m_1v_{1i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

1400 v_b = 1100(3.94) + 1400(3.35)

v_b = 6.44 m/s

Part d)

Due to large magnitude of friction between road and the car the momentum conservation may not be valid here as momentum conservation is valid only when external force on the system is zero.

A constant force of 45 N directed at angle θ to the horizontal pulls a crate of weight 100 N from one end of a room to another a
Rasek [7]

Answer:

W=173.48J

Explanation:

information we know:

Total force: F=45N

Weight: w=100N

distance: 4m

vertical component of the force: F_{y}=12N

-------------

In this case we need the formulas to calculate the components of the force (because to calculate the work we need the horizontal component of the force).

horizontal component: F_{x}=Fcos\theta

vertical component: F_{y}=Fsen\theta

but from the given information we know that F_{y}=12N

so, equation these two F_{y}=Fsen\theta and F_{y}=12N

Fsen\theta =12N

and we know the force F=45N, thus:

45sen\theta=12

now we clear for \theta

sen\theta =12/45\\\theta=sin^{-1}(12/45)\\\theta =15.466

the angle to the horizontal is 15.466°, with this information we can calculate the horizontal component of the force:

F_{x}=Fcos\theta

F_{x}=45cos(15.466)\\F_{x}=43.37N

whith this horizontal component we calculate the work to move the crate a distance of 4 m:

W=F_{x}*D\\W=(43.37N)(4m)\\W=173.48J

the work done is W=173.48J

Energy can be changed from one form to another. Which terms can be used to describe these changes? Select all that apply.
aliya0001 [1]

Energy is the capacity to do work. Energy exists in various forms in the entire universe.

It  may be light,sound,electric,magnetic,kinetic,potential,thermal energy etc.

As per the law of conservation of energy, it is neither created not destroyed. It can change from one form to another form.The total energy of the universe is always constant.

The process in which energy will change from one form to another form is called energy conversion.

There is also another terminology for energy conversion called energy transformation.

Energy transference is the process in which energy will be transferred from one body to another body.

Hence the correct answer to this question will be conversion and transformation
