Answer:

The horizontal component of the velocity is 21.9 m/s.

Explanation:

Please see the attached figure for a better understanding of the problem.

Notice that the vector v and its x and y-components (vx and vy) form a right triangle. Then, we can use trigonometry to find the magnitude of vx, the horizontal component of the velocity.

To find vx, let´s use the following trigonometric rule of right triangles:

cos α = adjacent / hypotenuse

cos 5.7° = vx / 22 m/s

22 m/s · cos 5.7° = vx

vx = 21.9 m/s

The horizontal component of the velocity is 21.9 m/s.

The density of lead is 11.3 g/cm3. what mass of lead is required to make a 1.00 cm3 fishing sinker?
Elza [17]

The mass of lead required to make a 1.00 cm3 fishing sinker is 11.3g.

What is mass?

Mass is a metric used in physics to express inertia, a fundamental characteristic of all matter. A mass of matter's resistance to altering its direction or speed in response to the application of a force is what it essentially is. The change that an applied force produces is smaller the more mass a body has.

Given :

Density of lead = 11.3 g/cm3

Volume of  sinker  =  1.00 cm3

One of a substance's attributes is density, which is calculated by dividing the mass by the volume. Mathematically:

Density : Mass / volume

therefore after putting the values,

mass= 11.3g

You are given a parallel plate capacitor that has plates of area 27 cm^2 which are separated by 0.0100 mm of nylon (dielectric c
deff fn [24]

Answer:

Applied voltage should be 13.5396 kV

Explanation:

The charge stored by a capacitor when subjected to a potential difference 'v' across it's plates is given by

Q=\frac{K\epsilon _{o} A}{d}V

Solving for V we get

V=\frac{Qd}{K\epsilon _{o}A}

thus to store a charge of 0.11mC we solve for V as follows

Applying values we get

V=\frac{0.11\times 10^{-3}\times 0.01\times 10^{-3}}{27\times 10^{-4}\times 3.4\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}

\therefore V=13.5396kV
