Answer:

121.7 m/s

Explanation:

Horizontal range, R = 1420 m

Angle of projection, θ = 35°

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

let u be the velocity of projection.

Use the formula for horizontal range

R=\frac{u^{2}Sin2\theta }{g}

1420=\frac{u^{2}Sin70 }{9.8}

u = 121.7 m/s

Thus, the velocity of projection is 121.7 m/s.

Answer:

v_{o}=141.51m/s

Explanation:

From the exercise we know the final x distance, the angle which the projectile is being released and acceleration of gravity

x=1420m\\g=-9.8m/s^{2}

From the equation of x-position we know that

x=v_{ox}t=v_{o}cos(35)t

Solving for v_{o}

v_{o}=\frac{x}{tcos(35)} =\frac{1420m}{tcos(35)} (1)

Now, if we analyze the equation of y-position we got

y=y_{o}+v_{oy}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

At the end of the motion y=0

0=v_{o}sin(35)t+\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

Knowing the equation for v_{o} in (1)

0=\frac{1420}{tcos(35)}tsin(35)-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^{2}

\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^{2}=1420tan(35)

Solving for t

t=\sqrt{\frac{2(1420tan(35))}{9.8} } =14.25s

Now, we can solve (1)

v_{o}=\frac{1420m}{(14.25s)cos(35)}=141.51m/s

What us the formula of finding diameter
Over [174]

Answer:

The formula to find the diameter states the relationship between the diameter and the radius. The diameter is made up of two segments that are each a radius. Therefore, the formula is: Diameter = 2 * the measurement of the radius. You can abbreviate this formula as d=2r.

A rifle fires a 2.01 10-2-kg pellet straight upward, because the pellet rests on a compressed spring that is released when the t
Zina [86]

Answer:

The value of spring constant is 266.01 \frac{N}{m}

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of pellet m = 2.01 \times 10^{-2} kg

Height difference of pellet rise h_{f} - h_{o} = 6.03 m

Spring compression x = 9.45 \times 10^{-2} m

From energy conservation law,

Spring potential energy is stored into potential energy,

  mg(h_{f} -h_{o})  = \frac{1}{2} kx^{2}

Where k = spring constant, g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

  k = \frac{2mg(h_{f} -h_{o} )}{x^{2} }

  k = \frac{2 \times 9.8 \times 6.03\times 2.01 \times 10^{-2} }{(9.45\times 10^{-2} )^{2} }

  k = 266.01 \frac{N}{m}

Therefore, the value of spring constant is 266.01 \frac{N}{m}
