Which describes an object in projectile motion? Check all that apply.

Physics

Elodia [21]3 years ago

Answer:

Gravity acts to pull the object down.

The object’s inertia carries it forward.

The path of the object is curved.

Explanation:

The motion of a projectile consists of two separate motions:

- A uniform motion along the horizontal direction, where the velocity is constant; since there are no forces along this direction, the velocity does not change, and so the object continues its motion for inertia --> so, the statement  "The object’s inertia carries it forward" is true.

- A uniformly accelerated motion along the vertical direction, with a constant downward acceleration (g=9.8 m/s^2, acceleration due to gravity). So, the vertical velocity changes, due to the presence of the gravity that acts to pull the object down.

- As a result of the combination of these two motions, the object follows a curved path (in particular, it is a parabolic path).

Find the emitted power per square meter of peak intensity for a 3000 k object that emits thermal radiation.
Aleksandr [31]
According to Stefan-Boltzmann Law, the thermal energy radiated by a radiator per second per unit area is proportional to the fourth power of the absolute temperature. It is given by;
    P/A = σ T⁴ j/m²s 
Where; P is the power, A is the area in square Meters, T is temperature in kelvin and σ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant, ( 5.67 × 10^-8 watt/m²K⁴)
Therefore;
Power/square meter = (5.67 × 10^-8) × (3000)⁴
                                 =  4.59 × 10^6 Watts/square meter

An asteroid is moving along a straight line. A force acts along the displacement of the asteroid and slows it down. The asteroid
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

a)

- 7.04\times10^{11} J

b)

5.03\times10^{5} N

Explanation:

a)

m = mass of the asteroid = 43000 kg

v_{o} = initial speed of asteroid = 7600 m/s

v = final speed of asteroid = 5000 m/s

W = Work done by the force on asteroid

Using work-change in kinetic energy theorem

W = (0.5) m (v^{2} - v_{o}^{2})\\W = (0.5) (43000) (5000^{2} - 7600^{2})\\W = - 7.04\times10^{11} J

b)

F = magnitude of force on asteroid

d = distance traveled by asteroid while it slows down = 1.4 x 10⁶ m

Work done by the force on the asteroid to slow it down is given as

W = - F d\\- 7.04\times10^{11} = - F (1.4\times10^{6})\\F = 5.03\times10^{5} N

The objective lens in a DVD player must move quickly to keep the laser beam focused on the disc's reflective layer. Why must thi
Zinaida [17]

Explanation:

The small mass of lens in a DVD player accounts for small inertia of the lens. Hence, even on application of force of small magnitude, the lens is rapidly accelerated. Moreover, the small mass of lens also accounts for lower resistance to change in its motion and therefore, again can be rapidly accelerated back and forth.
