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.

C. The range of a projectile increases with an increase in the angle of launch.

How does an electromagnet become permanent
love history [14]
<span>A moving electrical charge produces a magnetic field and a moving magnetic field produces an electrical field. An electromagnet works by coiling a bunch of wire and spinning a couple of magnets around that wire at high speeds. When this occurs the magnets induce an electric current in the wire and hence the electricity production. Once the magnets stop spinning, the induced electrical field dissipates and the current stops flowing through the wire.

A 2kg object initially going 4m/s to the right is later going 8m/s. whats the change in velocity?
Nezavi [6.7K]

The change in velocity is +4 m/s to the right (or -4 m/s to the left).

The object's mass is irrelevant.

Answer:

it tells you that the speed increases until about 20 seconds then keeps a steady pace for 20 seconds then the speed drops and stops at 55 seconds in the process.

A truck on a straight road starts from rest, accelerating at 2.00 m/s2 until it reaches a speed of 20.0 m/s. Then the truck trav
aniked [119]
<span>You can use the equation
V_xf = V_xi + a_x(t)

V_xf = 20.0m/s
V_xi = 0m/s
ax = 2.0 t

Thus, solve for t and get 10seconds and then take 5 seconds to break after 20 seconds of driving so for

a) 10 + 20 + 5 = 35 seconds

</span><span>for part b)
You can use the formula
Delta x/Delta t = average velocity
 
Need to find xf, knowing xi = 0

Thus, use the formula
 x_f = x_i + V_xi(t) + (1/2)a_x(t)^(2)
x_f = 0 + 0(10) + (1/2)(2.0)(10)^(2)
 x_f = 100m
 
so for the first 10 seconds the truck traveled 100ms At a speed of 20m/s

20m/s = xm/20s 20*20 = x
x = 400
 
thus we have 100+400 = 500m then it slows down from 500m to x_f
 
thus I use the equation
x_f = x_i + (1/2)(V_xf + V_xi)t
x_f = 500 + (1/2)(0 + 20)(5) x_f = 500 + 50
x_f = 550
 
therefore the total distance traveled is 550m
</span>
<span>to calculate average velocity
550/35 = 16m/s

thus V_xavg = 16m/s</span>
