So this is easy to calculate when you split the velocity into x and y components. The x component is going to equal cos(53) * 290 and the y component is going to equal sin(53)*290.

The x location therefore is 290*cos(53)*35 = 6108.4m

The y location needs to factor in the downwards acceleration of gravity too, which is 9.81m/s^2. We need the equation dist. = V initial*time + 0.5*acceleration*time^2.

This gives us d=290*sin(53)*35 + (0.5*-9.81*35^2)=2097.5m

So your (x,y) coordinates equals (6108.4, 2097.5)

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

a) 20 seconds

b) No.

Explanation:

t = Time taken for jet to stop

u = Initial velocity = 100 m/s (given in the question)

v = Final velocity = 0 (because the jet will stop at the end)

s = Displacement of the jet (Distance between the moment the jet touches the ground to the point the point it stops)

a = Acceleration = -5.00 m/s² (slowing down, so it is negative)

a) Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-100}{-5}\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s

The time required for the plane to slow down from the moment it touches the ground is 20 seconds.

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=100\times 20+\frac{1}{2}\times -5\times 20^2\\\Rightarrow s=1000\ m

The distance it requires for the jet to stop is 1000 m so in a small tropical island airport where the runway is 0.800 km long the plane would not be able to land. The runway needs to be atleast 1000 m long here the runway on the island is 1000-800 = 200 m short.

Question 4. A tuning fork ‘A’ produces 6 beats/sec with another fork ‘B’ of un-known frequency. On
8090 [49]

Clever problem.

We know that the beat frequency is the DIFFERENCE between the frequencies of the two tuning forks.  So if Fork-A is 256 Hz and the beat is      6 Hz, then Fork-B has to be EITHER 250 Hz OR 262 Hz.  But which one is it ?

Well, loading Fork-B with wax increases its mass and makes it vibrate SLOWER, and when that happens, the beat drops to 5 Hz.  That means that when Fork-B slowed down, its frequency got CLOSER to the frequency of Fork-A ... their DIFFERENCE dropped from 6 Hz to 5 Hz.

If slowing down Fork-B pushed it CLOSER to the frequency of Fork-A, then its natural frequency must be ABOVE Fork-A.

The natural frequency of Fork-B, after it gets cleaned up and returns to its normal condition, is 262 Hz.  While it was loaded with wax, it was 261 Hz.

What are the products of a fusion reaction? Check all that apply. Lighter atoms energy heavier atoms a neutron a proton.
svet-max [94.6K]

The process by which two or more tiny nuclei unite to generate a bigger nucleus is known as a nuclear fusion reaction. Heavier atoms are products of a fusion reaction.

<h3 /><h3>What is nuclear fusion?</h3>

The process by which two or more tiny nuclei unite to generate a bigger nucleus is known as a nuclear fusion reaction.

For example, the fusion of two hydrogen atoms produces more energy than the fusion of one helium atom, and surplus energy is expelled into space upon binding.

Hence heavier atoms are e products of a fusion reaction.
