We know, U = mgh
Substitute the known values, 
19.6 = m * 9.8 * 8
m = 19.6 / 78.4
m = 1/4

In short, Your Answer would be 1/4 Kg

Hope this helps!

In Ancient Greece, athletes competing in the long jump used handheld weights called halteres to lengthen their jumps. You are a
katovenus [111]

The halter add the distance to the jump in meters is 0.55 m.

<h3>What is projectile?</h3>

When an object is thrown at an angle from the horizontal direction, the object is said to be in projectile motion. The object which follows the projectile motion is called the projectile.

The magnitude of velocity u =10.3 m/s, angle of jumping θ = 22.8 degrees.

Components of velocity in x and y direction are

Vx = 10.3 cos 22.8 = 9.5 m/s

Vy = 10.3 sin 22.8 = 4 m/s

Maximum Range of athlete achieved using halter is given by

R = u²sin2θ /g

where, u = initial velocity, θ is the angle of projection and g is the gravitational acceleration.

Substituting the values, we get

R = (10.3)² sin(2 x 22.8 °) / 2 x 9.81

R = 7.75m

At the peak of jump you throw two 5.5 kg masses horizontally behind you such that their velocity is zero in the ground's reference frame.

The momentum is conserved in this situation,

(M+2m)Vxo =MVx'

Vx' = (M+2m)/M x Vxo'

Change in x component of velocity ΔVx = Vx' -Vxo

Vxo = 2m/M x Vx

Vxo = 2 x 5.5 /78 x 9.5

Vxo = 1.34 s

Maximum height gained when final velocity is zero

Vy = 0 = Vyo -gt

time t = Vyo/g = 4/9.8 = 0.41s'

Increase in range by using of halters is

ΔR = ΔVx' x t

ΔR = 1.34 x 0.41

ΔR =0.55m

Thus, the halter add the distance to the jump in meters is 0.55 m.

Choose the correct statement below that accurately describes the shear and normal stresses in a beam. A. Shear stresses are maxi
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

A. Shear stresses are maximum at the neutral axis and normal stresses are maximum furthest from the neutral axis.

Explanation:

Normal stress :

Normal stress is defined as the stress or the restoring force that occurs on the plane when an external axial load is applied on it. For a beam the normal stress is maximum at the point furthest from the neutral axis and is zero at the neutral axis of the beam.

Shear stress :

Shear stress is a stress which occurs when the force acts on the surface of the member in a parallel direction. It changes the shape of the member.  For a beam, the shear stress is maximum at the neutral axis.

How are the strong winds associated with the tornado in diagram C product
Paul [167]

Answer:

there is no diagram, but i can try to help

Explanation:

strong winds bonding together (i.e hot and cold) help form the tornado, depending on the weather depends on how long it can go on, if more hot and cold are feeds into it, it will get faster and last longer. it is just like dust devils, it is wind and dirt mixing to make a tornado, the more wind and dirt the worst it will be

Select all that apply. Sound is a ____ wave. longitudinal transverse pressure circular
elena-s [515]
The following apply:
Sound is a LONGITUDINAL wave.
Sound is a PRESSURE wave.
Longitudinal waves are waves in which the displacement of the medium is in the same direction as or opposite direction to the direction of wave propagation. An example of longitudinal wave is sound wave. Sound wave is also considered as a pressure wave as the result of the presence of repeating patterns of high and low pressure regions moving through a medium.
