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

Therefore, the volume of the gas at temperature 100°C is 4.62L

<u />

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

Volume, V1 = 4L

Temperature, T1 = 50°C = 50 + 273K = 323K

Temperature, T2 = 100°C = 100 + 273K = 373K

Volume, V2 = ?

Using Charles law:

V1/T1 = V2/T2

4/323 = V2/373

V2 = 4.62L

Therefore, the volume of the gas at temperature 100°C is 4.62L

Astronaut A can cover 10 meters per minute walking with the heavy shovel. What does
klasskru [66]

Answer:

d) The speed of the astronaut

Explanation:

The sentence describes the speed of the astronaut. This speed value is 10meters per minute.

Now let us understand why;

  • Speed is the distance divided by time. It is a scalar quantity without regard for direction but it has magnitude.
  • The value 10meters per minute clearly shows this instance. We do not know the direction the astronaut is moving towards.
  • Velocity, like speed is the displacement of a body with time. It is a vector quantity and it shows the direction of motion.
  • For example, 10m/s due west is a velocity value because we know the direction.

Therefore, since there is no directional sense, the value indicates speed.
