The answer to this question is that non metals are volatile. Volatile means evaporating easily. Non metals have the characteristics and properties of being brittle and poor conductors of heat and electricity. Non metals are also good oxidizing agents and physically they may be in liquid, solid or gas state. Examples of non metals are carbon, sulfur, argon, neon, and hydrogen.

6. The hole on a level, elevated golf green is a horizontal distance of 150 m from the tee and at an elevation of 12.4 m above t

Georgia [21]

Answer:

u = 104.68 m/s

Explanation:

given,

horizontal distance = 150 m

elevation of 12.4 m

angle = 8.6°

horizontal motion = x = u cos θ. t .............(1)

vertical motion =

$y = u sin \theta - \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$ ................(2)

from equation(1) and (2)

$y = x tan \theta - \dfrac{gx^2}{2u^2cos^2\theta}$ ..........{3}

$12.4 = 150\times tan (8.6) - \dfrac{9.8\times 150^2}{2u^2cos^2(8.6)}$

$\dfrac{9.8\times 150^2}{2u^2cos^2(8.6)} = 10.29$

$\dfrac{9.8\times 150^2}{2\times 10.29\times cos^2(8.6)} = u^2$

$u = \sqrt{10959.34}$

u = 104.68 m/s

The initial speed of the ball is u = 104.68 m/s

A satellite in outer space is moving at a constant velocity of 20.5 m/s in the +y direction when one of its on board thruster tu

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

a) V_f = 25.514 m/s

b) Q =53.46 degrees CCW from + x-axis

Explanation:

Given:

- Initial speed V_i = 20.5 j m/s

- Acceleration a = 0.31 i m/s^2

- Time duration for acceleration t = 49.0 s

Find:

(a) What is the magnitude of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off?

(b) What is the direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off? Give your answer as an angle measured counterclockwise from the +x-axis.

Solution:

- We can apply the kinematic equation of motion for our problem assuming a constant acceleration as given:

V_f = V_i + a*t

V_f = 20.5 j + 0.31 i *49

V_f = 20.5 j + 15.19 i

- The magnitude of the velocity vector is given by:

V_f = sqrt ( 20.5^2 + 15.19^2)

V_f = sqrt(650.9861)

V_f = 25.514 m/s

- The direction of the velocity vector can be computed by using x and y components of velocity found above:

tan(Q) = (V_y / V_x)

Q = arctan (20.5 / 15.19)

Q =53.46 degrees

- The velocity vector is at angle @ 53.46 degrees CCW from the positive x-axis.

which statements about velocity are true? check all that apply. a. for velocity, you must have a number, a unit, and a direction

satela [25.4K]

a). for velocity, you must have a number, a unit, and a direction.
Yes. This one isn't bad. The 'number' and the 'unit' are the speed.

b). the si units for velocity are miles per hour.
No. That's silly.
'miles' is not an SI unit, and 'miles per hour'
is only a speed, not a velocity.

c). the symbol for velocity is .
You can use any symbol you want for velocity, as long as
you make its meaning very clear, so that everybody knows
what symbol you're using for velocity.
But this choice-c is still wrong, because either it's incomplete,
or else it's using 'space' for velocity, which is a very poor symbol.

d). to calculate velocity, divide the displacement by time.
Yes, that's OK, but you have to remember that the displacement
has a direction, and so does the velocity.
