Answer:

485520 m

Explanation:

v_{o} = initial velocity of the projectile = 1360 m/s

v_{f} = final velocity of the projectile = \left ( \frac{2}{5} \right )v_{_{o}} = \left ( \frac{2}{5} \right )(1360) = 544 m/s

a = acceleraton due to gravity on moon = - 1.6 m/s²

h = Altitude of the projectile

Using the kinematics equation

v_{f}^{2} = v_{o}^{2} + 2 a h

Inserting the values

544^{2} = 1360^{2} + 2 (-1.6) h

h = 485520 m

which statements about velocity are true? check all that apply. a. for velocity, you must have a number, a unit, and a direction
satela [25.4K]
a). for velocity, you must have a number, a unit, and a direction.
Yes.  This one isn't bad.  The 'number' and the 'unit' are the speed.

b). the si units for velocity are miles per hour.
No.  That's silly. 
'miles' is not an SI unit, and 'miles per hour'
is only a speed, not a velocity. 

c). the symbol for velocity is .
You can use any symbol you want for velocity, as long as
you make its meaning very clear, so that everybody knows
what symbol you're using for velocity.
But this choice-c is still wrong, because either it's incomplete,
or else it's using 'space' for velocity, which is a very poor symbol.

d). to calculate velocity, divide the displacement by time.
Yes, that's OK, but you have to remember that the displacement
has a direction, and so does the velocity.

How is force related to math
dybincka [34]

Answer:

Newton's second law of motion describes the relationship between force and acceleration. They are directly proportional. If you increase the force applied to an object, the acceleration of that object increases by the same factor. In short, force equals mass times acceleration.

Please. Physics is so difficult.
Softa [21]

Answer:

0.010 m

Explanation:

So the equation for a pendulum period is: y=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}} where L is the length of the pendulum. In this case I'll use the approximation of pi as 3.14, and g=9.8 m\s. So given that it oscillates once every 1.99 seconds. you have the equation:

1.99 s = 2(3.14)\sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8 m\backslash s^2}}\\

Evaluate the multiplication in front

1.99 s = 6.28\sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8m\backslash s^2}

Divide both sides by 6.28

0.317 s= \sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8 m\backslash s^2}}

Square both sides

0.100 s^2= \frac{L}{9.8 m\backslash s^2}

Multiply both sides by m/s^2  (the s^2 will cancel out)

0.984 m = L

Now now let's find the length when it's two seconds

2.00 s = 6.28\sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8m\backslash s^2}}

Divide both sides by 6.28

0.318 s = \sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8 m\backslash s^2}

Square both sides

0.101 s^2 = \frac{L}{9.8 m\backslash s^2}

Multiply both sides by 9.8 m/s^2 (s^2 will cancel out)

0.994 m = L

So to find the difference you simply subtract

0.984 - 0.994 = 0.010 m
