Answer:

D. The hang time of a projectile is greatest for a vertical launch.

Explanation:

As we know that range of projectile is given by the formula

$R = \frac{v^2sin(2\theta)}{g}$

so here as we increase the angle till 45 degree then the range will decrease but if we increase the angle more than 45 degree then the range will start decreasing

Also we know that time of flight is given by the formula

$T = \frac{2vsin\theta}{g}$

since it depends on the vertical component of the motion so we can say that hang time can be determine by vertical components of the motion

So maximum hang time is possible only when angle of projection is 90 degree

so correct answer will be

D. The hang time of a projectile is greatest for a vertical launch.

Answer:

B. Kinetic energy of the system is partially used up in the deformation of the vehicles.

Explanation:

In an inelastic collision, momentum is conserved, but kinetic energy is not. Kinetic energy is lost as heat or lost in the deformation of the objects.

C. The Densities are equal.

<h3>What is density?</h3>

Density is mass per unit volume or mass of a unit volume of a material substance.

If m1, V1 and D1 = mass, volume and density respectively of ball C

m2, V2 and D2 = mass, volume and density respectively of ball D

According to the Question ,

$V_{1} = 3V_{2} , m_{2} = \frac{1}{3} (m_{1} ) \\ \\= m_{1} = 3m_{2}$

Therefore,

$\frac{D_{1} }{D_{2} } = (\frac{m_{1} }{V_{1} } )* (\frac{m_{2} }{V_{2} } )\\ \\= (\frac{3m_{2} }{3V_{2} })*(\frac{V_{2} }{m_{2} }) \\\\= 1$

Hence, D1 = D2

A 0.45 kg soccer ball changes its velocity by 20.0 m/s due to a force applied to it in 0.10 seconds. What force was necessary fo

Sonja [21]

For this problem, we will need the famous equation F=ma, as detailed by Isaac Newton.

F=mass x acceleration, where Force is in Newtons.

20 m/s represents the quantity of speed change, but to use in the equation, we need acceleration, not speed. Acceleration is the velocity change over a unit time, so changing 20 m/s in 0.1 seconds means that the acceleration was 200 m/s^2.

Plugging in all your numbers, you find:

F=(0.45 kg)(200 m/s^2) = 90 N of force.

Suppose students experiment with the tube and a variety of darts. Some darts have higher masses than others but are the same aer

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The dart with the small mass will travel the farthest distance.

Explanation:

Acceleration is proportional to force times mass, and inertia is proportional to mass. Inertia is the reluctance of a moving body to stop, and a stationary body to start moving (inertia increses with mass). Assuming they both have the same aerodynamic design, and that they are both launched with the same force applied for the same time duration, the dart with less small mass will accelerate faster than the big mass dart. From this we can see that the small dart will have covered a longer distance before the effect of the force stops, when compared to the more massive dart.
