The projectile launcher shown below will give the object on the right an initial horizontal speed of 5.9 m/s. While the other ob
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

104.3 cm  or 179.7

Explanation:

First find time that it takes for the object to hit the ground

\sqrt{(2H)/g}  ->   \sqrt{(2 x 179)/ 9.8} = 6.04s\\*

Then find xf of projectile xf= 5.9(6.04) = 37.7\\\\

not 100% sure if the projectile is going away from the object or towards it but you either do 142- 37.7   or    142+37.7  

hope that helps

How do you find the speed of an object given its mass and kinetic energy (what is the formula)?
madam [21]
   v  =   √ { 2*(KE) ] / m } ; 

Now, plug in the known values for "KE" ["kinetic energy"] and "m" ["mass"] ; 
        
and solve for "v".

______________________________________________________
Explanation:
_____________________________________________________
The formula is:  KE = (½) * (m) * (v²) ;
_____________________________________
  
"Kinetic energy" = (½) * (mass) * (velocity , "squared")
________________________________________________
Note:  Velocity is similar to speed, in that velocity means "speed and direction";  however, if you "square" a negative number, you will get a "positive"; since:  a "negative" multiplied by a "negative" equals a "positive".
____________________________________________
So, we have the formula:
___________________________________
KE = (½) * (m) * (v²) ;  to solve for "(v)" ; velocity, which is very similar to                                          the "speed"; 
___________________________________________________
we arrange the formula ;
__________________________________________________
(KE) = (½) * (m) * (v²) ;  ↔  (½)*(m)* (v²) = (KE) ; 
___________________________________________________

→ We have:  (½)*(m)* (v²) = (KE)  ; we isolate, "m" (mass) on one side of the equation:
______________________________________________________
   
→ We divide each side of the equation by: "[(½)* (m)]" ; 
___________________________________________________
    
           →   [ (½)*(m)*(v²) ] /  [(½)* (m)]  = (KE) / [(½)* (m)]<span> ;
</span>______________________________________________________
 to get: 
______________________________________________________
                           →   v²     =   (KE) / [(½)* (m)]
                     
                           →   v²     = 2 KE / m
_______________________________________________________
Take the "square root" of each side of the equation ;
_______________________________________________________
                          →  √ (v²)  =  √ { 2*(KE) ] / m }
________________________________________________________

                          →     v  =   √ { 2*(KE) ] / m } ; 

Now, plug in the known values for "KE" ["kinetic energy"] and "m" ["mass"]; 
       
and solve for "v".

I just need number 2

We will apply the conservation of linear momentum to answer this question.

Whenever there is an interaction between any number of objects, the total momentum before is the same as the total momentum after. For simplicity's sake we mostly use this equation to keep track of the momenta of two objects before and after a collision:

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂'

Note that v₁ and v₁' is the velocity of m₁ before and after the collision.

Let's choose m₁ and v₁ to represent the bullet's mass and velocity.

m₂ and v₂ represents the wood block's mass and velocity.

The bullet and wood will stick together after the collision, so their final velocities will be the same. v₁' = v₂'. We can simplify the equation by replacing these terms with a single term v'

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v' + m₂v'

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁+m₂)v'

Let's assume the wood block is initially at rest, so v₂ is 0. We can use this to further simplify the equation.

m₁v₁ = (m₁+m₂)v'

Here are the given values:

m₁ = 0.005kg

v₁ = 500m/s

m₂ = 5kg

Plug in the values and solve for v'

0.005×500 = (0.005+5)v'

v' = 0.4995m/s

v' ≅ 0.5m/s

While riding in a hot air balloon, which is steadily decreasing at a speed of 1.14 m/s, you accidentally drop your cell phone. H
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

The distance covered by the balloon is 47.52 meters.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the balloon, u = 1.14 m/

Let us assumed we need to find the distance covered by the balloon after t = 3 second. Let d is the distance covered by the balloon. It can be given by :

d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Here, a = g

d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

d=1.14\times 3+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times (3)^2

d = 47.52 meters

So, the distance covered by the balloon is 47.52 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
