What force is most responsible for the path of an object during projectile motion?

1 answer:

7 0

The gravitational force.

In fact, the motion of the projectile is composed by two independent motions:
- on the horizontal direction, it is a uniform motion (with constant speed)
- on the vertical direction, it is a uniformly accelerated motion, where the vertical acceleration g is given by the gravity exerted by the Earth on the projectile.

For this reason, the composition of the two motions results in a parabolic trajectory.

20.0 Ω resistor and a 2.50 μF capacitor are connected in parallel with signal generator. The signal generator produces a sinusoi

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

0.15A

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

R=20.0 Ω

C= 2.50 μF

V= 3.00 V

f= 2.48×10^-3 Hz

Xc= 1/2πFc

Xc= 1/2×3.142 × 2.48×10^-3 × 2.5 ×10^-6

Xc= 25666824.1

Z= 1/√(1/R)^2 +(1/Xc)^2

Z= 1/√[(1/20)^2 +(1/25666824.1)^2]

Z= 1/√(2.5×10^-3) + (1.5×10^-15)

Z= 20 Ω

But

V=IZ

Where;

V= voltage

I= current

Z= impedance

I= V/Z

I= 3.00/20

I= 0.15A

A perceived increase in the volume of sound is best explained by ________.

tatiyna

Answer:

A. an increase in the height of the sound wave

Explanation:

Volume of the sound is measured by its intensity

So here we know that

intensity is directly depends on the square of the amplitude of the sound wave

so here as intensity depends on the loudness of the sound given as

$L = 10 Log(\frac{I}{I_o})$

so here as the loudness of sound will increase then the intensity will increase and hence the amplitude of the sound will also increase

So correct answer will be

A. an increase in the height of the sound wave

why did scientists using classical, newtonian physics have difficulty explaining the photoelectric effect

zzz [600]

The correct answer is :

According to classical electrodynamics, light energy is a wave that is absorbed by atoms in a manner similar to how an object absorbs radiant heat. So, the atoms of a metal would absorb more energy the brighter the light was. It would be feasible for an electron in a metal to break free from its atoms if it received enough energy from the incoming wave. The more energy absorbed, the more energetic the metal's released electrons would be. Additionally, no electrons could conceivably be ejected until each atom had enough light energy. Light intensity was far more important than light frequency.

In many respects, the photo-electric effect contradicted this strategy:

If the light was below a specific frequency, no matter how bright it was, no electrons were released. Increased light intensity increased the number of electrons that were released, but not their energy, if the light was above this frequency.
Regardless of how weak the light was, electrons were nearly immediately emitted from the metal.
Even though the intensity of the light was reduced, an increase in its frequency led to more energising electrons leaving the metal.

Find the magnitude of this<br> vector:

kvasek [131]

The magnitude of the vector is 34.092 N

<h3>What is resultant?</h3>

The resultant is the square root of sum of square of the vector component of x and y direction.

R =√ [(Nx)² +(Ny)²]

Given is the vector with horizontal length of the vector = -28.7 m and the vertical length of the vector = 18.4 m

The resultant will be

R =√ [(-28.7)² +(18.4)²]

R = 34.092 N

Thus, the magnitude of the vector is 34.092 N.

A girl coasts down a hill on a sled, reaching level ground at the bottom with a speed of 7.4 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic fri

Amanda [17]

Answer: 62.22 meters

Explanation:

Two solve this, we need to know first how the Sled interact with the snow. While the Sled runs over the snow, the snow opposes to it movement, this is call friction. Frictions creates is a force that goes against any movement and is caused by the interaction between surfaces.

Friction can be calculated using the following equation:

Friction's Force (Ff) = m*N

Where m is the Frictions coficient and N is call Normal, which is a force created by the contact between any weight and a surface. Because the sled is and the surface are totally horizontal, the Normal is equal to the Sled's Weight.

So for this case, we can calculate the Friction's Force:

Ff = 0.045 * 735 N

Ff = 33,07 N

This force will cause a negative acceleration the Sled causing it to slow down and finally stop. To know this accelaration we can use the following equation:

Force (F) = Mass (m) * Accelaration (a)

Looking for the accelaration:

Acceleration (a) = F / M

As a side note:

Mass (M) = F / a (1)

Where we know that F is equal to our Friction Force (Ff) and the Mass for the girl and the Sled can be obtained using the previous equation (1) like this

Girl and sled Mass (M) = 735 N / (9.81 m/s)

M = 74,92 Kg

This is posible, because the Girl and The Sled are aplying a Force on the ground equal to 735 N. The accelartion for their mass is the gravity

Now, with the mass we can found the Accelaration caused by friction:

Acceleration (a) = Ff / M

Accelaration (a) = 33,07 N / 74,92 Kg

a = 0,44 $m/s^{2}$

To know how far the Sled travel we can use the following equation:

$V_{f} ^{2} = V_{0} ^{2} + 2ax$

Where Vf is the Final Velocity, which is when the sled finally stops (Vf = 0), Vo is the Initial Speed of the Sled equal to 7.4 m/s and a is equal to the negative accelaration that causes the friction.

$(0)^{2} = (7.4 m/s)^{2} + 2(-0,44)x$

Searching for x:

$x = \frac{0 - (7.4 m/s)^{2} }{-0.88}$

$x = 62.22 meters$

The girls will run over the snow 62.22 meter until finally stopping
