Which statement about projectile motion is true?

Physics
2 answers:
Shalnov [3]3 years ago
4 0

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.

An electric dipole consisting of charges of magnitude 1.70 nC separated by 6.80 μm is in an electric field of strength 1160 N/C.
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

p = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ C m     and  ΔU = 2.7 10 -11 J

Explanation:

The dipole moment of a dipole is the product of charges by distance

                        p = 2 a q

With 2a the distance between the charges and the magnitude of the charges

                        p = 1.7 10⁻⁹ 6.8 10⁻⁶

                        p = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ C m

 

The potential energie dipole  is described by the expression

                       U = - p E cos θ

Where θ is the angle between the dipole and the electric field, the zero value of the potential energy is located for when the dipole is perpendicular to the electric field line

Orientation parallel to the field

                      θ = 0º

                      U = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ 1160 cos 0

                      U1 = 1.35 10⁻¹¹ J

Antiparallel orientation

                       θ = 180º

                      cos 180 = -1

                      U2 = -1.35 10⁻¹¹ J

The difference in energy between these two configurations is the subtraction of the energies

                         ΔU = | U1 -U2 |

                         ΔU = 1.35 10-11 - (-1.35 10-11)

                         ΔU = 2.7 10 -11 J

Two objects with masses m and 3m are connected by a compressed spring so that the energy stored in the spring is 375 joules. If
cluponka [151]

Answer:

281.25 J

Explanation:

We are told that the two objects with masses m and 3m.

Also that energy stored in the spring is 375 joules.

Now, initially the centre of mass of the system took place at rest, it means v1 = v and v2 = v/3

Thus, from principle of conservation of energy, we have;

½mv² + ½(3m)(v/3)² = 375J

(m + 3m/9)½v² = 375

(4/3)m × ½v² = 375

Multiply both sides by ¾ to get;

½mv² = 375 × ¾

½mv² = 281.25 J

Therefore, energy of lighter body is 281.25 J

Which of the following statements does NOT accurately describe the Berlin Airlift?
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

The Berlin Airlift is best described as the aircraft used to delivered needed food and supplies to the city of Berlin through the air because all other routes were blocked by the Soviet Union.

<h3>What is Berlin Airlift?</h3>

The Berlin airlift was a 1940s military operation that supplied West Berlin with food and other vital goods by air after the Soviet Union blockaded the city.

Thus, the Berlin Airlift is best described as the aircraft used to delivered needed food and supplies to the city of Berlin through the air because all other routes were blocked by the Soviet Union.

The stopping sight distance for a car traveling at 50 mph is 461 ft (including both perception-reaction distance and braking dis
Ivan

Answer:

2.08 s

Explanation:

We are given that

Speed,v=50mph=73.3ft/s

1 mile=5280 feet

1 hour=3600 s

Distance,d=461 ft

t=2.5 s

v'=60 mph=88 ft/s

We have to find the perception reaction time.

Perception reaction distance=d_p=vt=73.3\ti es 2.5=183.25 feet

d_p=d'_p

d'_p=v't

t'=\frac{183.25}{88}=2.08 s
