First of all, let's write the equation of motions on both horizontal (x) and vertical (y) axis. It's a uniform motion on the x-axis, with constant speed v_x=30 m/s, and an accelerated motion on the y-axis, with initial speed v_y=20 m/s and acceleration g=9.81 m/s^2:
S_x(t)=v_xt
S_y(t)=v_y t- \frac{1}{2} gt^2
where the negative sign in front of g means the acceleration points towards negative direction of y-axis (downward).

To find the distance from the landing point, we should find first the time at which the projectile hits the ground. This can be found by requiring
S_y(t)=0
Therefore:
v_y t -  \frac{1}{2}gt^2=0
which has two solutions:
t=0 is the time of the beginning of the motion,
t= \frac{2 v_y}{g} = \frac{2\cdot 20 m/s}{9.81 m/s^2}=4.08 s is the time at which the projectile hits the ground.

Now, we can find the distance covered on the horizontal axis during this time, and this is the distance from launching to landing point:
S_x(4.08 s)=v_x t=(30 m/s)(4.08 s)=122.4 m

A string, stretched between two fixed posts, forms standing-wave resonances at 325 Hz and 390 Hz. What is the largest possible v
Pavel [41]

Answer:

65

Explanation:

The resonant frequencies for a fixed string is given by the formula  nv/(2L).  

Where n is the multiple .

v is speed in m/s .

The difference between any two resonant frequencies is given by v/(2L)= fn+1 – fn

fundamental frequency means n=1

i.e  fn+1 – fn = 390 -325

                      =  65

How much heat is needed to melt 13.74 kg of silver that is initially at 20°C?
salantis [7]

Answer:

Q = 4.63 \times 10^6 J

Explanation:

As we know that melting point of silver is

T = 961.8 degree C

Latent heat of fusion of silver is given as

L = 111 kJ/kg

specific heat capacity of silver is given as

s = 240 J/kg C

now we will have

Q = ms\Delta T + mL

\Delta T = 961.8 - 20

\Delta T = 941.8 degree C

now from above equation

Q = (13.74)(240)(941.8) + (13.74)(111 \times 10^3)

Q = 3.1 \times 10^6 + 1.53 \times 10^6

Q = 4.63 \times 10^6 J
