Spitting cobras can defend themselves by squeezing muscles around their venom glands to squirt venom at an attacker. Suppose a s

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer: 1.289 m

Explanation:

The path the cobra's venom follows since it is spitted until it hits the ground, is described by a parabola. Hence, the equations for parabolic motion (which has two components) can be applied to solve this problem:

x-component:

$x=V_{o}cos\theta t$ (1)

Where:

$x$ is the horizontal distance traveled by the venom

$V_{o}=3.10 m/s$ is the venom's initial speed

$\theta=47\°$ is the angle

$t$ is the time since the venom is spitted until it hits the ground

y-component:

$y=y_{o}+V_{o}sin\theta t+\frac{gt^{2}}{2}$ (2)

Where:

$y_{o}=0.44 m$ is the initial height of the venom

$y=0$ is the final height of the venom (when it finally hits the ground)

$g=-9.8m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity

Let's begin with (2) to find the time it takes the complete path:

$0=0.44 m+3.10 m/s sin\theta(47\°)+\frac{-9.8m/s^{2} t^{2}}{2}$ (3)

Rewritting (3):

$-4.9 m/s^{2} t^{2} + 2.267 m/s t + 0.44 m=0$ (4)

This is a quadratic equation (also called equation of the second degree) of the form $at^{2}+bt+c=0$ , which can be solved with the following formula:

$t=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}$ (5)

Where:

$a=-4.9 m/s^{2$

$b=2.267 m/s$

$c=0.44 m$

Substituting the known values:

$t=\frac{-2.267 \pm \sqrt{2.267^{2}-4(-4.9)(0.44)}}{2(-4.9)}$ (6)

Solving (6) we find the positive result is:

$t=0.609 s$ (7)

Substituting (7) in (1):

$x=(3.10 m/s)cos(47\°)(0.609 s)$ (8)

We finally find the horizontal distance traveled by the venom:

$x=1.289 m$

If an object absorbs all colors but red, we see

julia-pushkina [17]

[I researched for you, since I am not in that particular level to know that knowledge yet. I assure this is accurate info :)]

The answer is A, red.
"Remember, the color you see is light REFLECTING off the surface of that object. If all colors are absorbed in to the surface EXCEPT red, red must be reflected, and you'll see red." - Yahoo User @Chap

Can something have energy without having momentum? explain. can something have momentum without having energy? defend your answe

marta [7]

Momentum is a product mass and velocity. If a certain object posses a kinetic energy, then it should have a momentum since it is moving which has a velocity. However, if the object is at rest and only has potential energy, then it would not have momentum. So, for the first question the answer would be yes, an object can have energy without having any momentum. For the second question, every object whether it is moving or at rest, possess some energy, potential for an object at rest and kinetic for an object that is moving. Thus, the answer would be no, an object having momentum would always have energy.

Which of ONE of the following four elements has the most metallic properties?

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

12 (Magnesium- Mg)

Explanation:

Looking at the four numbers, we have:

Magnesium, Silicon, Sulfur, and Chlorine.

We can eliminate two of the answers immediately just by looking at the periodic table.

Sulfur and Chlorine are on the nonmetal side of the periodic table. So that's definitely not it. That leaves Magnesium and Silicon.

Silicon is a Metalloid. Magnesium is an Alkaline earth Metal.

Metaloids are elements that have a mix of both metal and nonmetal properties (luster, how it feels, etc.). Since it's a MIX and Magnesium is just straight METAL-

We can say Magnesium has the most metallic properties.

hope this helps!!
