Mt. Asama, Japan, is an active volcano. In 2009, an eruption threw solid volcanic rocks that landed 1 km horizontally from the c

rater. If the volcanic rocks were launched at an angle of 40° with respect to the horizontal and landed 900 m below the crater, (a) what would be their initial velocity and (b) what is their time of flight?

Answer:

a) 69.3 m/s

b) 18.84 s

Explanation:

Let the initial velocity = u

The vertical and horizontal components of the velocity is given by uᵧ and uₓ respectively

uᵧ = u sin 40° = 0.6428 u

uₓ = u cos 40° = 0.766 u

We're given that the horizontal distance travelled by the projectile rock (Range) = 1 km = 1000 m

The range of a projectile motion is given as

R = uₓt

where t = total time of flight

1000 = 0.766 ut

ut = 1305.5

The vertical distance travelled by the projectile rocks,

y = uᵧ t - (1/2)gt²

y = - 900 m (900 m below the crater's level)

-900 = 0.6428 ut - 4.9t²

Recall, ut = 1305.5

-900 = 0.6428(1305.5) - 4.9 t²

4.9t² = 839.1754 + 900

4.9t² = 1739.1754

t = 18.84 s

Recall again, ut = 1305.5

u = 1305.5/18.84 = 69.3 m/s

Core
Home of atoms of hydrogen also the lightest element in the universe.
Radiative Zone
Outside the inner Core it radiates energy through the process of photon emission.
Convection Layer
Outer most Layer of the Core, it extends form a depth of 200,000 kilometres to the visible surface. Energy is created by Convection. This is where light is produced.
Photosphere
Surrounds the stars and is where light and heat radiate.
Chromosphere
Reddish gas layer outside of the photosphere I think it also works with the Corona.
Corona
Aura of Plasma that surrounds the Sun and other stars, it extends millions of kilometres and easily seen during a total eclipse.

The moon is smaller and more dense than the Earth, and has less extreme temperature changes.
Lerok [7]
<span>The moon is smaller and more dense than the Earth, and has less extreme temperature changes. The statement presented is True. In terms of temperature, since there is no atmosphere on the moon, then it has less extreme temperature changes. The moon can reach 253 Fahrenheit in the day and -387 Fahrenheit at night.</span>
