Answer:

V = 331.59m/s

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the time taken for the shell fire to hit the ground using the equation of motion.

S = ut + 1/2at²

Given height of the cliff S = 80m

initial velocity u = 0m/s²

a = g = 9.81m/s²

Substitute

80 = 0+1/2(9.81)t²

80 = 4.905t²

t² = 80/4.905

t² = 16.31

t = √16.31

t = 4.04s

Next is to get the vertical velocity

Vy = u + gt

Vy = 0+(9.81)(4.04)

Vy = 39.6324

Also calculate the horizontal velocity

Vx = 1330/4.04

Vx = 329.21m/s

Find the magnitude of the velocity to calculate speed of the shell as it hits the ground.

V² = Vx²+Vy²

V² = 329.21²+39.63²

V² = 329.21²+39.63²

V² = 108,379.2241+1,570.5369

V² = 109,949.761

V = √ 109,949.761

V = 331.59m/s

Hence the speed of the shell as it hits the ground is 331.59m/s

Beams of high-speed protons can be produced in "guns" using electric fields to accelerate the protons. A certain gun has an elec
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer: v = 2.75 * 10^7 m/s

Explanation: Since the electric field is a uniform one and the distance is small, the motion of the electron is of a constant acceleration, hence newton's laws of motion is applicable.

From the question

E=strength of electric field = 214N/c

q=magnitude of an electronic charge = 1.609* 10^-16c

m= mass of an electronic charge = 9.11*10^-31kg

v = velocity of electron.

S= distance covered = 1cm = 0.01m

a = acceleration of electron.

F = ma but F=Eq

Eq = ma.

a = Eq/m

a = 214 * 1.609*10^-16/ 9.11 * 10^-31

a = 344.32 * 10^-16/ 9.11 * 10 ^-31

a = 3. 779* 10^16 m/s²

Before the electron is accelerated, they are always not moving, hence initial velocity (u) = 0.

By using the equation of motion, we have

v² = u² + 2aS

But u = 0

v² = 2aS

v²= 2* 3.779*10^16 * 0.01

v² = 7.558 * 10^14

v = √7.558 * 10^14

v = 2.75 * 10^7 m/s.

Two point charges exert a 6.10 N force on each other. What will the force become if the distance between them is increased by a
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

0.0953125 N

Explanation:

Applying,

F = kq'q/r²................. Equation 1

Where F = electrostatic force, k = coulomb's constant, q' and q = first and second charge respectively, r = distance between the charge.

From the equation,

If both charges remain constant,

Therefore,

F = C/r²

C = Constant =  product of the two charge(q' and q) and k

Fr² = F'r'²................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: F = 6.10 N

Assume: r = x m, r' = 8x

Substitute these value into equation 2

6.1(x²) = F'(8x)²

F' = 6.1/64

F' = 0.0953125 N

Hence the new force will become 0.0953125 N

Un reloj de péndulo de largo L y período T, aumenta su largo en ΔL (ΔL << L). Demuestre que su período aumenta en: ΔT = π
Kruka [31]

Answer:

 ΔT = \pi \ \frac{\Delta L}{\sqrt{Lg} }

Explanation:

In a simple harmonic motion, specifically in the simple pendulum, the angular velocity

          w = \sqrt{\frac{g}{L} }

angular velocity and period are related

          w = 2π / T

we substitute

          2π / T = \sqrt{\frac{g}{L} }

          T = 2\pi  \ \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }

In this exercise indicate that for a long Lo the period is To, then and increase the long

          L = L₀ + ΔL

we substitute

           T = 2\pi  \ \sqrt{\frac{L + \Delta L}{g} }

            T = 2\pi  \ \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} } \ \sqrt{1+ \frac{\Delta L}{L} }

in general the length increments are small ΔL/L «1, let's use a series expansion

           \sqrt{1+ \ \frac{\Delta L}{L} } = 1 + \frac{1}{2} \frac{\Delta L}{L} + ...  

we keep the linear term, let's substitute

           T = 2\pi  \ \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} } \ ( 1 + \frac{1}{2} \frac{\Delta L}{L}  )  

if we do

           T = T₀ + ΔT

           

           T₀ + ΔT = 2\pi  \sqrt{\frac{\Delta L}{g} }  + \pi  \ \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} } \ \frac{\Delta L}{L}

            T₀ + ΔT = T₀ + \pi  \sqrt{\frac{1}{Lg} } \ \Delta L

            ΔT = \pi \ \frac{\Delta L}{\sqrt{Lg} }

What is the purpose of nucleophilic substitution reactions of akyly halides experiment?
OleMash [197]

The purpose of nucleophilic substitution reactions of alkyl halides experiment is to demonstrate in the laboratory setting Nucleophilic substitution reactions of alkyl halides.

In this it is been  aimed to observe nucleophilic substitution reactions, SN1 and SN2 will by the addition of a solvent to mixtures of alkyl halides. In order to make this experiment effective a standard procedure is being used  and noted observations while each reaction occurred.

Nucleophilic substitution reactions are an important class of reactions that allow the interconversion of functional groups. For alcohols, the range of substitution reactions possible can be increased by utilizing the tosylates (R-OTs), an alternative method of converting the -OH to a better leaving group.
