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)

Find the acceleration of a hamster when it increases its velocity from rest to 8.0 m/s in 3.0 s .
Eva8 [605]
<span>Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time.
We can find acceleration a, by the following formula

a=v-u/t

where,
v is the final velocity (in this question v=8.0 m/s)
u is the initial velocity (since the hamster starts from rest, u=0)
t is the time taken (i,e 3.0 second)
now by applying the formula we have,

a = 8.0 - 0 / 3
= 8 / 3
= 2.65 m/s</span>²<span> 

The acceleration is 2.65 meters per second squared</span>

11. Reflecting telescopes are popular because they're _______ than a refracting telescope.
Anon25 [30]
I do not know what the school expects as an answer, but advantage of reflecting telescopes is that there is only one major reflecting surface, so it is quite easy to create a 6 or 8 inch telescope by an amateur, after adding on a prism and an eyepiece.  (a microscope eyepiece could be used).
MY answer would be "easier to build".  (it still takes tens of hours to grind and polish the single plane surface to a parabolic surface).

Electromagnetic waves all have the same velocity in the same medium.  However, since frequencies vary widely, so do wavelengths.
