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)

When a 10 V battery is connected to a resistor, 5 A of current flows through the resistor. What is the resistor's value?
SashulF [63]

Given data

*The value of battery voltage is V = 10 V

*The current flows through the resistor is I = 5 A

The formula for the resistor is given by the Ohm's law as

R=\frac{V}{I}

Substitute the values in the above expression as

\begin{gathered} R=\frac{10}{5} \\ =2\text{ ohm} \end{gathered}

What is the Primacy Effect? Question 1 options:
Vika [28.1K]

Answer: The primacy effect occurs when you're more likely to remember words at the beginning of a list. A suggested reason for the primacy effect is that the initial items presented are most effectively stored in long-term memory because of the greater amount of processing devoted to them.

So B would be your answer

Describe the relationship between the potential energy and kinetic energy of an object and the amount of Kinetic energy it can g
ankoles [38]

Kinetic energy of an object is the energy it contains due to movement. If an object is at rest, it doesn't have kinetic energy. If it's moving, then it has kinetic energy. It's pretty simple! The amount of kinetic energy of an object is dependent upon two variables, one being the mass of the object

The three pieces of evidence that Alfred Wegener used to support his theory that the Earth's continents are what?
rjkz [21]
Alfred Wegener, in the first three decades of this century, and DuToit in the 1920s and 1930s gathered evidence that the continents had moved. They based their idea of continental drift on several lines of evidence: fit of the continents, paleoclimate indicators, truncated geologic features, and fossils. Hope it helps
