What is a type of matter made up of a combination of elements

1 answer:

7 0

A type of matter made up of a combination of elements is called a compound. for example table salt, is made up of two elements that by themselves are lethal but chemically combined cancel each other out there for becoming edible.

A projectile lands at the same height from which it was launched. which initial velocity will result

Serhud [2]

The required initial velocity that will result if a projectile lands at the same height from which it was launched is V₀ = V cosθ

First, we must understand that the component of the velocity along the vertical is due to maximum height achieved and expressed as usin θ.

The component of the velocity along the horizontal is due to the range of the object and is expressed as ucosθ.

If the <u>air resistance is ignored</u>, the velocity of the object will be constant throughout the flight and the initial velocity will be equal to the final velocity.

Hence the required initial velocity that will result if a projectile lands at the same height from which it was launched is V₀ = V cosθ

Suppose the U.S. national debt is about $14 trillion. If payments were made at the rate of $3,500 per second, how many years wou

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

It will take 126.84 years to pay off the debt

Explanation:

Total debt = $14,000,000,000,000.00

Paid $3,500 per second

Number of seconds to pay off the debt will be:

14 ×10^12 /3500

Number of seconds = 4× 10^9 seconds

Converting seconds to year:

I second = 3.171 ×10^-8 calendar year

Therefore, number of years it will take to pay off $14 Trillion =( 4 ×10^9 ) × ( 3.171 × 10^-8)

Number of years = 126.84 years

The cornea behaves as a thin lens of focal lengthapproximately 1.80 {\rm cm}, although this varies a bit. The material of whichi

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

from lens makers formula

$\frac{1}{f} =(\mu-1)(\frac{1}{r_1} -\frac{1}{r_2})$

f is focal length , r₁ is radius of curvature of one face and r₂ is radius of curvature of second face

putting the values

$\frac{1}{1.8} =(1.38-1)(\frac{1}{.5} -\frac{1}{r_2})$

1.462 = 2 - 1 / r₂

1 / r₂ = .538

r₂ = 1.86 cm .

= 18.6 mm .

b )

object distance u = 25 cm

focal length of convex lens f = 1.8 cm

image distance v = ?

lens formula

$\frac{1}{v} - \frac{1}{u} = \frac{1}{f}$

$\frac{1}{v} - \frac{1}{-25} = \frac{1}{1.8}$

$\frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{1.8} -\frac{1}{25}$

.5555 - .04

= .515

v = 1.94 cm

c )

magnification = v / u

= 1.94 / 25

= .0776

size of image = .0776 x size of object

= .0776 x 10 mm

= .776 mm

It will be a real image and it will be inverted.

A bungee jumper with mass 65.0 kg jumps from a high bridge. After reaching his lowest point, he oscillates up and down, hitting

ololo11 [35]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of a bungee jumper is 65 kg

The time period of the oscillation is 38 s, hitting a low point eight more times.It means its time period is

$T=\dfrac{38}{8}\\\\T=4.75\ s$

After many oscillations, he finally comes to rest 25.0 m below the level of the bridge.

For an oscillating object, the time period is given by :

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}$

k = spring stiffness constant

So,

$k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2m}{T^2}\\\\k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2\times 65}{(4.75)^2}\\\\k=113.43\ N/m$

When the cord is in air,

mg=kx

x = the extension in the cord

$x=\dfrac{mg}{k}\\\\x=\dfrac{65\times 9.8}{113.6}\\\\x=5.6\ m$

So, the unstretched length of the bungee cord is equal to 25 m - 5.6 m = 19.4 m
