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.

How does increasing energy affect the amplitude of a wave?

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The amount of energy carried by a wave is related to the amplitude of the wave

Explanation:

A high energy wave is characterized by a high amplitude; a low energy wave is characterized by a low amplitude. The energy imparted to a pulse will only affect the amplitude of that pulse.

You toss a conductive open ring of diameter d = 1.75 cm up in the air. The ring is flipping around a horizontal axis at a rate o

Mama L [17]

Answer:

The maximum emf induced in the ring

= (2.882 × 10⁻⁷) V

Explanation:

According to the law of electromagnetic induction, the emf induced in the ring is given by

E = N BA w sin wt

The maximum emf induced is

E = N BA w

B = 30.5 μT = (30.5 × 10⁻⁶) T

A = (πD²/4)

D = 1.75 cm = 0.0175 m

A = (π×0.0175²/4) = 0.000240625 m²

Nw = 2π × 6.25 = 39.29 rad/s

E = 30.5 × 10⁻⁶ × 0.000240625 × 39.29

E = (2.882 × 10⁻⁷) V

Hope this Helps!!!

Imagine a small child whose legs are half as long as her parent’s legs. If her parent can walk at maximum speed V, at what maxim

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

$\boxed{v=\frac {V}{\sqrt {2}}}$

Explanation:

We know that speed is given by dividing distance by time or multiplying length and frequency. The speed of the father will be given by Lf where L is the length of the father’s leg ad f is the frequency.

We know that frequency of simple pendulum follows that $f=\frac {1}{2\pi} \sqrt {\frac {g}{l}}$

Now, the speed of the father will be $V=Lf= L\times (\frac {1}{2\pi} \sqrt {\frac {g}{l}})$ while for the child the speed will be $v=\frac {L}{2}\times (\frac {1}{2\pi} \sqrt {\frac {g}{0.5l}})$

The ratio of the father’s speed to the child’s speed will be

$\frac {V}{v}=\frac {\frac {L}{2}\times (\frac {1}{2\pi} \sqrt {\frac {g}{0.5l}})}{ L\times (\frac {1}{2\pi} \sqrt {\frac {g}{l}})}\\\frac {V}{v}=\frac {\sqrt {2}}{2}\\\boxed{v=\frac {V}{\sqrt {2}}}$

A pendulum is swinging back and forth with a period of 2.0 seconds here on Earth. This pendulum is then brought to the Moon. Wha

LenKa [72]

Answer: The period of the pendulum will increase. Because of less gravity

Explanation:

Since the force of gravity is less on the Moon, the pendulum would swing slower at the same length and angle and its frequency would be less. Hence more time period will be experienced by the pendulum. On the moon, the acceleration due to gravity g is less when compared to that of the earth.
